Morphoecological Studies Phytoplankton of Bakchhera Dam (Rewa District) with special reference of BOD and COD

Abstract

In dam ecosystems, phytoplankton communities can be studied by adopting taxonomic-based approaches. However, these approaches suffer from identification issues and are sometimes of limited ecosystem ecological value. The recent development of functional approaches may allow an evaluation of other aspects of ecosystem quality, functions and interactions with abiotic parameters or other communities. In the present work phytoplankton of Bakchhera Dam of Rewa district Madhya Pradesh was investigated and various morphoecological parameters such as BOS and COD was reported.
