Department of Zoology, S.S.S.K.R.Innani Mahavidyalaya, Karanja (lad), Dist.- Washim, (M.S.). ABSTRACT Rotifers are the connecting link between primary producers and consumers of higher orders in aquatic food web. Yedshi lake is a rural lake in Mangrulpir Tahsil, Dist. Washim of Maharashtra and has less human interference . Quantitative and qualitative analysis of rotifer community was done on monthly basis from October 2006 to September 2007 by collecting water samples from five different spots of the lake. During the study period total 25 rotifer species belonging to 14 genera were identified. The Brachionus was recorded as the most diversified genera represented by five species . The seasonal rotifer biodiversity study showed the peak in density and diversity during summer season while lower values were observed in rainy season. Key Words : Yedshi Lake. rotifer biodiversity, seasonal variations. DIVERSITY OF SOME BLUE GREEN ALGAE FROM JAYAKWADI BIRD SANCTUARY, PAITHAN, MAHARASHTRA J.AQUA.BIOL., 24 (2), 2009 : 5 – 11.

ABSTRACT Present study was undertaken to investigate the physico-chemical characteristics and phytoplankton composition of the Bicherli pond, Beawar. Physico-chemical analysis of lake water exhibited high values of nitrate which favoured the growth of phytoplankton. Dominance of Cyanophyceae in summer and Bacillariophyceae in monsoon revealed distinct seasonal variation in the distribution of phytoplankton. The pond was found to be polluted and showed a trend of increasing eutrophication. Keywords: Physico-chemical characteristics, Phytoplankton,Correlation.

Wanganeo **, Department of Limnology, Bhopal - 462026, Madhya Pradesh. * CORD, University of Kashmir, Srinagar -190006, Jammu and Kashmir. ** Department of Zoology, S.V. College, Bairagarh, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. ABSTRACT The phytoplankton of Wular Lake was sampled from five stations from March 2002 to February 2004. All together 24 water samples were analysed with main emphasis on phytoplankton. A total of 100 species of phytoplankton were enumerated with Bacillariophyceae contributed 42 species, Chlorophyceae 43 species, Cyanophyceae 10 species, Euglenophyceae 3 species while, Dinophyceae and Chrysophyceae contributed 1 species each. The very high Nitrate and Phosphate concentration in the lake is the indication of pollution. Diversity values vary from (- 0.66) – ( -0.53) site1, ( -0.59) - ( -0.27) site2 , (- 0.57) – (-0.39) site3, ( -0.56) – (-0.46), site4, ( - 0.45) – (-0.34) site5. Statistically positive correlation was found between phytoplankton counts and dissolved oxygen. While nitrate and phosphate showed the negative correlation (NO3-N -0.34) and (PO4 –P = - 0.49). The shanon’s index indicates that the Wular Lake is eutrophic in nature. Key words: phytoplankton eutrophication Wular Lake: STUDIES ON ROTIFER FAUNA IN FRESH WATER WETLANDS (AMBONA LAKE IN YEOTMAL DISTRICT OF MAHARASHTRA J.Aqua.Biol., Vol 23 (2), 2008 : 8 - 10.

College Washim (M.S.) ** Former Director of Higher Education, Govt. of Maharashtra, Pune, Maharashtra. ABSTRACT Several authors contributed to the study of Rotifer in India (Dhanapati, 2000). However, studies on rotifer fauna from Maharashtra State are scanty (Malu, 2000; Mukhopadhya et al.,1981 and Patil 1978). Present paper describes eight species of rotifers from Ambona lake near Umarkhed, district Yeotmal, Maharashtra. The lake lies in nearly circular depression surrounding two sides by a steeply escarpment. Seven species of rotifers belonging to two genera viz., Brachionus and Keretella belonging to the family Brachionidae were recorded during the study. The study further revealed that Brachionus was the dominant genus and Brachionus calciflorus as numerically abundant species. Occurrence of Bravhionus is definite indication of Eutrophic status of the lake water. Taxonomic notes and a key for their identification are appended and there bioindicator value in the aquatic pollution studies is discussed. Key Words : Ambona Lake, Rotifer fauna.

ABSTRACT Zooplankton occupy an important position in the trophic structure and play the major role in the energy transfer in an aquatic ecosystem .An inadequate knowledge of zooplankton biodiversity is a major handicap for better understanding of life processes of fresh waterbodies.Zooplankton survey of Rishi lake of Karanja Lad and Yedshi lake of Yedshi village, District Washim ,Maharashtra was carried out from June 2005 to May 2006. In Rishi lake , out of 70 species identified ,34 species (48.57%) were represented by Rotifera, 10 species (14.08%) by Protozoa ,10 (14.08%)by Copepoda, 09 (12.85 %) by Cladocera and 07(10.00 %) by Ostracoda while in Yedshi lake zooplankton population was represented by 45 species which included 27 species (60.00 %) of Rotifera, 02 species (4.44%)of Protozoa, 08 species (17.77 %) of Cladocera, 05 species (11.11%) of Copepoda and 03 species (06.66%) of Ostracoda. Rotifer dominated both the waterbodies throughout the study period .Zooplankton biodiversity of Rishi lake was found dominant over the Yedshi lake. Key Words : Zooplankton Biodiversity, Rishi lake, Yedshi lake. ZOOPLANKTONIC ASSEMBLAGE IN THREE POLLUTED WATER BODIES OF VIRUDHUNAGAR DISTRICT, TAMILNADU. J.AQUA.BIOL., VOL. 22(1), 2007 : 18 - 21. Rajan,M.K., Mahendran, M., Pavaraj, M and S.Muniasamy, Post-graduate and Research Department of Zoology, Ayya Nadar Janaki Ammal College (Autonomous), Sivakasi – 626 214 (West) Tamilnadu. ABSTRACT A survey on zooplankton diversity of three selected polluted water bodies from Virudhunagar district, Tamilnadu was undertaken during three different seasons viz., Pre-monsoon (Aug 2005) Monsoon (Nov. 2005) and Post monsoon (Jan. 2006) to evaluate the impact of water pollution and season on zooplankton diversity. The study revealed the occurrence of seven species of Copepoda, seven species of Rotifera, five species of Cladocera and three species of Ostracoda in these habitats. Among the zooplankton population, the species of Copepoda and Rotifera were found to be dominant throughout the period of investigation. The zooplankton population shows higher density during post-monsoon and the lower during the pre-monsoon season. Key Words : Diversity, Bio-indicator, Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA). PHYTOPLANKTON DIVERSITY OF FOUR LENTIC WATER BODIES IN AND AROUND DAVANGARERE CITY, KARNATAKA J.AQUA.BIOL., VOL. 21(2), 2006 : 13 - 18. Nafeesa Begum and J. Narayana Department of P.G Studies and Research in Environmental Sciences, Kuvempu University, Jnana Sahyadri, Shimoga – 577 451, Karnataka. ABSTRACT Four Lentic water bodies in and around Davangere city were selected for the study. Water samples were collected and analysed to investigate physico-chemical characteristics and phytoplankton diversity were studied from October-2003 to September-2004. Considerable seasonal variations were noted in water temperature, pH, DO, Total alkalinity, Magnesium, Sulphate, Phosphate and Nitrate. In Hadadikere high BOD values were recorded during summer season. Total Hardness is more during winter season. In Bathikere high values of Sulphate is recorded during rainy season. TV-Station Reservoir represents lower concentration of physicochemical characteristics when compared to other water bodies. The five groups of phytoplankton comprise Chlorococcales, Diatoms, Blue-greens, Desmids and Euglenoids were recorded and seasonal variations of these groups are represented. The results of phytoplankton diversity reveals that Chlorococcales shows dominated in TV- Station Reservoir and Yelebeturkere. Similarly

    Explorer Research Article [Modi et al. , 4(12): Dec., 2013] CODEN (USA): IJPLCP ISSN: 0976-7126 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHARMACY & LIFE SCIENCES Ecological investigations of Shahwadi Wetland Nainesh R. Modi 1*, Nilesh R. Mulia 1 and Sumesh N. Dudani 2 1, Department of Botany, M. G. Science Institute, Ahmedabad, (Gujarat) - India 2, Deparment of Botany, Yuvaraja’s College, University of Mysore, Mysore - India Abstract The wetlands form important repositories of aquatic biodiversity. The diverse ecoclimatic regimes extant in the country resulted in a variety of wetland systems ranging from high altitude cold desert wetlands to hot and humid wetlands in coastal zones with its diverse flora and fauna. There are many important lakes and wetlands in Ahmedabad including Kankaria lake and Vastrapur Lake. The Nalsarovar wetland and Thol lake in the outskirts of Ahmedabad city are very important spots for migratory birds coming from different parts of the world and hence, attracts large number of tourists. However, many small and big wetlands are also present in and around the city which has not received due attention and hence, have suffered badly in the increased age of industrialization and urbanization. One such wetland is Shahwadi wetland which is situated in the heavily industrialized Narol area of Ahmedabad city. This study was undertaken to understand the ecological richness and importance of this region and highlight its degrading condition. It was found that this wetland harbors a good number of migratory birds and local birds, but is in highly degrading condition due to the negligence of local people residing in the periphery and the industries running nearby.

  • Gujarat University Journal
    Vidya (2019) Vol : 14(2) 1 Vidya (2019) Vol : 14(2) From the Editorial Desk Carried out with the help of GSLV Mk-III launch vehicle, Chandrayaan 2 was launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh. India will become the fourth country to land a spacecraft on the Moon. So far, all the landings have been in the areas close to the Moon’s equator. Chandrayaan-2 will make a landing at a site where no earlier mission has gone, i.e., near the South Pole of the Moon. It can contain clues to the fossil records of early Solar System. The primary objective of Chandrayaan-2 is to demonstrate the ability to soft-land on the lunar surface and operate a robotic rover on the surface. Scientific goals include studies of lunar topography, mineralogy, elemental abundance, the lunar exosphere, and signatures of hydroxyl and water ice. The unexplored territory gives an opportunity for the Mission to discover something new. The South Pole of the Moon holds possibility of presence of water. In addition, this area is also supposed to have ancient rocks and craters that can offer indications of history of the Moon. The launch vehicle will be carrying an orbiter, a rover named Pragyan and a lander named Vikram. And what makes this mission even more special is that the Project Director and Mission Director of the Rs 978 crore Chandrayaan-2 are both women scientists from the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). Also, it is noteworthy that 30 percent of the team leading Chandrayaan-2 are all women.

The construction was supervised and completed by his wife Shethani Harkunvar Ba. The total cost was approximately Rs. 8 lakh then a major sum. The temple is dedicated to Lord Dharmanatha, the fifteenth Jain Tirthankar. The Hutheesing Temple was created a hundred and fifty years ago by hundreds of artisans during the time a terrible drought hit Gujarat State in India, compelling hundreds of skilled artisans to migrate to Ahmedabad in search of work. The only means of livelihood for these migrant artisans was the Hutheesing Temple which supported them for a period of years. The temple apart for its rich architectural is also known for rainwater harvesting structure. Gandhi Ashram Ahmedabad Mahatma Gandhi established this Ashram in 17 June 1917. Gandhiji had driven all the major activities of independence as well as upliftment of the society from this Ashram which was popularly known as Sabarmati Ashram. He stayed in the ashram for Thirteen years before he finally proceeded for a march to Dandi to break the salt law on 12 March 1930.
