ALGAL BIODIVERSITY AND TROPHIC STATUS OF SOME TEMPORARY WATER BODIES OF KANPUR

摘要

Some rain-fed temporary ponds of the southern Kanpur were surveyed in post-monsoon period from October 2003 to March 2004 to examine their algal flora and ambient water characteristics. From the data obtained algal biodiversity and trophic status of these lentic water bodies were assessed using standard indices.
