Observational evidence of upwelling off the southwest coast of India during June-July 2006
(School of Naval Oceanology and Meteorology, 2007)Considerable latitudinal variability exists in the forcing mechanisms and intensity of coastal upwelling along the southwest coast of India. Present work is based on the insitu observations conducted onboard FORV Sagar ... -
Occurrence of Porphyra Vietnamensis (Bangiales, Rhodophyta) along the Goa Coast
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)The occurrence of a red alga, Porphyra vietnamensis has been studied along the Goa Coast (west coast of India). The growth period was observed during the monsoon (July-October) and optimum growth was recorded during August, ... -
On the renewal of the denitrifying layer in the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1988)A one-dimensional (vertical) advection-diffusion model has been applied to the deep layer characterized by a linear potential temperature(theta)-salinity relationship in the Arabian Sea to estimate the velocity of ascending ... -
Performance of Honeywell silicon pressure transducers
(Allied, India, 2003)Simultaneous calibration of three Honeywell pressure transducers (PPTR) at four ambient temperatures have been carried out using a novel static calibration system developed in-house. Calibration results indicated that ... -
Physical characteristics of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat, West coast of India. Part 2. Vertical homogeneity of temperature and salinity
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1982)Vertical distribution of temperature and salinity at five stations in the coastal waters off Navapur-Umbharat (Maharashtra-Gujarat coast, India) was studied over different seasons during 1978. The results showed that inspite ... -
Physical characteristics of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat, West coast of India. Part 3. Stability and dispersion
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1982)Vertical profiles of currents of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat were analysed. Dynamic stability as well as the diffusion capacity of the water columns were estimated from the vertical distribution of ... -
Physical characteristics of the Laccadive sea (Lakshadweep)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1979)Vertical profiles of currents of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat were analysed. Dynamic stability as well as the diffusion capacity of the water columns were estimated from the vertical distribution of ... -
Physical characteristics of the waters and water masses off the west coast of India during late spring
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1974)Vertical profiles of currents of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat were analysed. Dynamic stability as well as the diffusion capacity of the water columns were estimated from the vertical distribution of ... -
Physical features of Nearshore Waters off Karwar
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1980)Very little change in the hydrographic properties with depth during October 1975 to October 1976 was observed except during August-October, when waters of low temperature ( 24 degrees C), high salinity ( 35.5 ppt) and low ... -
Physical oceanography
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 2001)The chapter on physical oceanography of the Indian Ocean is written keeping in mind the graduate students and researchers. It starts with a brief introduction (citing latest expeditions) followed by the coastal and near ... -
Phytoplankton distribution in the coastal waters off Porbandar (Saurashtra)
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1988)Skeletonema costatum was the most abundant species in all the 3 stations. The distribution of Asterionella japonica was least consistent than that of Nitzschia closterium which was most consistent at Station 1. At station ... -
Population dynamics of estuarine amphipods in Cochin backwaters
(Inter-Research, 1983)Population dynamics of 11 gammarid amphipod species (belonging to 9 genera), collected from Cochin backwaters, have been studied for the first time, based on an year round collection. The species are : Corophium triaenonyx ... -
Proloculus size variation in Recent benthic foraminifera: Implications for paleoclimatic studies
(Elsevier, 1987)Ratios of dimorphic (microspheric/megalospheric) forms of Foraminifera are affected by temperature and hence are useful in paleoclimatic studies. In some cases, however, it is not possible to distinguish between the dimorphic ... -
Quaternary radiolarian faunal changes in the tropical Indian Ocean: Inferences to paleomonsoonal oscillation of the 10 degrees S hydrographic front
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, 1997)The northern Indian Ocean is characterized by three distinct surface water masses, i.e. (1) highly saline (greater than 34.5 ppt) Arabian Sea, (2) low saline (less than 34.5 ppt) Bay of Bengal and (3) a moderate salinity ... -
Reproductive behaviour of benthic foraminifera: A key to palaeoclimate
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1988)Many benthic foraminiferal species exhibit dimorphism associated with reproduction. The two resultant forms are known as microspheric and megalospheric forms. Culture studies, though limited in number, show that ratios of ... -
Seasonal variability of the temperature field off the south-west coast of India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1984)The temperature field in the coastal region off south-west India exhibits a well marked annual cycle. Around March the isotherms develop an upward tilt near the coast. The magnitude of the tilt increases continuously till ... -
Some Aspects of Prawn Ecology in Cochin Backwaters
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)Prawn population of a large perennial tidal pond and three other connected smaller ponds in the Cochin backwaters were studied in relation to the environment occurring in these ponds. While the large pond afforded a more ... -
Some observations on endemic macroalgae of the Southern Ocean
(A.P.H. Publishing Corp.; New Delhi (India), 2002)The paper summarises current level of knowledge on the endemic Antarctic macroalgae. The macroalgal adaptation to low temperature, response to different photoperiod during the season, animal-macroalgal interaction and ... -
Sound speed structure in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)Sound speed computed from annual mean temperature and salinity data of Levitus reveals that spatial variation in the Arabian Sea is greater than that in the Bay of Bengal. Maximum spatial variation of sound speed in the ... -
