Abstract excerpt
Ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation is a critical environmental stressor that affects aquatic organisms, particularly during vulnerable early life stages. This study investigated the effects of low ambient UVB exposure (1.0 W/m2, corresponding to 6-12% of ambient summer UVB in the low-to-mid altitudes of the Indian Himalayas) on the sac-fry larvae of golden mahseer (Tor putitora) over a 7-day period. Four experimental...
