Bharatha Lakshmi1, Dr. B.T. Rao2, Dr. K. Rama Rao3, Dr. Y. Poli Naidu Professor, Department of Zoology, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam, A.P., India1 Addl. Prl. CCF, Govt. of Andhra Pradesh, India2 Assistant Professor, Govt. Degree College, Jammikunta, Satavahana University, Karimnagar, Telangana, India3 ABSTRACT: Kolleru is one of the most important and a large fresh water ecosystem situated between the two important rivers of Krishna and Godavari. It has achieved fame as a birds' heaven mainly due to high bird diversity and abundance that it supports especially in winter season. Kolleru lake which is declared as a wildlife sanctuary is a Ramsar site and also an Important Bird Area. Excellent bird reserve provides refuge for internationally important populations of wetland birds. An ornithological survey was carried out for three consecutive years 2010 - 2013 for assessing the status, diversity and distribution of avifauna. Attempts were made to cover the representative areas, in order to cover migratory and resident species, highlighting the threatened species. The lake was threatened due to demographic pressures and it is over- exploited. Fortunately, the lake has been given due protection in recent years and it resulted in improving the habitat. The lake is regaining its splendour after the state government demolished illegal fish ponds, backed by a standing order from the Hon‟ble Supreme Court of India.

Water and sediment samples were collected monthly from the study area during October 2015 to September 2016.The samples were collected from 8 sampling stations of Kolleru Lake. Sampling stations were selected based on inlet of lake, lake points and outlet of the lake. From each sampling station water and sediment samples were collected and analyzed by using AAS. Microwave digestions have been used for sample preparation method. Metal analysis in water and sediments were calculated by using AAS & ICP-OES Spectrometers. The paper discusses the analysis heavy metals of in water and sediments of 8 locations in Kolleru Lake. Result shows that high concentrations of metals, Lead, Chromium, Copper, Nickel, Iron in sediments comparatively than in water. Keywords: Kolleru Lake, Metal analysis, Physico-chemical parameters, Sampling stations, Sediments, Water. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------- Date of Submission: 22-07-2017 Date of acceptance: 05-08-2017 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- I.
