Zooplankton characteristics of the coastal ecosystem off Bombay, India
(Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission, 1998)
The nearshore waters of Bombay sustain a rich and diverse zooplankton fauna. Continuous observations for a period of 15 months indicated a variation from 0.4 to 19.9 mg C.m sup(3) (av. 4.3 mg C.m sup(-3)) in zooplankton ...
Vertical distribution of mesozooplankton in the central and eastern Arabian Sea during the winter monsoons
(Cambridge University Press, 1998)
The vertical distribution of mesozooplankton in the central and eastern Arabian Sea was investigated during the winter monsoon in 1995. Samples were analysed from discrete depth zones defined according to oxygen and ...
Mesozooplankton biomass, composition and distribution in the Arabian Sea during the fall intermonsoon: Implications of oxygen gradients
(Pergamon, 2001)
Mesozooplankton biomass and distribution of calanoid copepods were studied for the upper 500 m between 3 and 21 degrees N along an open-ocean transect in the Arabian Sea during the Fall Intermonsoon (September-October 1992, ...
Seasonal changes in suspended particulate component in Bombay High oil field (Arabian Sea)
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)
Investigation on the influence of seasonal changes in physico-chemical factors on particulate matter in the "Bombay High" region from February'85 to January'86 suggests that dominance of physical factors in monsoon largely ...
Physical forcing of biological productivity in the northern Arabian Sea during the northeast monsoon
(Pergamon, 2001)
Time-series observations at a nominally fixed location in the northern Arabian Sea (21 degrees N, 64 degrees E) during the Northeast Monsoon (winter, February) of 1997 showed the prevalence of cold sea-surface temperatures ...
Seasonal variations in carbon biomass of bacteria, thraustochytrids and microzooplankton in the northern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2005)
As a part of the JGOFS-India Programme, abundance of heterotrophic bacteria (Hbac; 0-2000 m), thraustochytrids (0-2000 m), microzooplankton (0-200m occasionally up to 300 m) as well as bacterial growth rates (0-500 m) were ...
On the possible causes of the seasonal phytoplankton blooms along the southwest coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)
Data collected off the southwest coast of India at the onset of the 1987 southwest monsoon season suggest that the commonly observed high concentrations of chlorophyll and rates of photosynthesis of the season may not be ...
Sedimentation
(JGOFS International Project Office, University of Bergen, Norway, 2002)
The Monsoonal impact on the deep ocean fluxes, organic carbon export into the ocean's interior, and the difference between the deep-sea organic carbon fluxes and sedimentary organic carbon burial rates in the Arabian Sea ...
Zooplankton ecology in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine system of Goa, west coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)
Seasonal variability in the physico-chemical features, zooplankton standing stock (biomass) and faunal composition in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine system of Goa, India, during January to December 1990 were studied. ...
Mesozooplankton of the Arabian Sea: Patterns influenced by seasons, upwelling, and oxygen concentrations
(Elsevier, 2005)
The intensive study of the Arabian Sea during the 1990s included mesozooplankton investigations by the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Pakistan, India, Germany and the United States. Several major discoveries resulted. First, ...
