An evaluation of the problems of chlorophyll retrieval from ocean colour, for case 2 waters
(Elsevier, 1987)
A reflectance model is presented that takes into account the spectral signatures of phytoplankton, dissolved organic matter and non-chlorophyllous particles. The model is validated by comparison with observed reflectance ...
Remote sensing of oceanic primary production: Computations using a spectral model
(Elsevier, 1989)
A spectral model of underwater irradiance is coupled with a spectral version of the photosynthesis-light relationship to compute oceanic primary production. The results are shown to be significantly different from those ...
Ocean primary production and available light: Further algorithms for remote sensing
(Elsevier, 1988)
In the context of remote sensing of the ocean, the general problem of estimating water column production from surface irradiance and column chlorophyll concentration is examined, and some refinements are made to the linear ...
Extracellular products of photosynthesis in a tropical environment
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1987)
Extracellular products in the Arabian Sea averaged 0.42 g/cm2/day and represented 35% of the total carbon fixed by phytoplankton. No seasonal changes are observed during the two seasons i.e. premonsoon (Jan-Feb) and onset ...
Nitrogenous nutrients and primary production in a tropical oceanic environment
(Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science of the University of Miami, 1986)
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 ...
Particulate organic matter in the coastal and estuarine waters of Goa and its relationship with phytoplankton production
(Elsevier, 1985)
In the coastal and estuarine waters of Goa, particulate organic carbon (POC) varied from 0.52 to 2.51 mg l-1 and from 0.28 to 5.24 mg l-1 and particulate phosphorus (PP) varied from 0.71 to 5.18 mu g l-1 and from 0.78 to ...
Dissolved organic nutrients and phytoplankton production in the Mandovi estuary and coastal waters of Goa
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1984)
Total organic nitrogen (TON) and dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) in the coastal and estuarine waters of Goa, India varied from 0.6 to 47.1 mu g-at N 1-1 and 0.12 to 3.49 mu g-at P l-1 respectively. The chlorophyll content ...
Primary production in the Bay of Bengal during August 1977
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)
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 ...
Oceanography of the northern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1982)
The euphotic zone of the northern Arabian Sea ranges from 20-60 m with an average depth of about 40 m. Surface temperatures range from 22.5 to 28.5 degrees C, increasing from north to south. At 1000 m, the temperature is ...
Primary productivity of the Andaman Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1981)
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 ...
