An overview of dinoflagellate cysts in recent sediments along the west coast of India
(NISCAIR (CSIR), 2011)
Distribution and abundance of dinoflagellate cysts in recent sediments along the west coast of India (26 coastal stations and 3 ports) is presented. A total of 47 different types of cysts and a maximum abundance of 1076 ...
Ocean currents structuring the mesozooplankton in the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Bay, southeast coast of India
(Elsevier, 2013)
We hypothesis perceptible physical barriers that exist between the deep Gulf of Mannar and shallow Palk Bay located between India and Sri Lanka, and seasonally reversing surface circulation patterns in the region have a ...
Lipid peroxide, glutathione and glutathione-dependent enzyme (GST) in mixed zooplankton from the North-West Coast of India: Implication for the use of environmental monitoring
(Academic Journals, 2011)
This work deals with an experiment on mixed zooplanktonic organisms collected from the shore water of Diu coast. The study analyzed and measured lipid peroxidation (LPX), as a marker of oxidative stress and glutathione-s ...
Influence of upwelling on distribution of chaetognath (zooplankton) in the oxygen deficient zone of the eastern Arabian Sea.
(Elsevier, 2014)
he study addresses the coupled spatial scales in the physico-chemical variables and chaetognaths in the upwelling system of the eastern Arabian Sea during the 2005 summer monsoon. We studied the taxon between 0 and 1000 m ...
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 ...
Impact of oxygen-depleted water on the vertical distribution of chaetognaths in the northeastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2011)
The influence of a thick layer of oxygen-depleted water (<0.2 ml l sup(-1)) on the abundance and distribution of chaetognaths was investigated in the northeastern Arabian Sea (NEAS), a natural oxygen-deficient system in ...
Enhanced abundance of tintinnids under elevated CO2 level from coastal Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2012)
The role of microzooplankton (MZP) in the pelagic trophodynamics is highly significant, but the responses of marine MZP to increasing CO2 levels are rather poorly understood. Hence the present study was undertaken to ...
Trace metal dynamics in zooplankton from the Bay of Bengal during summer monsoon
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2010)
Trace metal (Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb) concentrations in zooplankton from the mixed layer were investigated at 8 coastal and 20 offshore stations in the western Bay of Bengal during the summer monsoon of 2003. The ...
Ecology and Distribution of Copepods from the Salt Pan Ecosystems of Mumbai, West Coast of India
(SciTechnol, 2013)
Ecology, distribution and diversity of Copepod collected from two salt pans of Mumbai, India, are presented. Copepods, the mai zooplankton components, consisted mainly of Bestiolina similis, Acartia southwelli, Oithona ...
Trophic efficiency of plankton food webs: Observations from the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Bay, Southeast Coast of India
(Elsevier, 2013)
This paper introduces the structure and trophic efficiency of plankton food webs in the Gulf of Mannar (GoM) and the Palk Bay (PB) - two least studied marine environments located between India and Sri Lanka. The study is ...
