Work done jointly by @nikita_RK21 & @Anweghosh with @RaghuChandrase1 @NirupamaSaini from @ITMERG1 on tracking algal bloom and overall ecological health of Deepor Beel covered by @Barasha_mi2 in @MongabayIndia
Toxic algae bloom driven by untreated sewage & urban run threatening #DeeporBeel 's biodiversity & its ability to support local communities. MoEFCC’s draft Eco-Sensitive Zone fails to capture the real pollution sources. @iiserkol @MongabayIndia

We report a co-dominance of cyanobacteria diatom driven algal bloom in the River Ganga; episodic inputs of nitrogen shaped the bloom @IOPenvironment @IOPPublishing @BhadPunyasloke
Check our new paper led by @RaghuChandrase1 with @Anweghosh & @Vats_Chakresh published in ERC where we report cyanobacteria diatom bloom of Microcystis and Aulacoseira spp. in the middle stretch of River Ganga @IOPenvironment @IOPPublishing @ITMERG1
