- W2994352006 abstract "There is growing concern over observed declines in fish catch and therefore catch rate in coastal water bodies in Ghana which have been attributed, in part, to changes in the environment and excessive pressure on exploited fish populations. This research examined biological performance measures (abundance and growth) of estuarine fish under varying physico-chemical factors such as temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen and pH. Experimental fishing with seine net was done while specified water quality parameters were also collected simultaneously on a monthly basis for eight months in three identified salinity zones of the Volta estuary. The results indicated that temperature and salinity caused most variation in fish abundance. There were a total of 2,333 individual fishes caught in the survey. Most species examined were juveniles of marine migrants; these species ranged from 2.5 to 10 cm. This reinforces the fact that the estuarine environment serves as breeding and nursery ground for a number of fishes. The dominant fish species by number encountered were Caranx hippos, Mugil cephalus and Ethmalosa fimbriata . Fish growth was estimated using length-weight relationships and condition factor. The von Bertalanffy growth function determined for the dominant fishes indicated slow growth. Precautionary management measures should be implemented to regulate their exploitation to help sustain fish populations in the estuary and the adjacent freshwater and marine environments." @default.
