“…In earlier study, [11] reported that the carbon sequestration capacity ranged from 442 to 1882 kg C/ha with an average value of 1018±447 kg C/ha for 9 aquaculture ponds of one place. The present study conducted for different places under different management systems for 116 numbers of ponds.…”

Considering the impact of climate change on aquaculture practices, carbon storage by fish pond sediment could mitigate some emission of greenhouse gases form the fish ponds. The potentials of carbon storage by the sediments of fish ponds of Ganjam, Keonjhargarh, and Puri districts of Odisha, Krishna district of Andhra Pradesh, Moyna and Tamluk of East Medinipur, Purulia, Bankura, Murshidabad, South and North 24 Parganas districts of West Bengal, India were estimated. It is evident from the results that with an increase in fish production, the C storage decreased. The production per crop in the present study increased from 1815±376 kg/ha to 8351±1882 kg/ha and accordingly, the C storage/kg fish decreased from 1.44±0.73 to 0.62±0.21. The three types of combined humus carbon (loosely, stably and tightly combined humus carbon) were also analyzed for some sediment in the present study. The loosely combined humus varied from 36 to 43 per cent, stably combined humus varied from 4 to 6 per cent, and tightly combined humus varied from 53 to 58 per cent, respectively. Among the three combined humus, loosely combined form constitute about 40 percent of the total soil organic carbon, and thus, carbon sequestration could be 60 percent of the total soil carbon storage.

“…It is worth to mention that, in this period, the global concern about the environment had increases due to the deleterious effects caused by the global warming, human land use and unplanned occupation and other forms of ecosystem degradation (Solomon et al, 2009). In addition, global warming is intrinsically linked to the carbon cycle because of the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere that had increased greatly due mainly to anthropogenic causes since the industrial revolution (Anikuttan et al, 2016). Thus, in this period, several articles brought the effects of climate change on zooplankton and its relation to the carbon cycle.…”

Zooplankton plays a key role in aquatic food chains. In the present study we aimed to evaluate the trends of zooplankton studies in the scientific literature published between 1991 and 2015 and also to answer the following questions: (i) Has the number of studies increased? (ii) Which are the main countries and journals that publish papers about zooplankton? (iii) Is it possible to identify temporal trends? We used the ISI Web of Science database to find articles that had the word "zooplankton" or its groups ("copepods", "cladocerans", "rotifers", "testate amoebae") in their title, abstract or keywords. The number of zooplankton publications increased over the years, but, when we removed the effect of total publications, the number of publications on copepods decreased, while publications on testate amoebae increased. The country with the most published studies was the USA and the journal was the Hydrobiologia. The keywords formed four groups, evidencing a temporal change in the main interest of the studies on zooplankton community. The oldest articles showed the interest of researches in zooplankton species description. In subsequent years, the main concern was still species description, but also ecology and other aspects. Recently, studies concerned to environmental issues, preservation and sustainability became more frequent.

“…Saline lakes and aquacultures do contribute to sequester carbon and other gas emissions (Cochrane et al, 2009) and can sequester about 0.21% of global carbon emissions annually (Boyd et al, 2010). The carbon burial capacity of utilized small lakes and ponds can compensate for greenhouse gas emissions and can bury more carbon than unutilized inland lakes, at least, that resulted from their sh productions activities (Anikuttan et al, 2016;Aralappanavar et al, 2022).…”

This study aimed at representing some biological and chemical features of Bieda lake and discussing its fisheries opportunities. The water is well-oxygenated, rich with different nutrient salts. sodium and chloride values were lower than the equivalent surface seawater. The lake characterized by species richness of phytoplankton and zooplankton. Currently, two euryhaline cichlid species, Oreochromis aureus and Coptodon zillii, inhabited the lake. Their condition factors were 1.82 and 2.03, respectively. C. zillii was very low with slight mortality during summer. The high density and high nutritional plankton communities and the dense microphytobenthic diatoms film covered the lake sediment revealed that fishes inhabiting the lake is under their carrying capacity and introducing mullet’s species is very important. The well-oxygenated water, high plankton density, diatoms biofilms, and expected salinity change evidenced that translocation and culturing of the commercially M. cephalus or C. ramada in El Bieda Lake is very advised.
