Microdistribution of zooplankton in the neustonic realm of the eastern Arabian Sea during southwest monsoon
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)
During the southwest monsoon season of 1987, the zooplankton distributions in the neustonic realm (upper 50 cm) of the eastern Arabian Sea were studied and compared with those in the water column. The upper microlayer ...
Brackishwater shrimp farming: Possible impacts on estuarine ecosystem
(University of Kerala, Kerala (India), 1998)
Aquaculture has been widely accepted as a practice that will supplement the capture fishery production, besides generating various types of job opportunities for the rural population. Coastal aquaculture has been given ...
Penaeid prawns and their culture in mangrove areas
(M.S. Swaminathan Research Foundation, Madras, India, 1994)
Culture of penaeid prawns in mangrove areas has been described. Mangrove ecosystem is rich in particulate organic matter or detritus. Detritus is nutritionally very rich and is the major source of food for the juvenile ...
Standing stock and biochemical composition of zooplankton in the northeastern Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1989)
During November-December 1985 - a period of this study showed significant difference in biomass (dry weight) among the coastal and oceanic waters. Ostracods were the predominant component (47 per cent) in the coastal zone ...
Zooplankton composition of the Kalpeni and Agatti atolls, Lakshadweep archiplago
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1989)
Composition of zooplankton in the lagoons was quite different from that of the sea and to a large extent, was independent of oceanic influence While copepods were dominant in the sea, meroplankton, particularly brachyuran ...

Biochemical composition of muscle tissue of females belonging to four species of penaeid prawns, viz. Metapenaeus affinis, M. dobsoni, Penaeus merguiensis and Parapenaeopsis stylifera, inhabiting the coastal waters of Goa, ...
Effect of industrial effluents on biota: a case study off Mangalore, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)
The inshore waters off Mangalore, receiving industrial effluent discharge were studied for phytoplankton, zooplankton and benthic populations, from December 1984 to May 1985. Total phytoplankton population varied from 7 ...
Biology of commercially important penaeid prawns of Goa waters
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Recruitment of Metapenaeus dobsoni from the estuary to the exploitable stock occurred at 50-60 mm size as against 70-80 mm for etapenaeus affinis and 80-90 mm for Penaeus merguiensis. Seasonal and monthly variations in ...
