Behaviour of boron in Mandovi estuary (Goa)
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)
Boron in the waters of Mandovi Estuary, Goa, India varied with tides and seasons with concentrations decreasing from mouth towards upstream. Higher concentrations of 0.51-5.83 mg kg1 and 0.03-4.42 mg kg-1 respectively were ...
Increased particle flux to the deep ocean related to monsoons
(Nature Publishing Group, 1989)
Monsoons cause seasonal reversals in the surface circulation of the northern Indian Ocean. In the Arabian Sea this results in the upwelling of nutrient-rich water along the coasts, making it one of the highly productive ...
Distribution and behaviour of fluoride in Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, central west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Fluoride concentrations in Mandovi and Zuari estuaries are regulated largely by salt water intrusion. Highest concentrations are observed during the premonsoon season, when the salt water intrusion is also the highest, the ...
Distribution of nutrients in the coastal and estuarine waters of Goa
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1987)
Concentrations of nitrate and phosphate in the coastal waters of Goa varied from 0 to 2.4 mu g at 1-1 and from 0.1 to 2.4 mu g at 1-1 respectively, during post and premonsoon periods. In the estuarine region the nutrients ...
Estuarine characteristics of the lower reaches of the River Periyar (Cochin backwater)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Lower reaches of river Periyar were studied to assess longitudinal extent of salt water intrusion into the system during different seasons and also its effect on the flushing of pollutants introduced by the industries. ...
Variations of dissolved oxygen in Mandovi and Zuari estuaries
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
During non-monsoon months the estuaries were well mixed showing uniform oxygen concentrations from surface to bottom. However, during monsoon months both the estuaries showed stratified conditions with surface water showing ...
Relationship between particulate and extracellular carbon compounds of phytoplankton photosynthesis in a tropical estuary
(Inter-Research, 1986)
The influence of seasonal environmental conditions on the formation and release of organic compounds by photosynthesizing phytoplankton was studied in a tropical estuary. The pattern of 14C fixation into the various ...
Temporal and spatial variations in particulate matter, particulate organic carbon and attenuation coefficient in Cochin Backwaters
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1989)
Nine stations over a stretch of 21 km of Periyar river estuary were sampled during January to December 1981. Particulate matter varied from 3-253 mg.1 super(1) at the surface and 24.8-257mg.1 super(1) at the bottom. ...
Particulate organic matter in shelf waters of Prinsesse Asrid Kyst, Antarctica
(Cambridge University Press, 1989)
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 ...
Studies on the behaviour of nutrients in the Mandovi estuary during premonsoon
(Elsevier, 1983)
Behaviour of silicate, nitrate and phosphate in the Mandovi Estuary was studied during the premonsoon season. The study shows that silicate is removed from the water column while nitrate showed an internal source. This ...
