Response of benthic fauna to different pollutants: Some case studies and relevance of benthos to environmental impact assessment
(Discovery Publishing House, 2003)
With rapid rate of urbanization, industrial growth and varieties of anthropogenic changes, the use of biological parameters as monitors of environment is being increasingly appreciated. As compared to plant, the animal ...
Macrozooplankton biomass in the deep scattering layer of the Indian EEZ.
(Marine Biological Association of India, 2009)
The surveys conducted on board FORV Sagar Sampada during 1998-2002 on the Deep Scattering Layer (DSL) revealed a wide spectrum of macrozooplankton in the sonic layers of the oceanic and pelagic realms from surface to 750 ...
Climate fluctuations of tropical coupled systems — The role of ocean dynamics
(American Meteorological Society, 2006)
The tropical oceans have long been recognized as the most important region for large-scale ocean-atmosphere interactions, giving rise to coupled climate variations on several time scales. During the TOGA decade, the focus ...
Quantitative characteristics of the Indian Ocean seafloor relief using fractal dimension
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2007)
In this paper spectral technique has been applied for seafioor topographic data analyses from three seafioor provinces of the Indian Ocean. Study sites include West of the Andaman Island (WAT), Western Continental Margins ...
An interactive software package for validating satellite data
(Universidad de Concepcion, 2004)
Earth observation satellite launched in the last three decades have made vital contributions to the understanding of the planet. The earth system consisting of land, oceans and atmosphere is linked together by a number of ...
Corroded planktic foraminifer (Globorotalia menardii) in the southern Bay of Bengal sediment trap sample of February 1992
(Geological Society of India, 2006)
Planktic foraminiferal studies from the southern Bay of Bengal (SBBT) indicate the presence of corroded specimens of Globorotalia menardii in the deep trap at a depth of 3011 m during February-March 1992. Strangely, all ...
Impact of sea breeze on the wind-seas off Goa, west coast of India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
After withdrawal of the Indian Summer Monsoon and until onset of the next monsoon, i.e. roughly during November-May, winds in the coastal region of India are dominated by sea breeze. It has an impact on the daily cycle of ...
Can bathymetry be a discriminatory factor for the distribution of benthic foraminiferal morpho-groups in modern marine sediments?
(ONGC, India, 2000)
The foraminiferal content of one hundred eight modern marine sediment samples off Vengurla-Cochin sector (ranging in water depth from 30 to 1330 m). West Coast of India was studied. A total of two hundred four foraminiferal ...
Nutrient regimes and their effect on distribution of phytoplankton in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2008)
The seasonal dynamics of nutrient ratios and abundance of phytoplankton cells from the central (CB) and western (WB) Bay of Bengal (BOB) were studied during the fall intermonsoon (FIM; September-October 2002) and spring ...
Study of the role of microbes as source and sink of Dimethyl Sulphide in Dona Paula bay
(2008)
The present work examines the link between the distribution of DMS (P) to abiotic and biotic variables in the adjacent bay, at Dona Paula on a temporal scale both at short diurnal and long annual scales. The objective of ...
