A new study has revealed significant ecological degradation in the Veli-Akkulam Lake, primarily driven by bio invasion.

The study led by researchers of the University of Kerala and presented at the International Conference on Coastal Resilience (ECSA 60) in Hangzhou, China, highlighted dramatic shifts in the lake’s trophic status and food web over the past three decades.

What scientist has said on this?

Beyond ecological impacts, this shift has severely affected the livelihoods of local fishers, according to the researchers. They have recommended urgent ecosystem-based management and eco-restoration to conserve the lake, with special focus on managing invasive species.
