Macroalgal release of dissolved organic carbon in coral reef and its interaction with the bacteria associated with the coral Porites lutea

Manikandan, B.; Alen, M.T.; Shetye, S.S.; Balamurugan, S.; Mohandass, C.; Nandakumar, K. (Springer, 2021)

Macroalgae supersede corals in the reefs worldwide, converting the coral-dominant systems into algal-dominant ones. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) released by macroalgae play a prominent role in degrading the coral reefs ...

Macroalgal susceptibility to grazing by herbivore fish Siganus spp. at Gulf of Mannar reef, Indian Ocean

Manikandan, B.; Yuvarani, S.; Anto, V.; Ashokraj, A.; Mohandass, C.A. (Springer, 2022)

Enhancing the herbivore fish stock is envisaged as a mitigation tool to reverse the macroalgal dominance in a coral reef environment. However, identifying the key species of herbivore fish that significantly controls the ...

Macrobenthic abundance in the vicinity of spreading ridge environment in Central Indian Ocean

Ingole, B.S. (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2003)

Macrofaunal communities of the Central Indian Ocean were evaluated for their composition, distribution, abundance and biomass. The fauna comprised of 24 major groups belonging to 15 phyla. The density of macrofauna varied ...
