Phytoplankton cell numbers and chlorophyll a determinations were made during the premonsoon, monsoon and postmonsoon periods in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine complex (west coast of India). Primary productivity estimates ...

Measurements of the concentrations of nitrogenous nutrients and primary production were made at 10 stations along 8 degrees N and 10 degrees N in the tropical oceanic Lakshadweep waters Inorganic nitrogen (NO3, NO2 and ...

Phytoplankton blooms comprising mainly of diatoms and dinoflagellates (approx. 0.55 million cell/l) and intense zooplankton swarms (biomass approx. 5.34 ml/m@u3@@) were observed in the Mandovi and Zuari estuarine environment ...

Primary production, chlorophyll @ia@@, phaeophytin, phytoplankton and particulate organic carbon (POC) were studied at 14 stations in the Bay of Bengal during August 1977. Column primary production, chlorophyll @ia@@, and ...

Distribution of chl a at surface closely corresponds to the surface flow patterns. Integral mean concentration (IMC) of chl a in inshore waters (depth 200 m) is double than that in the offshore waters (depth 200 m) while ...

The average surface and column primary productivity, chl a and particulate organic carbon, estimated at 24 stations during Feb. 1979, were respectively 5.3 mg C/m3/d and 273 mg C/m2 /d; 0.03 mg/m3 and 3.64 mg/m2; and ...

Measurements of primary production, chlorophyll a and particulate organic carbon were made at 33, 43 and 44 stations respectively during August-September of 1978. The average surface production, chlorophyll a and particulate ...
