Size Frequency, Length-Weight, and Length-Length Relationship of Bearded Worm Goby Taenioides cirratus (Blyth, 1860) from the Noakhali Coast, Bay of Bengal

Length-weight relationships and Fulton’s condition factors of two flatfishes, Cynoglossus cynoglossus and Cynoglossus lingua, from Cox’s Bazar coast, Bay of Bengal

“…Furthermore, LWRs are used to determine other aspects including fish health, age, and growth rates and to make regional comparisons and to assess the environmental suitability of particular species (Froese et al 2011, Jellyman et al 2013. The LWRs of various marine and estuarine fishes have been published in many regional journals based on a limited number of specimens and erroneous estimations, where intercept a and slope b of the regression for many species did not satisfy Bayesian length-weight predictions, which stemmed from inappropriate data collection methods and analysis (Siddique et al 2021a(Siddique et al , 2021b. Condition factor formulas have been developed to assist in assessing the state of fish health.…”

Pollution evaluation and health risk assessment of heavy metals in the surface water of a remote island Nijhum Dweep, northern Bay of Bengal

“…Many studies have been conducted on the distribution and occurrence of heavy metals in estuarine and coastal sediments of different rivers in Bangladesh. These studies have focused on the bioaccumulation, spatial and temporal variation, and potential sources of varying trace metals in the sediment from the Feni River estuary (Islam et al, 2018) The lower Meghna River estuary is a very important location for shery resources and acts as a breeding and nursery ground for many freshwater and marine sh species (Siddique et al 2021a). In addition, a vast amount of sh is supplied to the local and national markets from the Meghna River estuary and also plays a vital role in the livelihood of the local inhabitants.…”

Size frequency, length‐weight relationships, condition factor and relationships between fish size and otolith dimensions in the Pama croaker Otolithoides pama (Hamilton, 1822) from Lower Meghna River Estuary, Bangladesh

“…Otolithoides pama is one of the most dominant species captured by various fishing gears from the Lower Meghna River near Chairmanghat and Hatiya in Noakhali, Bangladesh. The Meghna River estuary is the largest estuarine ecosystem among the 20 estuaries throughout the Bangladesh coastal zone (Siddique et al, 2021). The productive estuarine aquatic environment facilitates breeding and nursery grounds for fishes of diverse species, noting exploratory studies on ecologically and economically important species can provide a better understanding of fish biology, facilitating effective fishery management, since the relationships between total length, body weight and otolith dimensions remain unknown for many brackish waters and marine fishes in Bangladesh.…”
