Climate Change On Saroornagar Lake, Andhra Pradesh, India

This paper discussed clearly the range, average and seasonal variations of pH, Dissolved Oxygen, Alkalinity, Bicarbonates, Chlorides, Nitrites, Phosphates and Oxidisable Orgnic Matter in Saroornagar Lake during the years September 2011 to August 2012. Progression of trophy was seen in pH, Nitrites and Phosphates. pH was shifting more towards acidic which may cause irritation to the organisms living in Saroornagar Lake. Nitrites increased 20,000 times and Phosphates 4,150 times. Steps must be taken to curb further encroachment by housing colonies and dumping of untreated sewage into the lake. This increase in nitrogen and phosphates add to eutrophication or trophy of the lake which in course of time cause death or disappearance.
