Received: 10 January 2020; Revised: 24 January 2020; Accepted: 30 January 2020 Abstract: Present study was aimed to assess the zooplankton diversity and entire ecological condition of Sarangpani pond of Bhopal city. Total of 78 zooplankton species were recorded from the ponds waters during two years of study period which consisted of Rotifera 29 species (37%), Cladocera &Protozoa 16 species each (20% each), Copepoda 13 species (17%) and Ostracoda 4 species (5%). Among all the zooplankton classes, species belongs to the class Rotifera were recorded their dominance during both the years of study. The dominance of Rotifers population in terms of quality has been recorded. Seasonal variation of zooplankton population recorded maximum species diversity of class Rotifera during summer (1st year) and winter season (2nd year). On the other hand, minimum population density was contributed by class Copepoda in all the season. Presence of various pollution indicator zooplankton species indicates and evidences the high anthropogenic pressure and direct mixing sewage from the nearby catchment in the pond waters which has accelerated the eutrophication in the Sarangpani pond.

INTRODUCTION Zooplankton provides the main food for fishes and can be used as indicators of the trophic status of water body1,2,. They provide an important link between trophic status and water quality of the aquatic ecosystems. Being a vital and important biological component of the aquatic ecosystem, zooplankton are able to reflects any environmental changes which helps us to monitor the entire ecological conditions of aquatic ecosystem. Changes in the zooplankton species composition have been used as indication of increased eutrophication of fresh waters3. Zooplankton are not only useful as bio-indicators to help us detect pollution load, but are also helpful for ameliorating polluted waters. They assume a great ecological significance in aquatic ecosystem as they play vital role in food web, nutrient recycling, and in transfer of organic matter from primary producers to secondary consumers like fishes4. Hence, zooplankton communities, based on their quality and species diversity, are used for assessing the productivity vis -a‐ vis fishery resource, fertility and health status of the ecosystem5. Generally, species composition and community structure of zooplankton in a water body is found to be fairly constant and cannot be changed for many decades, but it changes when water body is under stress pollution or eutrophication. Therefore, during the assessment of the ecological status of water bodies the species composition, quantitative characteristics of individual species and groups of zooplankton is of great importance6,7. Bhopal district has numerous aquatic resources supporting rich biodiversity. Among all the water bodies, only few references are available on the planktonic biodiversity of Sarangpani pond. Therefore, an attempt has been made to investigate the composition of the zooplankton community in Sarangpani pond during 2007-2008.The present study on planktonic fauna of Sarangpani pond will be helpful for researcher for further studies. MATERIAL AND METHODS Study Area: Sarangpani pond is also called as Piplani Pond as it is situated in the Piplani area of BHEL city of Bhopal and lies between Latitude 23º12'13.23" N and Longitude 77°25'18.31"E at an elevation of 1601ft. This is mainly used for fish culture. Due to mixing of organically enriched effluents from catchment the quality of water body has degraded. Few Dhobi Ghats are established along periphery of the pond. Apart from this, large quantities of domestic wastes from surroundings are also added into the pond. Most of the time the pond is covered with Eichornia crassipes and green algal blooms mainly composed of Cyanobacteria. For the present study a single sampling site was selected at the central point of the pond, close to floating fountain. Some important morphometric features of the Sarangpani pond were estimated and documented during present study which is given in Table 1 and the location of the pond is shown in Fig. 1. 54 J. Chem.

    WATER RESOURCES DEPARTMENT GOVERNMENT OF MADHYA PRADESH EIA & EMP {Pre- impoundment} Study on Upper Ghogra Irrigation Project on Ajnal River, District Sehore (MP) Executive Summary Prof. Ashwani Wanganeo Head Department of Environmental Sciences and Limnology Barkatullah University, Bhopal March 2013 1 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT REPORT ON PROPOSED UPPER GHOGRA DAM PROJECT Is it about doing the right thing? Or Doing things the right way? INTRODUCTION Environmental impact assessment (EIA), a systematic process to identify, predict and evaluate the environmental effects of proposed actions and projects is applied prior to major decisions and commitments being made. Under this study the social, cultural and health effects form an integral part in order to prevent, mitigate and offset the significant adverse effects of proposed undertakings. The EIS study provides information for decision-making on the environmental consequences of proposed actions; and promotes environmentally sound and sustainable development through the identification of appropriate enhancement and mitigation measures. With the infringement of the site the impacts become more complex and larger in scale thus, in order to reduce the burden of environmental impacts it becomes necessary to undertake EIA study for maintaining the sustainability of the project even after the developmental processes. The study minimizes the adverse effects that large scale development schemes have on natural resources and ecosystems. Increasingly, the scope of EIA includes consideration of all potentially significant effects -- direct, indirect and cumulative. Thus, EIA processes analyze a range of impact types within a single framework as it an efficient method for preserving natural resources and protecting the environment. It is thus anticipatory, participatory, and systematic in nature and relies on multidisciplinary input (Glasson et al ., 1994).

  • Habitat Characterization of Littoral Zone of Upper Lake, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh
    GSJ: Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2019 ISSN 2320-9186 194 Habitat Characterization of Littoral zone of Upper Lake, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh Sweta Priyam Department of Environmental Science, Barkatullah University, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. Abstract Water management is a critical issue for the survival of all organisms residing on earth. In this study, Bhopal, also famous as city of lakes, has been taken as it has number of lakes fulfilling daily needs of the city. Upper lake and lower lake, together forms Bhoj wetland and is a Ramser site and shahpura lake are three important lakes of the city serving multipurpose need of the city of drinking, agriculture etc. Biotic and abiotic interaction in aquatic and terrestrial area determines its abundance and health of the area. If any one factors gets disturbed then the whole cycle of system gets disturbed and risk the rate of survival. Therefore, it is important for each factor to be in control for sustainable development. Likewise, aquatic organisms serves important role in deciding the health of the lakes. Presence and absence of certain organisms can be indictor of pollution or pollution free environment. In the littoral zone of the lakes, habitat of the samples was surveyed by observing the flora of the area and categorizing in submerged, floating and emerged. Water parameters like temperature, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand, alkalinity, total dissolved solids, total hardness and electrical conductivity were determined and macro benthic invertebrates were identified in the area. To determine the relation, correlation coefficient was determined between the two factors, macro benthic invertebrates and 11 parameters of water.
