Sadguru Prakash Dilip Kumar Yadav

Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology  ·  Area of research: Zoology

Abstract

The present study is undertaken to assess the biodiversity of naturally occurring Bhagel Taal of Bahraich district of Uttar Pradesh. The said wetland is one of the natural fresh water reservoirs of this district and is rich in biodiversity. The data obtained during the detail survey of the study area and taal during 2016-2017 indicated that this wetland is rich in biodiversity. It has been found that management of wetland has received inadequate attention as a result, it is subject to anthropogenic pressures, including land use changes in the catchment; pollution from households, encroachments and over exploitation of its natural resources.
