        abstract = {The presence and abundance of specific algal species are used to assess the water quality.The dominance of certain Cyanophyceae species like Oscillatoria, Anabaena, and Nostoc can be an indicator of nutrient enrichment and eutrophication. These species are known for their ability to fix nitrogen and can thrive in water bodies contaminated by agricultural runoff and domestic waste. Studies have shown that some areas, particularly paddy fields, have a high concentration of nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria, which can be a valuable natural fertilizer. the Trimbakeshwar region, particularly its freshwater bodies and paddy fields, is home to a rich and diverse algal flora, with Cyanophyceae and Chlorophyceae being the most prevalent groups. The distribution of these algae is closely linked to environmental factors and serves as a valuable indicator of water quality and pollution levels.},
