  • Effect of Some Heavy Metals On
    Rec. zool. Surv. India: 107(Part-2) : 1-19, 2007 EFFECT OF SOME HEAVY METALS ON LAMPITO MAURITII KINBERG (ANNELIDA: OLIGO CHAETA) IN MUNICIPAL WASTES DISPOSAL SITE AND A RESERVE FOREST FLOOR SITE OF WEST BENGAL, INDIA A. CHOWDHURY AND A. K. HAZRA Zoological Survey of India, M-Block, New Alipore, Kolkata-700 053, India INTRODUCTION As a result of the increasing interest paid to the recycling of wastewater, municipal wastes and sewage sludge in agricultural practice, it becomes necessary to study the uptake of heavy metals in invertebrates in general and earthworm in particular. It is evident that earthworm can accumulate heavy metals from surrounding polluted soils and other media in their body (Gish and Christensen, 1973; van Hook, 1974; van Rhee, 1975; Ireland, 1979, 1983; Ash and Lee, 1980; Beyer, 1981; Beyer et 01. 1982; Kruse and Barrett, 1985). But no such work has been carried out in India. To fill up this lacuna the present study has been conducted with the following objectives: To determine whether this dominant species of L. mauritii could be use to absorb the heavy metals in contaminated soil and to compare them with a less polluted controlled reserve forest floor. MATERIALS AND METHODS Earthworm samples were collected month wise at random by digging and hand sorting method. Collected samples were repeatedly washed in water and then kept in double distilled water for 72 hours to evacuate soil from its gut. After that period earthworm samples were preserved in 10% formalin. Preserved samples were washed in double distilled water and then oven dried at 65°C for 48 hours Dried samples were crushed, weighed on a microbalance and acid (Nitric and Perchloric) digested on a hot plate.

  • The Reconstruction of Bhuj Case Study: Integration of Disaster
    The Reconstruction of Bhuj Case Study: Integration of Disaster Mitigation into Planning and Financing Urban Infrastructure after an Earthquake B.R. Balachandran Introduction to EPC and its Involvement in Bhuj The Environmental Planning Collaborative (EPC), established in 1996, is a not for profit, private, professional planning and development management company. The company provides professional consultancy services primarily to urban local bodies including municipal corporations and urban development authorities. EPC also works with a variety of other agencies involved in urban development such as state government departments, international funding and lending agencies, special purpose vehicles for urban development and non-government/autonomous organizations. Most projects are undertaken in a collaborative and participatory manner with significant involvement from the client, major stakeholders and other related agencies. EPC’s work is primarily of four types: (1) urban and regional development planning, (2) environmental and policy planning, (3) development management and (4) research and development. Immediately after the earthquake, EPC deputed its personnel in Bhuj to study the situation and initiate public consultations. This evolved into a USAID funded project entitled “Initiative for Planned and Participatory Reconstruction in Kutch” (IPPR) in collaboration with The Communities Group International (TCGI). The IPPR consisted of experiments in participatory planning at the regional level and in urban and rural communities. This was followed by a United States-Asia Environmental Partnership (USAEP)-funded project, “Atlas for Post-Disaster Reconstruction” under which EPC in collaboration with the Planning and The Reconstruction of Bhuj Development Company (PADCO) prepared maps of the four towns showing plot level information on intensity of damage, land use and number of floors.

  • Management of Lakes in India M.S.Reddy1 and N.V.V.Char2
    10 March 2004 Management of Lakes in India M.S.Reddy1 and N.V.V.Char2 1. Introduction There is no specific definition for Lakes in India. The word “Lake” is used loosely to describe many types of water bodies – natural, manmade and ephemeral including wetlands. Many of them are euphemistically called Lakes more by convention and a desire to be grandiose rather than by application of an accepted definition. Vice versa, many lakes are categorized as wetlands while reporting under Ramsar Convention. India abounds in water bodies, a preponderance of them manmade, typical of the tropics. The manmade (artificial) water bodies are generally called Reservoirs, Ponds and Tanks though it is not unusual for some of them to be referred to as lakes. Ponds and tanks are small in size compared to lakes and reservoirs. While it is difficult to date the natural lakes, most of the manmade water bodies like Ponds and Tanks are historical. The large reservoirs are all of recent origin. All of them, without exception, have suffered environmental degradation. Only the degree of degradation differs. The degradation itself is a result of lack of public awareness and governmental indifference. The situation is changing but slowly. Environmental activism and legal interventions have put sustainability of lakes in the vanguard of environmental issues. This paper is an attempt at presenting a comprehensive view of the typical problems experienced in the better known lakes, their present environmental status and efforts being made to make them environmentally sustainable. 1.1 Data India is well known for the huge variance in its lakes, but the data is nebulous.

  • Report on the Ichthyo Fauna of Anna and Madurai Districts" Tamil Nadu
    Bee. zool. $urv. India,. 89( 1-4) : 233-243, 1991. REPORT ON THE ICHTHYO FAUNA OF ANNA AND MADURAI DISTRICTS" TAMIL NADU T J.INDRA Zooloqrcal Survey of India, Madras INTRODUCTION During the years 1986-1987, Zoological Survey of India, Southern Regional Station, carried out two extensive surveys of Anna and Madurai Districts, in Tamil Nadu, under the Mopping Survey Scheme. Madurai District is traversed by the river Vaigai and its tributaries such as Theni, Surali and Moolar. These are seasonal rivers. Apart from these water ways there are few lakes i.e. Kodaikanal Lake and Berijam Lake in Anna District. Some water falls and hillstreams were also surveyed for their Ichthyo fauna. The Vaigai Dam across' Vaigai river near Madurai and Sathiar Dam also near Madurai were also surveyed. No comprehensive account on the fish fauna of Anna and Madurai Districts is available and therefore, a list of fishes from these districts is worth reporting. The data under each species includes its first reference, number of examples, their size range in mm. in standard length, area of collection, date of collection, geographical distribution and remarks (wherever variations are observed). In all there are 34 species in the present collection of 560 examples (503 adults and 57 juveniles) belonging to 9 families. Puntius arenatus (Day) is being reported for the first time from Vaigai Dam. Puntius filamentosus (Valenciennes) and Puntius mahecola (Val.) were treated as two distinct species in accordance with the findings of Selvaraj, Mathew and Abraham (1986-87). Jayaram (1981) was followed for the identification and distribution of fishes.
