Zooplankton
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2007)
A review on some important aspects of zooplankton community in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, Goa, India is presented. Both these estuaries have more or less similar zooplankton fauna with nearly 20 different taxonomic ...
Intense blooms of Trichodesmium erythraeum (Cyanophyta) in the open waters along east coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2003)
Two blooms of Trichodesmium erythraeum were observed during April 2001, in the open waters of Bay of Bengal and this is the first report from this region. The locations of the bloom were off Karaikkal (10°58'N, 81°50'E) ...
Dominance of coastal upwelling over Mud Bank in shaping the mesozooplankton along the southwest coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon
(Pergamon, 2017)
Mud Banks are littoral zones along the Kerala (southwest) coast of India with increased suspended sediments during the Southwest Monsoon (SWM), which facilitate remarkable damping of incident waves creating a localized ...
Copepod grazing and their impact on phytoplankton standing stock and production in a tropical coastal water during the different seasons
(Springer, 2017)
The grazing rate of copepods on the total and size-fractionated phytoplankton biomass in a coastal environment (off Kochi, southwest coast of India) were measured during pre-monsoon (PRM), peak southwest monsoon (PKSWM), ...
Differential response of winter cooling on biological production in the northeastern Arabian Sea and northwestern Bay of Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2004)
The northern parts of the twin seas bordering the Indian subcontinent, the Arabian Sea (AS) and Bay of Bengal (BOB), were studied during the winter monsoon. Higher biological production was observed in the AS (chlorophyll ...
Summer monsoon onset-induced changes of autotrophic pico- and nanoplankton in the largest monsoonal estuary along the west coast of India
(Springer, 2016)
This study presents the response of autotrophic pico- and nanoplankton to southwest monsoon-associated hydrographical transformations in the Cochin backwaters (CBW), the largest monsoonal estuary along the west coast of ...
Mud Banks along the southwest coast of India are not too muddy for plankton
(2018)
Considering Alappuzha Mud Bank in the southern Kerala coast as a typical case of biologically productive Mud Banks that form along the southwest coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon (June - September), the present ...
Enhanced biological production off Chennai triggered by October 1999 super cyclone (Orissa)
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2002)
The results of physical forcings on primary production, its variation and associated hydrography of the southwestern Bay of Bengal during the southwest monsoon (July) and post-cyclone period (November) of 1999 were studied ...
Seasonality in autotrophic mesoplankton in a coastal upwelling-mud bank environment along the southwest coast of India and its ecological implications
(Elsevier, 2017)
Mesoplankton refers to both autotrophic and heterotrophic�plankton�with a body size between 200 � 20,000��m. Here, we applied a FlowCAM to identify the�autotrophs�present in the mesoplankton size class in a�coastal ...
Seasonal cycle of physical forcing and biological response in the Bay of Bengal
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2010)
Seasonal cycle of the physical processes and the biological response in the Bay of Bengal were studied using co-located physical, chemical and biological data collected along the central and the western Bay covering four ...
