Life history of the ghost shrimp, Callianassa japonica ortmann (Decapoda: Thalassinidea), on an intertidal sandflat in western Kyushu, Japan
(Elsevier, 1997)
Growth, density, survival, and reproduction were examined for the population of the ghost shrimp, Callianassa japonica, inhabiting an intertidal sandflat in western Kyushu, Japan, based on samples collected from May, 1989 ...
Response of benthic fauna to different pollutants: Some case studies and relevance of benthos to environmental impact assessment
(Discovery Publishing House, 2003)
With rapid rate of urbanization, industrial growth and varieties of anthropogenic changes, the use of biological parameters as monitors of environment is being increasingly appreciated. As compared to plant, the animal ...
Effect of an oil spill from MV Sea Transporter on intertidal meiofauna at Goa, India
(Pergamon, 2002)
Short and long term effects of a fuel oil spill from a grounded ship "MV Sea Transporter" on meiofauna of a sandy beach of North Goa at Sinquerim and adjacent Cadolim and Calangute beaches along the central West Coast of ...
Spatial distribution of the nematodes in the subtidal community of the Central West Coast of India with emphasis on Tershellingia longicaudata (Nematoda: Linhomoeidae)
(Taylor & Francis, 2011)
Meiofaunal nematodes are among the most important components of the benthic environment. They have unusually high abundance and diversity. They are largely understudied in many parts of the world and explored very little ...
bioSearch : A glimpse into marine biodiversity of Indian coastal waters
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2013)
bioSearch is a database application developed to digitize marine biodiversity of Indian coastal waters. A user can obtain information on organism’s binomial and common names, synonyms, taxonomy, morphology, ecology, economic ...
Ecotoxicological effect of grounded MV River Princess on the intertidal benthic organisms off Goa
(Elsevier, 2006)
The ecotoxicological effects of oil spill from the grounded vessel MV River Princess on the intertidal benthic organisms of Sinquerim–Candolim beach at Goa, India were investigated. An intertidal expanse of 1 km on either ...
Macrobenthic community structure of coastal Arabian Sea during the fall intermonsoon
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
In the Arabian Sea, organic matter produced during the upwelling period reaches the seafloor by the end of the monsoon and during the fall intermonsoon period (FIM) Studies on the benthic community is lacking during this ...
Response of deep-sea macrobenthos to a small-scale environmental disturbance
(Elsevier, 2001)
To assess the possible effect of nodule mining on deep-sea environment, the Indian deep-sea environment experiment (INDEX) was undertaken in the Indian Basin. The present investigation is a part of the disturbance and ...
Response of meiofauna to immediate benthic disturbance in the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Taylor and Francis, 2000)
Twenty-four stations (12 each, during pre- and postdisturbance studies) 5300 to 5330 m deep between 10 degrees 01 and 10 degrees 03'S latitude and between 75 degrees 59' and 76 degrees 02'E longitude were sampled to study ...
Comparative account of benthic community at two different locations in the continental Antarctica
(Department of Ocean Development, India, 1996)
Data on faunal communities, abundance and biomass were collected from seven stations in the Queen Maud Land shelf, Lazarev Sea, East Antarctica and three stations in Atca Ice Port, Weddell Sea, West Antarctica. The sampling ...
