Meiofaunal distribution across the oxygen minimum zone of continental margin, North East Arabian Sea
(BioPublisher, 2017)
A quantitative study of metazoan meiofauna across the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) of continental margin in the N-E Arabian Sea in the depth range 500-1965 m was carried out in September-November 2008. Bottom water oxygen and ...
Bacterial standing stock, meiofauna and sediment-nutrient characteristics: Indicators of benthic disturbance in the Central Indian Basin
(Pergamon, 2001)
As a part of the environmental impact assessment studies for polymetallic nodule mining, the effect of simulated "benthic disturbance" caused by a benthic hydraulic disturber was studied in the Central Indian Basin (CIB). ...
Cultivation of green mussel, Perna viridis L., on a floating raft in an estuary along the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 1993)
Total production of green mussels, Perna viridis, grown on a raft (16 m sup(2)) for 1 year was 2144.64 kg and biomass (meat weight) was 1040.00 kg. Annual production (P) and biomass (B) estimated were 33.51 and 16.25 kg m ...
Recovery of deep-sea meiofauna after artificial disturbance in the Central Indian Basin
(Taylor & Francis, 2005)
Colonization of deep-sea (5000–5500m depths) metazoan meiofaunal assemblage (in terms of abundance and community structure) was investigated in the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB), immediately after and also 44 months ...
Macrobenthic communities of the coastal waters of Dabhol, west coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2002)
Macrobenthic community of a shallow subtidal (5-20 m) muddy deposit off Dabhol was investigated. Sediment comprised mainly of silt and clay with less of sand. Dominance of clayey-silt fraction reflects on active flocculation ...
Seasonality and vertical distribution of epiphytic diatoms on the pneumatophore surface of mangrove Avicennia officinalis L.
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2018)
Mangrove pneumatophores (respiratory roots) form a unique habitat about which very little ecological information is available. In this study, epiphytic diatoms on the pneumatophore surface of Avicennia officinalis (L.) ...
Benthic macroinvertebrate community structure and distribution in the Ayeyarwady continental shelf, Andaman Sea
(NISCAIR (CSIR), 2012)
Quantitative assessment of macrofaunal community of Ayeyarwady continental shelf, Andaman Sea was studied during April-May 2002. About 27 major taxa were identified. Abundance of fauna was in the order of polychaetes ...
Marine bioinvasion: Concern for ecology and shipping
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2002)
Marine bioinvasion - introduction of marine organisms alien to local ecosystem through ship hulls and ballast water - has serious consequences to native biota, fishery and general coastal ecosystem. Over 80% of the world ...
Biochemical composition of the alligator pipefish, Syngnathoides biaculeatus (Bloch, 1785)
(Science Press, 2017)
Considering the economic importance in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and lack of baseline information, we evaluated the proximate composition, fatty acid and amino acid profiles, trace element content and C:N ratio ...
Investigating the impacts of treated effluent discharge on coastal water health (Visakhapatnam, SW coast of Bay of Bengal, India)
(Springer, 2017)
The present study investigated the impacts of treated effluent discharge on physicochemical and biological properties of coastal waters from three pharmaceuticals situated along the coast of Visakhapatnam (SW Bay of Bengal). ...
