Abstract

The current work was conducted to investigate fisheries dynamics, rate of growth, and mortality, along with demographic features of Schizothorax niger using length-frequency data collected monthly from Manasbal Lake from August 2020 and July 2022. The length data for estimation was categorized into 13 bins, and population parameters were explored utilizing various options in ELEFAN I, with the best fit (Rn = 0.282) calculated by means of the FiSAT-II application. TW = 1.94 TL2.94, with a =  − 1.94, b = 2.94, and an attuned r2 = 0.77 were derived for the weight and length association. The growing performance metric (ϕ) was calculated as 2.80. S. niger harvested stock in Manasbal Lake was prevalent in length categories of 20.5 to 25.4 and 25.5 to 30.4 cm. Different growth attributes were valued utilizing length frequency statistics as L = 46.05 cm, k = 0.30/year, and t0 =  − 0.493 years. Over all mortality (Z), natural mortality (M), and fishing mortality (F) coefficients were evaluated as 1.43 year−1, 0.56 year−1, and 0.87 year−1, respectively. The fish’s average length was assessed at the culmination of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th year as 15.42 cm, 22.78 cm, 28.09 cm, 32.61 cm, 36.03 cm, and 38.53 cm, respectively. Recruitment patterns in S. niger from Manasbal Lake indicate a singular annual recruitment occurrence, exclusively observed during the month of June. The current value of the exploitation (fish harvest) ratio (E) was 0.61 by the size-transformed catch curvature method, found to be marginally lower than the maximum value (Emax) of 0.699 depicting that the species is on the brink of overexploitation, and caution is required to maintain sustainability. The seasonal analysis of water quality parameters revealed that except for pH and free carbon dioxide, the other parameters showed pronounced temporal variations. Total alkalinity values were reflective of hard water type of the lake, and dissolved oxygen and free carbon dioxide values were reported to be suitable for S. niger.

克什米尔-喜马拉雅玛纳斯巴尔湖黑裂胸鲑(Alghad snowtrout)水质及种群评价
目前的工作是利用从2020年8月到2022年7月每月从马纳斯巴尔湖收集的长度-频率数据,调查渔业动态、增长率、死亡率以及尼日尔裂胸鱼的人口特征。将待估计的长度数据分为13个bin,并利用ELEFAN I中的各种选项探索种群参数,通过应用FiSAT-II计算出最佳拟合(Rn = 0.282)。TW = 1.94 TL2.94, a = - 1.94, b = 2.94,调整后的r2 = 0.77为体重和长度的关联。生长性能指标(ϕ)计算为2.80。马纳斯巴尔湖收获的尼日尔黑蛇种群在20.5 ~ 25.4 cm和25.5 ~ 30.4 cm之间普遍存在。利用长度频率统计对不同生长属性进行评价,L∞= 46.05 cm, k = 0.30/year, t0 =−0.493 years。总体死亡率(Z)、自然死亡率(M)和捕捞死亡率(F)的系数分别为1.43年、0.56年和0.87年。第1年、第2年、第3年、第4年、第5年和第6年的平均体长分别为15.42 cm、22.78 cm、28.09 cm、32.61 cm、36.03 cm和38.53 cm。从马纳斯巴尔湖在南尼日尔的征聘模式表明每年征聘一次,只在6月份进行。利用尺寸转换渔获曲率法得到的开发(渔获)比(E)的当前值为0.61,略低于最大值(Emax) 0.699,表明该物种处于过度开发的边缘,需要谨慎保持可持续性。水质参数的季节分析表明,除pH和游离二氧化碳外,其他参数均有明显的时间变化。总碱度值反映了湖泊的硬水类型,溶解氧值和游离二氧化碳值适合黑曲霉。
