Images of 261 specimens of <i>W. attu</i> were taken without harming the fish to evaluate the morphometric variation using 8 digitized homologous landmarks for truss analysis and geometric morphometrics. Size corrected morphometric variables were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), principal component analysis (PCA) and discriminant function analysis (DFA). Coefficients of all PCs were positively and negatively correlated to 31 significant (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.001) truss measurements due to variations in size and shape. Morphometric measurements lying in the head region such as head length (HL), eye diameter (ED), inter-orbital length (IOL) and snout length (SNL) contributed most to differentiate the populations in truss analysis. The ED, HL, SNL and IOL of Yamuna fish was significantly (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.001) smaller than the other fish populations. This could be attributed to the heavy pollution load in the Yamuna River and differences in the feeding regimes of fish. PCs and relative warps depicted differences in geometric analysis because of body shape variations among different river populations. The scatter plot in DFA revealed the presence of three distant and different phenotypic groups of <i>W. attu</i> among five wild river populations of fish with 70.5% and 83.9% of correct classification of fish into their original groups in truss and geometric analysis respectively. A single homogenous stock of fish was found to be in the rivers Gomti, Ganga and Hooghly because of a high level of intermixing (maximum misclassification) among the three river populations, whereas Yamuna and Pampa populations were two non-overlapping isolated groups due to negligible intermixing. These variations in the present study might be the effect of geographical isolation and river fragmentation due to the change in habitat that restricts fish movements. This is the first report on the morphometric assessment of <i>W. attu</i> that provides base line data for further confirmatory stock studies that would be useful for conservation and sustainable management of this vulnerable fish.</p>","PeriodicalId":50359,"journal":{"name":"Inland Water Biology","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138821809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The reduced species richness is observed in the sites of the maximum water heating, which, however, quickly return to the initial values in the downstream section of the river. The lethal effect of warm waters on zooplankton is mainly manifested in the summer, when the natural warming of the river waters is influenced by the heated water discharge from the Kostroma hydroelectric power plant. In autumn, the warming effect of heated waters, on the contrary, promotes the better survival of organisms. Fish reach a high abundance in the study area by the end of summer, when the juvenile leave shallow waters. In the autumn period, the fish redistribution and a significant increase in the abundance occur in the area of heated waters compared to the background sites. The results indicate the absence of an environmentally significant lethal effect. Local plankton losses are quickly compensated for due to high reproduction rates and the short-cycle development of invertebrates.

Water samples were collected seasonally from three dam’s monitoring stations. Temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, electrical conductivity, turbidity, ammonium nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, nitrate-nitrogen, sulfate, total phosphorus, chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand and total hardness parameters were measured in surface waters. The Geographic Information System (GIS) was used to produce thematic maps of the investigated parameters. Stations used as point feature layers were mapped using quantitative labeling via symbology. The results were compared with Turkish Regulation, 2015 and EC Directive on the quality of fresh waters needing protection or improvement to support fish life (2006) guidelines. According to the results of the analysis, Dams that are located one after the other contribute to the partial cleaning of the water by resting. Sarıyar, Gökçekaya, and Yenice Dams were built on the Sakarya River, which is one of Türkiye’s biggest and most significant river systems, for electric supply and utility of water for irrigation and fishery activities. Gökçekaya Dam Lake was built between Sarıyar Dam and Yenice Dam, which are situated in the same line of Sakarya River. Gökçekaya and Yenice Dams are fed by Sarıyar Dam Lake and do not receive fresh water. The fact that the three dams are established one after the other aids in the water’s resting and the aids in removing the suspended solids/suspended load. But, this research show that domestic, industrial, agricultural wastes carried by the branches of the rivers caused algal blooms in Dam lakes, especially which are not fed with fresh water. Due to organic pollution the decrease in dissolved oxygen, especially from time to time, negatively affects the ecological life in the lakes.</p>","PeriodicalId":50359,"journal":{"name":"Inland Water Biology","volume":"203 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138820551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
