Under management plans, impact of deweeding on aquatic biodiversity has also been dealt with. Moving from land towards aquatic habitats the cycling of process of biologically essential element viz, phosphorous has also been included as it is one of the important and essential nutrients in deciphering the productivity of the aquatic ecosystems. Looking to the importance of usage of multidimensional approaches and remote sensing for biodiversity evaluation, the papers related to these aspects have been included. Emphasis is laid on assessing the specific biodiversity aspect on both land and water. The second section has totally been devoted to the aquaculture wherein most of the essential aspect of aquaculture have been dealt with. Papers highlighting different fractions of aquaculture starting from site selection, construction of aquaculture farm, nursery management to breeding have been included besides papers giving important information regarding fish fauna, investment opportunity in aquaculture, recent advances in fish technology to integrated fish farming.
