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 stock, community structure and diversity in the northern Arabian Sea
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi, India, 1996)
The effects of large scale oil spill, which occurred during the Gulf War in 1991 on zooplankton standing stock, community structure and diversity in the northern Arabian Sea were studied. Surface (1-0 m) and vertical ...
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 ...
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 ...
Distribution and abundance of copepods in the pollution gradient zones of Bombay Harbour-Thana Creek-Bassein Creek, west coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)
Forty six species of copepods were identified, of which, 40 belonged to Calanoida with an overall dominance of Acartiidae. Acartia spinicauda, A. centrura and Centropages dorsispinatus were the common species throughout ...
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 ...
Zoolankton distribution in neuston and water column along west coast of India from Goa to Gujarat
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)
Zooplankton distribution and abundance in neuston layer and water column at 4 stansects between Goa to Gujarat during January-February, 1988 were studied. The ambient water temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen at ...
Zooplankton production, composition and diversity in the coastal waters of Goa
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)
Spatial and temporal variability in zooplankton production, composition and diversity in the coastal waters of Goa were studied. Zooplankton production was bimodal with primary peak during September-October and secondary ...
Biological characteristics of the Vashishti Estuary, Maharashtra (west coast of India)
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1998)
The estuary and coastal nearshore regions sustained fairly high concentration of chlorophyll a (av. 3.1 mg/m sup(3)) and primary productivity (av. 89.9 mgC/m sup(3)/h). High rate of primary productivity wos observed in the ...
Bathymetric distribution of Pleuromamma (Copepoda, Calanoida) species in the Indian Ocean
(ICAR, New Delhi, 1991)
Based on the analysis of 204 zooplankton samples from the stratified depths in the Indian Ocean collected during the International Indian Ocean Expedition (IIOE), the distribution of the genus Pleuromamma indica, P. gracilis, ...
