Effectiveness of formaldehyde in Caligus infection of laboratory reared grey mullet, Mugil cephalus (L)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1982)
Mortality due to infection by a copepod ectoparasite, Caligus bombayensis (R) was recorded in laboratory reared grey mullet. Spread of infection was rapid and most of infected fish died within 4 days and the entire batch ...
Seabed habitat mapping employing single and multi-beam backscatter data: A case study from the western continental shelf of India
(Elsevier, 2012)
Acoustic backscatter from multi-beam echo-sounder (MBES) and dual-frequency single-beam echo-sounding systems (SBES) operable at 95 kHz and 33/210 kHz, respectively, were used to study the distribution of sediment texture ...
Miramar (Goa) Beach Management Project: An Oceanographic Evaluation
(IK International, New Delhi, 2009)
Miramar beach is a faunal storehouse as 50 macrobenthic species are recorded. About 80% meiobenthic communities and >50% macrobenthic communities inhabit the top 5 cm section of the intertidal zone. As such, mechanical ...
Macrobenthic abundance in the vicinity of spreading ridge environment in Central Indian Ocean
(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 ...

Temporal variation of macrofauna associated with a marine sponge, Ircinia fusca was studied from a tropical rocky shore along the West coast of India. Triplicate sponge samples (~100 g) were collected from January to ...
Biodiversity and biogeography pattern of benthic communities in the coastal basins of India
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Our understanding of coastal biogeography patterns is presently limited to certain regions and marine groups. Comprehending large-scale patterns and their underlying predictors is critical due to the changing environmental ...
