Assessing the distribution and abundance of seabed minerals from seafloor photographic data in the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)Distribution characteristics of deep-sea mineral resources such as polymetallic nodules and ferromanganese crusts are often influenced by local seafloor features such as the topographic undulations and sediment thickness. ... -
Distribution of decapod larvae in the Bombay Harbour-Thana-Bassein Creek regions
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1992)Variations in the abundance and composition of larval decapods were studied from 90 km stretch of the Bombay Harbour-Thana Creek-Bassein Creek (BHTCBC) system for a period of 15 months. The larvae belonged to Penacidea, ... -
Distribution of foraminifera in the lagoons of certain Islands of the Lakshadweep Archipelago, Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)A total of 107 foraminiferal species belonging to 29 families and 48 genera have been identified from the lagoonal sediments of Agatti, Kavaratti, Suhelipar, and Minicoy atolls of Lakshadweep. The fauna is dominated by ... -
Ecology of Benthic Production in the Coastal Zone of Goa
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)Qualitative and quantitative differences in the spatial temporal distribution and production of benthic macrofauna in pre- and post-monsoon were observed and the differences are discussed in relation to the environmental ... -
Intertidal foraminifera from Miramar-Caranzalem Shoreline, Goa
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)Quantitative analysis of foraminifera (entire and broken) revealed that Rotalina, composed of 29 species, constituted 95.18% while Miliolina, composed of 11 species, and Textulariina, with 5 species were poorly represented. ... -
Macrofauna and meiofauna of two sandy beaches at Mombasa, Kenya
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)Macrofauna and meiofauna of 2 sandy beaches having medium and fine sand particles, respectively, were investigated, quantitatively Macrofauna density was highest around high water mark and progressively decreased towards ... -
Meiobenthos of polluted and unpolluted environments of Versova, Bombay
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1984)Quantitative distribution of meiobenthic faune of Varsova (Bombay, Maharashtra, India) waters was studied at four stations during November, 1979 to December, 1980. The nearshore areas represent a typical polluted environment ... -
Meiofauna of the Andaman Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1981)Total meiofauna of the Andaman Sea, in the depth range 30-2150m was between 68 and 438/10cm2 (X-bar = 247.8). The biomass was within the range 3.57 and 32.8mg/10cm 2 (X-bar = 14.46). faunal components were maximum in sandy ... -
Quantitative analyses of pollution-indicator and pathogenic bacteria in Mumbai waters from ballast water exchange perspective
(Springer, 2005)As large numbers of ships either take in ballast from or discharge their ballast into the Mumbai Harbor region, it is pertinent to quantify microorganisms of health concerns and suggest on the suitability of water for ... -
Quantitative distribution of meiobenthos in the Gulf of Martaban, Myanmar Coast, north-east Andaman Sea.
(NISCAIR, 2014)Quantitative distribution of meiofauna in the depth range 20 to 1000 m of the Gulf of Martaban, Andaman Sea was studied from 46 stations during a synaptic survey carried out in April-May 2002 of ORV Sagar Kanya Cruise ... -
Relative abundance and diel variation of zooplankton from south west coast of India
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1993)Relative abundance and diurnal variations of zooplankton from six anchor stations along Kerala Caost, were investigated. Samples were collected during April-May 1988 at three hour intervals from depths varying between 15 ... -
