Abstract

This academic profile presents the research record of Y. Shanti Prabha in Zoology, Fisheries and Aquaculture. The documented publications address fish feeding ecology, freshwater ichthyofaunal diversity, aquatic ecosystem assessment and fish-product quality. Her research spans coastal and freshwater environments, with studies involving species diversity, water quality and biochemical changes during storage. The supplied profile records 31 documents, 36 citations and an h-index of 3, while the selected publications illustrate continuing engagement with aquatic biological research in Andhra Pradesh and related fields.

Keywords

Zoology; fisheries; aquaculture; ichthyology; fish diversity; feeding ecology; freshwater ecosystems; water quality; aquatic biodiversity; fish preservation.

Introduction

Research in Zoology, Fisheries and Aquaculture encompasses the study of aquatic organisms, biodiversity, ecosystem conditions and the biological characteristics of economically and ecologically important fish species. Prabha’s documented publications reflect these areas through investigations conducted in coastal and freshwater environments. Her work includes an early study of the food and feeding habits of Upeneus vittatus from the Visakhapatnam coast and more recent research concerning freshwater fish diversity and environmental conditions. [1]

Research Profile

The supplied scholarly profile contains 31 documents, 36 citations and an h-index of 3. The research themes demonstrate a connection between organism-level studies and broader aquatic ecosystem assessment. Particular emphasis can be seen in fish diversity, feeding behaviour, freshwater ecology and post-harvest quality. The listed publications also involve collaborative research with other scholars, indicating participation in multi-author investigations.

  • Fish biology and feeding ecology.
  • Freshwater ichthyofaunal diversity.
  • Water quality and tropical freshwater ecosystems.
  • Fish-product quality and lipid oxidation.

Research Contributions

One documented contribution examines the food and feeding habits of Upeneus vittatus from the Visakhapatnam coast, providing species-level information relevant to fish biology and coastal fisheries research. [1] More recent research examines freshwater ichthyofaunal diversity at Lakshmipuram Lake and evaluates fish diversity together with water-quality characteristics. [2] [3] Another publication investigates lipid oxidation in whole Pampus argenteus during frozen storage, linking fisheries research with aspects of food quality and preservation. [4]

Research Impact

The supplied academic metrics report 36 citations across 31 documents and an h-index of 3. These indicators provide a quantitative snapshot of the recorded scholarly output but should be interpreted in relation to publication age, database coverage and disciplinary citation practices. The publication subjects also have practical relevance to aquatic biodiversity assessment, freshwater ecosystem monitoring and fisheries-related food quality. The combination of historical and recent publications demonstrates sustained activity across related zoological and fisheries topics.

Award Suitability

The documented research portfolio corresponds to the Zoology, Fisheries and Aquaculture subject area and contains studies addressing fish biology, aquatic biodiversity, freshwater ecosystems and fisheries-related quality assessment. These themes provide an academic basis for consideration within a broad academic excellence recognition framework. The International Academic Excellence Awards identifies academic research across multiple subject areas. [6] The supplied publication record and bibliometric indicators provide documented components for an academic recognition profile, while any final award assessment remains subject to the applicable nomination and evaluation process.

Conclusion

Y. Shanti Prabha’s documented scholarly work covers zoological and fisheries research, with particular attention to fish ecology, freshwater biodiversity, water quality and fish-product preservation. Her profile records 31 documents, 36 citations and an h-index of 3. The selected publications demonstrate research activity across both coastal and freshwater environments and include collaborative investigations published between 2008 and 2025. Together, these records describe an academic profile within Zoology, Fisheries and Aquaculture.
