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 ...
Zooplankton standing and diversity in the Gulf of Kachchh with special reference to larvae of decapoda and pisces
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1998)
Zooplankton characteristics of the Gulf of Kachchh including the major creek systems of Nakti, Kandla and Hansthal were studied for monsoon, postmonsoon and pre- monsoon periods. Zooplankton collections were made at 7 ...
Decline in biodiversity of copepods in coastal waters of Mumbai
(MEDCOAST, 2013)
Coastal waters of metropolitan cities face severe ecological threat due to sewage discharge and effluents from the industries. Copepods being the most abundant component in zooplankton some species can act as signals of ...
Assessment of biological characteristics on coastal environment of Murud (Maharashtra) during the oil spill (17 May 1993)
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1995)
A rupture of a feeder riser pipeline resulted in spillage of crude oil estimated to be 3000-8000 tonnes in Bombay High Region on 17 May 1993. The treated spill broken down into several patches and drifted south and finally ...
Biological characteristics of the Vashishti Estuary, Maharashtra (west coast of India)

Larvae of fishes and decapods found in zooplankton collections from two stations (Mankule and Patalganga) in Amba estuary adjoining Mumbai harbour were studied during 1989-90 covering three seasons. The percentage contributions ...
A comparative study on mesozooplankton abundance and diversity between a protected and an unprotected coastal area of Andaman Islands.
(Springer, 2014)
The study was carried out to understand the variability in phytoplankton production (Chlorophyll a) and mesozooplankton diversity from two different shallow coastal regions of south Andaman viz. Port Blair Bay (PBB), the ...
