Abstract

The Tembhu Lift Irrigation Project (TLIP), designed to deliver Krishna river water to drought-prone Atpadi taluka, has transformed regional water availability. While supporting local agriculture, its effects on the aquatic ecosystem of freash water wetland of Atpadi especially avifaunal diversity and habitat structure are poorly understood. This study assesses changes in water quality, vegetation (macrophytes, plankton), fish assemblages, and bird populations tied to irrigation induced hydrological alteration. Using comparative field surveys, water quality analysis, and avifauna counts from pre project (2013–2015) baseline data through present post project flows, we examine biodiversity shifts and propose conservation recommendations.
