Read Abstract

It is reported that the production of Palla is greatly impacted by changes in water temperature. Moreover, changes in water temperature can affect pH and DO (dissolved oxygen) levels, two crucial factors in breeding. Different research studies have recommended that, for optimal migratory and pre-breeding congregation of Palla fish, salinity should be kept 0.1 ppm and also the depth of water ought to be above 10 m. To determine the relationship between climate change variables such salinity, temperature, dissolved oxygen, and the fish supply, there aren't any time series data or prior studies available. Further investigation into these issues is highly encouraged. For Pakistan to have better sustainable management options, greater research on the socio-ecological aspects of Palla fisheries management is also essential.
