Estimation of Recreational Value of Horton Plains National Park in Sri Lanka: A Decision Making Strategy for Natural Resources Management

Rathnayake, R. M. W.; Gunawardena, U. A. D. P. (Department of Forestry and Environmental Science University of Sri Jayewardenepura, 2011)

Horton Plains National Park (HPNP) is an area of high biodiversity and exceptional endemism receiving high visitation (166,613 visitors in 2009), both by local and foreigners. Although, tourism causes negative impacts ...
Estimation of Above Ground Tree Biomass and Carbon of Pinus caribaea (Morelet)

Subasinghe, S.M.C.U.P.; Munasinghe, G.B. (Department of Forestry and Environmental Science University of Sri Jayewardenepura, 2011)

Forests in Sri Lanka contribute to the mitigation of global climate change through sequestrating a net amount of carbon dioxide and also maintaining carbon stocks as forest biomass. This study was conducted using an ...
Solar Radiation Alters Toxicity of Carbofuran: Evidence from Empirical Trials with Duttaphyrnus melanostictus

Wijesinghe, M.R.; Jayatillake, B.A.D.M.C.; Ratnassoriya, W. D. (Department of Forestry and Environmental Science University of Sri Jayewardenepura, 2011)

In the present study we investigated the potential of natural solar radiation to alter the toxicity of a commonly used carbamate pesticide, carbofuran, on tadpoles of the Common Asian Toad Duttaphrynus melanostictus. A ...
Lead and Cadmium Removal from Aqueous Medium Using Coir Pith as Adsorbent: Batch and Fixed bed Column Studies

Amarasinghe, B.M.W.P.K. (Department of Forestry and Environmental Science University of Sri Jayewardenepura, 2011)

Coir pith was used as an alternative to commonly available adsorbents for heavy metal ion removal from aqueous solutions. Batch and fixed bed column experiments were conducted to study adsorption characteristics of Cd ...
Cadmium Induced Adverse Effects on Fry of Oreochromis mossambicus

Ranatunge, R. A. A. R.; Wijesinghe, M. R.; Ratnasooriya, W. D. (Department of Forestry and Environmental Science University of Sri Jayewardenepura, 2011)

This study investigates the effects of Cadmium (Cd) on fry of the Mozambique Tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus using standard toxicity tests. Fry were repeatedly exposed to five concentrations (0.002 – 2.0 mgl-1) of Cd and ...
Toxicity of Neem Leaf Extracts (Azadirachta indica A. Juss) on Some Haematological, Ionoregulatory, Biochemical and Enzymological Parameters of Indian Major Carp, Cirrhinus

Saravanan, M.; Ramesh, M.; Malarvizhi, A. (Department of Forestry and Environmental Science University of Sri Jayewardenepura, 2011)

In the present study, the median lethal concentration (LC 50) of neem leaf extract to Cirrhinus mrigala for 24 h was found to be 1.035 g l-l. During the study period, the haematological parameters including Hb, Hct, RBC, ...
