"The proposed book will cover the present status of fisheries and limnology of Yeldari reservoir in Maharashtra as well as it reviews the existing literature on fisheries and limnology of reservoirs. The book will serve as a baseline for any future studies as it will allow fisheries specialists and administrators to evaluate the impacts of future culture enhancements on reservoir fisheries production and yields. The study may also serve as an example for similar studies in the region, either planned or already in preparation.

The book will be useful particularly for the postgraduate students of ecology, limnology and zoology and fisheries for reference who are interested to work in the field of reservoir fisheries and limnology." (jacket)
