Research publications, projects, and teaching learning theories
have become very important to universities, institutions,
organizations, and industries. Many submissions are rejected due to
author's lack of writing and research skills. This new book
provides a quick, basic starting point to learning the needed
skills. The book discusses the statistical methods involved, covers
the development of academic writing skills for a higher impact,
teaches learning theories, and uses a structured and holistic
approach for educational research proposal development. This book
will be used by research scholars, undergraduates, postgraduates,
and anyone interested in engineering and learning the basic
academic writing skills and scientific methods needed.
Much water has flown since volumes were written on how & where
to circumvent the Game-Fish Mahseer in the earlier decades of 20th
century by HS Thomas, McDonald and their likes in India. Anglers
passionately hunt for this Tiger of water, a thrilling sport &
cherish a photograph with it. True to its name the Golden Mahseer,
is a pleasure to view because of its size and colours on back,
sides and the fins. The species (endemic to Himalaya) has never
been promoted for the sport quality, except in the northeast by Jia
Bhoreli Assam Angling Association. The threats to this species due
hydro-power needs of India, Nepal and adjoining countries, have
rapidly increased over the last decade. The series of barrages and
dams on a single river will severely fragment its habitat.
Regulation and linking of rivers in the Himalaya will adversely
endanger this species. The magnificent fish deserves a better
world, and needs attention on the lines of Project Tiger to prevent
its extinction in the Himalaya. Its cousins in the Peninsular India
are in a little better condition. This document will be the basis
for action by concerned institutions & is a hope to redeem its
glory thru increased awareness.
L was maximum in L. rohita and minimum in L. calbasu. Total
mortality (Z) of L. rohita was higher in the Tons (4.19 yr-1)
compared with the Ken (3.2 yr-1) and the Paisuni R. (3.67 yr-1). In
case of T. tor higher mortality occurred in the Paisuni (5.57 yr-1)
compared with Tons (4.28 yr-1) and Ken R. (4.08 yr-1). In case of
L. calbasu it was same in the Paisuni (1.86 yr-1) and Tons (1.86
yr-1) and lower in the Ken R. (0.98 yr-1). The exploitation rate
(E) and ratio (U) was higher in case of L. rohita in the Ken (0.77,
0.74) compared with the Paisuni (0.74, 0.72) and the Tons R. (0.56,
0.55). E and U for T. tor were higher in the Paisuni (0.82, 0.81)
compared with Tons (0.80, 0.79) and Ken (0.71, 0.70). In case of L.
calbasu also E and U were higher in the Paisuni (0.65, 0.55)
compared with Tons (0.63, 0.53) and the Ken (0.52, 0.32). L. rohita
was highly over exploited in the Ken and Paisuni R., T. tor in all
these rivers and L. calbasu in the Paisuni and Tons R. being
optimum in the Ken R. Among these three species E and U were higher
for T. tor all in the rivers.
