They are exclusively distributed in undisturbed habitats, and some have high ornamental value. The species are morphologically diverse, but face a problem of taxonomic delineation, which is further complicated by the presence of putative hybrids.

  • Assessment of Water Pollution Status in Uma Oya, Sri Lanka
    Sri Lanka J. Aquat. Sci. 20 (2) (2015): 31-38 Assessment of water pollution status in Uma Oya, Sri Lanka K.A.W.S. Weerasekara*, A.A.D. Amarathunga, R.R.A.R. Shirantha, N. Sureshkumar, W.D.N. Wickramaarachchi and S.A.M. Azmy National Aquatic Resources Research & Development Agency (NARA), Colombo 15, Sri Lanka *Corresponding author (E mail: [email protected]) Abstract Uma Oya, which has the highest watershed of the Upper Mahaweli discharges into Rantambe reservoir. Uma Oya may have been polluted as it drains a large portion of agricultural lands. A preliminary study was conducted from April to October, 2007 sampling six randomly selected sites to determine the status of water quality of Uma Oya as baseline data. pH, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity and turbidity were measured in situ, whereas the processed water samples were brought to the laboratory to determine using standard methods, nitrate- N, nitrite-N, ammoniacal-N, ortho-phosphate, total suspended solids and chlorophyll-a content. Many water quality parameters were within the tolerance limits for fish and other aquatic life. However, the Chlorophyll-a (19.93±10.4 µg/L) was slightly higher than the standard guidelines perhaps due to epilithic algae washed off from bed rocks under high water flow. Total suspended solids (17.87±17.96 mg/l) and turbidity (37.84±59.88) were higher than the standard limits for fish and aquatic life, indicating high suspended solids transported by Uma Oya water. Further studies are required in relation to the cultivation pattern of the water shed to get a clear picture about Uma Oya.

  • Analysis of Land Degradation Using Gis (With Special Reference to Welimada Divisional Secretariat Division)
    ICSUSL 2019 NEP-06 ANALYSIS OF LAND DEGRADATION USING GIS (WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO WELIMADA DIVISIONAL SECRETARIAT DIVISION) Sayoni S.P.1*, Rathnayaka H.B.A.L.2 and Hettiarachchi H.K.U.3 1Department of Economics and Statistics, Sabaragamuwa University of Sri Lanka. 2Department of Geography and Environmental Management, Sabaragamuwa University of Sri Lanka 3Mahaweli Authority of Sri Lanka ∗[email protected] Land degradation is one of the major global problems identified at present. According to the World Food and Agriculture Organization’s assessment of land degradation, about 50% of the total land in Sri Lanka has been degraded. In the Badulla District, it has been identified that 54.8% of the total area has been affected by soil erosion. Accordingly, the objective of this study was to identify the intensity of land degradation and the areas related to the Welimada Divisional Secretariat Division (DSD) located in the Badulla District. For this purpose maps such as soil map, altitude map, slope map, rainfall map and land use map are grouped. Subse- quent maps were analyzed using the weighted overlay method. The final map was divided into five sections from very low to very high. Consequently, Ambewela and Alakolagala areas in the northeast corner of the Welimada DSD area and the Ohiya Estate and Maligawaththa in the south corner of the Welimada DSD were identified as high risk areas. According to the research, the highest risk areas were 1828.8 hectares, representing 9.48% of the total land area. Further, the high risk area was 10159.5 hectares which was 52.68% of the total land area.
