A new record of Scylla olivacea (Dcapoda, Bachyura, Prtunidae) from Goa, central west coast of India – A comparative diagnosis
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2013)
Taxonomic studies on mud crabs (Scylla) reveal considerable ambiguity in species identification owing to overlap of morphological characters. Present study consists a new record of Scylla olivacea along with a comparative ...
Tracking the history of dinoflagellate cyst assemblages in sediments from the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2012)
In order to trace the history of dinoflagellate cyst assemblages and provide new insights in to Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) dynamics in monsoon influenced tropical environments, sediment cores were collected from four different ...
Changes in the occurrance of hard substratum fauna: A case study from Mumbai harbour, India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2010)
Intensive sampling was carried out in the marine environment of Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru ports to investigate the composition of benthic sessile population on three different occasions during 2001 to 2002. This study ...
An overview of dinoflagellate cysts in recent sediments along the west coast of India
(NISCAIR (CSIR), 2011)
Distribution and abundance of dinoflagellate cysts in recent sediments along the west coast of India (26 coastal stations and 3 ports) is presented. A total of 47 different types of cysts and a maximum abundance of 1076 ...
Understanding our seas: National Institute of Oceanography, Goa
(Current Science Association, 2015)
The present article summarizes the research done at the CSIR–National Institute of Oceanography in 2014 in ocean science, resources and technology. Significant research has been conducted on air–sea interactions and coastal ...
CHEMTAX-derived phytoplankton community structure associated with temperature fronts in the northeastern Arabian Sea..
(Elsevier, 2015)
Remotely sensed sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll associated with fronts and filaments are used in India to generate potential fishing zone (PFZ) advisories in the north eastern Arabian Sea (NEAS). However, ...
Mumbai harbour, India: Gateway for introduction of marine organisms
(Springer, 2010)
Ships have been identified as one of the important vectors in the translocation of organisms from one bioregion to another leading to bioinvasion. In this context, harbours serve as a gateway for the introduction of alien ...
Synechococcus as an indicator of trophic status in the Cochin backwaters, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2015)
Eutrophication is a major problem in coastal water bodies. Information about the trophic status of water bodies will enable proper management of coastal ecosystems. In this regard, biological organisms which are sensitive ...
Efficiency of copper and cupronickel substratum to resist development of diatom biofilms
(Elsevier, 2015)
This study on the population dynamics of fouling diatoms from a biofouling rich monsoon influenced tropical bay revealed that irrespective of the season and exposure period, the highest diatom abundance and species were ...
Characterization of Bacteria in Ballast Water Using MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry
(Public Library of Science, 2012)
To evaluate a rapid and cost-effective method for monitoring bacteria in ballast water, several marine bacterial isolates were characterized by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry ...
