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 ...
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 ...
Features at some significant estuaries of India
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 2001)
The river basins of India are classified into three groups on the basis of catchment areas: (1) above 20,000 km sup(2), (2) 2,000-20,000 km sup(2) and (3) less than 2,000 km sup(2). The total number of rivers under first ...
Hydrographic characteristics of the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1999)
Oceanographic studies in the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean (58-61 degrees S and 30-40 degrees E) carried out during December 1995 and March 1996 indicate a 3-layer structure typical of summer in the oceanic domain ...
Biological characteristics of Central Indian Basin waters during the southern summer
(Taylor and Francis, 2005)
Phytoplankton biomass, taxonomy, primary productivity, and photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) were studied as part of baseline data collection for prospective nodule mining in the Central Indian Basin during the ...
Biomass relations between phytoplankton and zooplankton in Goa waters
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Biomass of phytoplankton and zooplankton, measured as particulate oxidizable carbon, shows that at shallowest stations (5 m) there is large excess of phytoplankton organic carbon over zooplankton carbon in all the samples ...
Empirical relationships between phytoplankton and zooplankton biomass in Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Empirical models based on regression analysis are derived using published values of phytoplankton and crustacean zooplankton biomass from Indian Ocean. Three regression models are derived. There is significant correlation ...
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 ...
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 ...
Plankton Studies in the Estuarine and Nearshore Regions of Mandovi and Zuari
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1981)
Biological and chemical data collected for the preparation of a masterplan for pollution control in the rivers Mandovi and Zauri and the adjacent coastal area were processed to study the ecological conditions. Both ...
