Abstract
Abstract Benthic macroinvertebrates are ecological indicators used for assessment of water quality and pollution. Their abundance in water depends on its pollution tolerance. The list of Macro benthos and the distribution in seven different areas of the Mahisagar River in Gujarat, India were studied to confirm the River’s water quality. Application of biodiversity indices at various locations of the River by analyzing different available benthic macroinvertebrates provide necessary pollution information to zoologists, entomologists and ecologists for environment impact assessment studies.
期刊介绍:
The Environmental Claims Journal is a quarterly journal that focuses on the many types of claims and liabilities that result from environmental exposures. The ECJ considers environmental claims under older business insurance policies, coverage and claims under more recent environmental insurance policies, as well as toxic tort claims. Exposures and claims from all environmental media are considered: air, drinking water, groundwater, soil, chemicals in commerce and naturally occurring chemicals. The journal also considers the laws, regulations, and case law that form the basis for claims. The journal would be of interest to environmental and insurance attorneys, insurance professionals, claims professionals, and environmental consultants.
