Limnology of a pond in old Dhaka

The book "Limnology of a Pond in Old Dhaka" offers a comprehensive study of the limnological characteristics of a pond in Bangshal, Dhaka, Bangladesh. The research spans a year, from June 2010 to May 2011, and analyzes water quality based on 14 different parameters. The results reveal a remarkable diversity of phytoplankton, with a total of 132 species categorized into six different algal classes. Notably, the dominance of Chlorophyceae is highlighted, while Dinophyceae is represented by only one species. The study illuminates the seasonal fluctuations of phytoplankton populations and their interactions with environmental factors such as temperature, alkalinity, and dissolved oxygen. This detailed analysis is significant for understanding the ecological dynamics in urban waters and provides valuable insights for future research endeavors.
