This book aims to give a holistic overview of the pond ecosystem of
Indian Sundarbans. Due to climate change, the Indian Sundarbans
faces several challenges. With rising sea levels, islands are
disappearing and the increasing salinity in the water and soil has
severely threatened the health of mangrove forests and the quality
of fresh water, soil and crops. Additionally, there have been
serious disturbances to hydrological parameters in the lotic as
well lentic ecosystems. This book provides new insights into lentic
ecosystem-oriented research in the deltaic ecosystem of GBM-I
(Ganga-Brahmaputra-Meghna, Indian Delta). The major findings from
various research works are brought together, and the gaps and
future possible ways forward are outlined. The book addresses the
SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), SDG 13 (Climate Action) and SDG
14 (Life below Water), with a focus on the ecosystem services of
ponds in the Indian Sundarbans. Despite there being many studies on
riverine water, ground water and mangrove ecosystems of the Indian
Sundarbans, this book offers new insights into the pond ecosystem
of the Indian Sundarbans. The outcomes from this book can be
utilized by researchers from the inland fisheries sector,
environmental managers, professionals, and those who seek to
develop ways for making pond ecosystems sustainable.
