A study was conducted to assess the effects of different kinds of inorganic fertilizers on the production of fishes in six ponds during October to December 2011. There were three treatments with two replications under each treatment and each of the ponds was stocked with 80 fish fry. In treatments I, II and III, ponds were fertilized fortnightly @ urea 100 g decimal-1, T.S.P. 100 g decimal-1 and urea 50 g decimal-1 + T.S.P. 50 g decimal-1, respectively. Selected water-quality parameters of ponds under study were more or less similar and within the productive range. Mean phytoplankton and zooplankton densities under treatments I, II and III were 57.08 ± 1.35, 8.80 ± 0.09 and 77.29 ± 3.72, 12.88 ± 0.74 and 98.93 ± 1.61, 16.16 ± 1.75 (x103) cells L-1, respectively. The net and gross fish productions of the ponds under treatments I, II and III were 0.85 and 3.11 t ha-1 yr-1 and 1.32 and 3.58 t ha-1 yr-1 and 1.85 and 4.11 t ha-1 yr-1, respectively. Fish production under treatment III was better than those under treatments I and II because plankton population densities under treatment III was the highest. Therefore, the mixed fertilization is suitable for production of plankton that enhance growth and production of fishes. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/ijarit.v4i2.22639 Int. J. Agril. Res.

The decrease level of water quality of Brantas Watershed in Malang Raya was observed in this study. The aim of this study was to observe the decrease level of water quality of Brantas Watershed from Batu to Malang City. This study was carried out in the Brantas Watershed of Malang Raya (8 stations: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H) for 18,4 Km. The water quality parameters observed in this study were: CODmn (permanganometry), CODcr (CODmn correlation based analysis), dissolved oxygen (DO) (Winkler iodometry), TDS and electrical conductivity (EC) (EC meter), pH (pH meter), and turbidity (Turbidity meter). The result showed the value of CODmn: 1,8-10,2 mg/L, CODcr: 5,6-31,5 mg/L, DO: 4,0-6,1 mg/L, TDS: 204-289 mg/L, EC: 430-617 µS/cm, pH: 7,1-7,6, and turbidity: 2,02-10,30 NTU. There are 3 stations (A, B, and C) with 1st class water quality, 1 station (D) with the 2nd class water quality, and 4 stations (E, F, G, and H) with 3rd class water quality. The decrease of water quality in the Brantas Watershed from Batu to Malang City was up to 3 times with a decrease rate of 2,3 mg/L-1Km-1. The decomposition of organic materials in the water of Batu City and western part of Malang City is relatively better than that of central parts of Malang City which might be caused by the over capacity of recovery (Self-purification mechanism).

Seasonal variation of the plankton populations with some water quality parameters of Borobila beel, Rangpur district was carried out during July 2003 to June 2004. Total plankton ranged from 98.3×104 to 35.0×105 cells/l with mean values of 19.67±9.77×105 cells/l. A total of 51 genera of planktons were recorded belonging to Chlorophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Cyanophyceae, Euglenophyceae, Dinophyceae, Crustacea and Rotifera. Among the phytoplankton, Euglenophyceae was the most dominant group and contributing 33% of total phytoplankton in Borobila beel. The greatest abundance of phytoplankton was recorded in November with an average number 28.83×105 cells/l. The minimum abundance of phytoplankton was recorded in January (61.7×104 cells/l). Among the zooplanktons Crustacea was dominant, contributing 71% of the total zooplankton population. The abundance of zooplankton showed two peaks of which one in the month of August (81.7x 104 cells/l) and another in the month of May (16.7 x104 cells/l). Phytoplankton and zooplankton have a nominal positive relationship. Zooplankton was less increased with the increasing of phytoplankton.

Abstract The geographic information systems (GIS) play an important role in all geospatial aspects of assessment, monitoring and management of inland open water resources for strategic development in fisheries sector. In India, reservoir fisheries development is one of the flagship programme and several initiatives have been taken up towards enhancement and sustainable development. The present study investigates spatio-temporal changes in ecology and fisheries in Hirakud reservoir, Odisha build across river Mahanadi which features one of the largest dam in South Asia. The reservoir is mainly utilized for electricity generation, irrigation and offers tremendous scope to support fisheries and livelihood. As per the seasonal variation analysis, water spread area was at the minimum during premonsoon period. Most of the water quality parameters including nitrate, phosphate, BOD and alkalinity were higher in the premonsoon period and overall the parameters were under favourable range for fisheries. The present investigation from the fish landing sites of the reservoir, recorded merely 40 fish species, indicating loss of fish diversity as compared to the historical reports. The IUCN conservation status showed that among the 40 species only one species, Wallago attu is under VU category and 4 species Chitala chitala, Ompok bimaculatus, Ailia colia and Bagarius bagarius are under NT category. The analysis of time series annual fish catch data using ARIMA model forecasted the increasing trend of fish production. The water quality parameters were presented in GIS platform for better understanding of the spatial variations over time. Habitat protection of fish breeding grounds, closed seasons, mesh size regulations, scientific management and community participation are recommended as the measures for conservation of fish diversity and sustainable enhancement of fish production in the reservoir.

Bayesian optimization is a sequential method that can optimize a single and costly objective function based on a surrogate model. In this work, we propose a Bayesian optimization system dedicated to monitoring and estimating multiple water quality parameters simultaneously using a single autonomous surface vehicle. The proposed work combines different strategies and methods for this monitoring task, evaluating two approaches for acquisition function fusion: the coupled and the decoupled techniques. We also consider dynamic parametrization of the maximum measurement distance traveled by the ASV so that the monitoring system balances the total number of measurements and the total distance, which is related to the energy required. To evaluate the proposed approach, the Ypacarai Lake (Paraguay) serves as the test scenario, where multiple maps of water quality parameters, such as pH and dissolved oxygen, need to be obtained efficiently. The proposed system is compared with the predictive entropy search for multi-objective optimization with constraints (PESMOC) algorithm and the genetic algorithm (GA) path planning for the Ypacarai Lake scenario. The obtained results show that the proposed approach is 10.82% better than other optimization methods in terms of R2 score with noiseless measurements and up to 17.23% better when the data are noisy. Additionally, the proposed approach achieves a good average computational time for the whole mission when compared with other methods, 3% better than the GA technique and 46.5% better than the PESMOC approach.

A study was conducted to evaluate the water quality parameters of pond water at Mymensingh Urban region. The water samples were collected from 30 ponds located at Mymensingh Urban Region during August to October 2010. The chemical analyses of water samples included pH, EC, Na, K, Ca, S, Mn and As were done by standard methods. The chemical properties in pond water were found pH 6.68 to 7.14, EC 227 to 700 ?Scm-1, Na 15.57 to 36.00 ppm, K 3.83 to 16.16 ppm, Ca 2.01 to 7.29 ppm, S 1.61 to 4.67 ppm, Mn 0.33 to 0.684 ppm and As 0.0011 to 0.0059 ppm. The pH values of water samples revealed that water samples were acidic to slightly alkaline in nature. The EC value revealed that water samples were medium salinity except one sample and also good for irrigation. According to drinking water standard Mn toxicity was detected in pond water. Considering Na, Ca and S ions pond water was safe for irrigation and aquaculture. In case of K ion, all the samples were suitable for irrigation but unsuitable for aquaculture.J. Environ.

This study was conducted in order to understand the taste and odour problems that occurred in the Seine and the Marne rivers during the severe drought of 1976. Samples were taken every 15 days from several locations in the rivers themselves and from storage reservoirs upstream from Paris. Algae and actinomycetes were identified and counted. Metabolite concentrations were measured. These data were correlated with threshold odor numbers and bacteriological water quality parameters.
