Biogeochemical characteristics of the surface sediments along the western continental shelf of India
(Taylor & Francis, 2009)
Surface sediments from the western continental shelf of India were analysed for total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN), total hydrolysable carbohydrates (TCHO) and proteins (PRT) during the late summer monsoon ...
Molecular study of the surfclam Spisula solidissima
(Narendra Publishing House, 2004)
The paper deals briefly with a technique developed for the identification of the early stages of veligers of the surfclam Spisula solidissima from the larval stages of other common bivalve species using a combination of ...
Estimates of high absolute densities and emergence rates of demersal zooplankton from the Agatti Atoll, laccadives
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 1991)
Direct sampling of the sandy substratus of the Agatti Lagoon with a corer showed the presence of vary high densities of epibenthic forms. On average, densities were about 25 times higher than previously estimated with ...
Zooplankton variability and copepod assemblage in the coastal and estuarine waters of Goa along the central-west coast of India
(Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission, 1998)
Seasonal variations in zooplankton distribution and community structure of copepod species in coastal and estuarine waters of Goa along the central-west coast of India are compared in relation to water temperature, salinity ...
Sustainable shrimp farming in India - Prospects and challenges
(CUSAT, Cochin (India), 1998)
Shrimp farming has grown into a multi-crore industry in India. It has vast potential for further expansion. However, this growing industry needs to develop appropriate indigenous technologies in specific areas to make it ...
Production of giant freshwater prawn postlarvae in penaeid prawn (shrimp) hatchery: An experience
(Fishing Chimes, 2000)
A pilot scale penaeid prawn (shrimp) hatchery was established at the National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, India in 1996 with an installed production capacity of 2 million postlarvae (PL 20) as part of the Technology ...
Parthenogenetic reproduction of Diaphanosoma celebensis (Crustacea: Cladocera): influence of salinity on feeding, survival, growth and neonate production
(Springer, 2000)
Effect of salinity on the feeding rate and parthenogenetic reproduction of asexual females of the cladoceran Diaphanosoma celebensis Stingelin was studied. Short-term (10 h) grazing experiments were conducted using Isochrysis ...
Enhanced chlorophyll a and primary production in the northern Arabian Sea during the spring intermonsoon due to green Noctiluca scintillans bloom
(Taylor & Francis, 2012)
The surface waters of the northeastern Arabian Sea sustained relatively high chlorophyll a (average 0.81+ or -0.80 mg m sup(-3)) and primary production (average 29.5+ or -23.6 mgC m sup(-3)d sup(-1)) during the early spring ...
Pollution monitoring of coastal and estuarine areas: 1. Bacterial indicators along the south Gujarat Coast
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2000)
A study was undertaken to assess the validity of enteric and supplemental bacterial indicators along the 115-km length of the south Gujarat region (India). Enteric organisms like Proteus and Klebsiella, Escherichia coli, ...
A comparative study on mesozooplankton abundance and diversity between a protected and an unprotected coastal area of Andaman Islands.
(Springer, 2014)
The study was carried out to understand the variability in phytoplankton production (Chlorophyll a) and mesozooplankton diversity from two different shallow coastal regions of south Andaman viz. Port Blair Bay (PBB), the ...
