Biomass, organic carbon and calorific content of zooplankton from the Arabian Sea off Central West coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Organic carbon content and calorific values of zooplankton varied from 18.35 to 32.49% (av. 27.8%) and from 2.56 to 4.71 k cal. g-1 dry wt (av. 3.99) respectively. Areawise off Gujarat sustained higher standing stock of ...
Unusual congregation of salps off Veraval and Bombay, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
During September to October swarming of salps occur along the coasts off Veraval and Bombay. These congregations off Veraval are contributed by the single species Pegea confoederata recording an unusual biomass as high as ...
Biomass relations between phytoplankton and zooplankton in Goa waters
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Biomass of phytoplankton and zooplankton, measured as particulate oxidizable carbon, shows that at shallowest stations (5 m) there is large excess of phytoplankton organic carbon over zooplankton carbon in all the samples ...
Empirical relationships between phytoplankton and zooplankton biomass in Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Empirical models based on regression analysis are derived using published values of phytoplankton and crustacean zooplankton biomass from Indian Ocean. Three regression models are derived. There is significant correlation ...
Zooplankton standing stock and composition in coastal waters of Goa, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1985)
Temporal and spatial variability in standing stock and zooplankton composition at 5 stations along the Goa Coast, India during 1975-76 were studied. Standing stock values ranged from 22.81 to 53.65 mg C.m/3. Zooplankton ...
Zooplankton studies in Visakhapatnam harbour and nearshore waters, east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Distribution of zooplankton biomass in the waters studied showed remarkable variations. The faunal composition was very diverse and the number of species present was more especially during late pre- and post-monsoon seasons ...
Biochemical composition and calorific value of zooplankton from northern part of Central Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Average biomass value of zooplankton obtained was 22.69 ml 100 m-3. Average percentages of lipid, carbohydrate, protein and carbon were 6.3, 6.0, 23.6 and 34.62 respectively. Calorific values ranged between 6217 and 24708 ...
Validity of zooplankton biomass estimates and energy equivalent in the Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Analysis of the published data on zooplankton biomass in the Indian Ocean reveals that due to omission of data from highly productive neritic Waters, the projected values of 519 x 10 6 tons become underestimated by 91 x ...
Diurnal variation of zooplankton in Malad creek, Bombay
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Variation in zooplankton biomass and composition in relation to the prevailing hydrographical conditions was studied for 24 h in Malad Creek, Bombay, Maharashtra, India, which was highly polluted by sewage. The adverse ...
Diurnal variation of zooplankton off Versova (Bombay)
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1984)
Physicochemical parameters and diurnal variaion of zooplankton were studied off Versova on 17/18 February 1981. Salinity and dissolved oxygen showed limited variation during the period of study. Nutrient values followed ...
