INTRODUCTION
‘Chilika’ is the largest lagoon in the subcontinent which is
situated along the east coast of India between latitude 19o
28’ and 19o 54’ N, and longitude 85o 05’ and 85o 38’E.
This is a shallow, brackish-water lake formed due to the
silting action of the Mahanadi River, which drains into the
northern end of the lake, and the northerly currents in the
Bay of Bengal, which have formed a sandbar along the
eastern shore (Arya and Lakhotia, 2006).
