Lack of seasonality in phytoplankton standing stock (chlorophyll a) and production in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2006)
The investigations in the western Bay of Bengal (BoB) during summer, winter and spring intermonsoon periods evidenced lack of pronounced seasonal variation in phytoplankton standing stock (chlorophyll a) and primary ...
The response of microzooplankton (20-200 mu m) to coastal upwelling and summer stratification in the southeastern
(Elsevier, 2008)
During the late summer monsoon (LSM), coastal upwelling and river runoff have increased the nutrient concentration in the inshore region of the southeastern Arabian Sea. This has resulted in elevated chlorophyll-a (av. 40 ...
Intense blooms of Trichodesmium erythraeum (Cyanophyta) in the open waters along east coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2003)
Two blooms of Trichodesmium erythraeum were observed during April 2001, in the open waters of Bay of Bengal and this is the first report from this region. The locations of the bloom were off Karaikkal (10°58'N, 81°50'E) ...
Differential response of winter cooling on biological production in the northeastern Arabian Sea and northwestern Bay of Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2004)
The northern parts of the twin seas bordering the Indian subcontinent, the Arabian Sea (AS) and Bay of Bengal (BOB), were studied during the winter monsoon. Higher biological production was observed in the AS (chlorophyll ...
Enhanced biological production off Chennai triggered by October 1999 super cyclone (Orissa)
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2002)
The results of physical forcings on primary production, its variation and associated hydrography of the southwestern Bay of Bengal during the southwest monsoon (July) and post-cyclone period (November) of 1999 were studied ...
Environmentally-related seasonal variation in symbiotic associations of heterotrophic dinoflagellates with cyanobacteria in the western Bay of Bengal
(Balaban Publishers, 2006)
In the western Bay of Bengal, some species of heterotrophic dinoflagellates recurrently show symbiotic associations with cyanobacteria (Synechococcus/Synechocystis). The occurrence of these associations is markedly higher ...
Hydrography and biogeochemistry of the north western Bay of Bengal and the north eastern Arabian Sea during winter monsoon
(Elsevier, 2008)
The north eastern Arabian Sea and the north western Bay of Bengal within the Indian exclusive economic zone were explored for their environmental characteristics during the winter monsoons of 2000 and 2001 respectively. ...
Red tide of Noctiluca miliaris off south of Thiruvananthapuram subsequent to the ‘stench event’ at the southern Kerala coast
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2005)
'Red tides' refer to the discoloration of the ocean surface caused by the blooming of some planktonic organisms. A few species of dinoflagellates (a group of protists) periodically form red tides along the west coast of ...
Seasonal variation of microzooplankton (20-200 mu m) and its possible implications on the vertical carbon flux in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2008)
Stratification (throughout the year) and low solar radiation (during monsoon periods) have caused low chlorophyll a and primary production (seasonal average 13-18 mg m sup(-2) and 242-265 mg C m sup(-2) d sup(-1), respectively) ...
Vertical distribution of mesozooplankton biomass in relation to oxygen minimum layer in the Andaman Sea during February 1999
(CMFRI, 2003)
Mesozooplankton biomass in the upper 1000m of the Andaman Sea was studied as part of the Marine Research-Living Resources (MR-LR) assessment programme during February 1999 providing baseline information on stratification ...
