Inorganic combined nitrogen budget of the Arabian Sea: Some geochemical and climatic implications
(Waseda University, Tokyo, 1992)
Estimates of the local sources and sinks of inorganic combined nitrogen in the Arabian Sea suggest a net loss of sup(-)3 x 10 sup(13) gN y sup(-1). This seems to be made up largely by the upward flux facilitatEd. by a high ...
Life history of the ghost shrimp, Callianassa japonica ortmann (Decapoda: Thalassinidea), on an intertidal sandflat in western Kyushu, Japan
(Elsevier, 1997)
Growth, density, survival, and reproduction were examined for the population of the ghost shrimp, Callianassa japonica, inhabiting an intertidal sandflat in western Kyushu, Japan, based on samples collected from May, 1989 ...
Response of benthic fauna to different pollutants: Some case studies and relevance of benthos to environmental impact assessment
(Discovery Publishing House, 2003)
With rapid rate of urbanization, industrial growth and varieties of anthropogenic changes, the use of biological parameters as monitors of environment is being increasingly appreciated. As compared to plant, the animal ...
Macrozooplankton biomass in the deep scattering layer of the Indian EEZ.
(Marine Biological Association of India, 2009)
The surveys conducted on board FORV Sagar Sampada during 1998-2002 on the Deep Scattering Layer (DSL) revealed a wide spectrum of macrozooplankton in the sonic layers of the oceanic and pelagic realms from surface to 750 ...
Bothid larvae (Pleuronectiformes-Pisces) of the Indian Ocean
(Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, New Delhi, 1999)
The larvae of bothids were found to be sparsely distributed in the Indian Ocean, being only 7.6% in IIOE collections (1960-65) and 13.5% in FORV Sagar Sampada (1986-90) samples. They were confined mostly to the coastal ...
Climate fluctuations of tropical coupled systems — The role of ocean dynamics
(American Meteorological Society, 2006)
The tropical oceans have long been recognized as the most important region for large-scale ocean-atmosphere interactions, giving rise to coupled climate variations on several time scales. During the TOGA decade, the focus ...
Relationship of sediment-biochemistry, bacterial morphology, and activity to geotechnical properties in the central Indian Basin
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Distribution of biochemical properties, morphological and functional characteristics of bacteria in the extreme sedimentary environment of the Central Indian Basin (CIB) was examined in relation to geotechnical properties ...
Bioaccumulation of heavy metals in commercially important marine fishes from Mumbai Harbor, India.
(Elsevier, 2014)
Seventeen commercially important marine fish species were caught in Mumbai Harbor using a trawl net and evaluated using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy and ICP-OES. It was found that certain species of fish contained lower ...
Life cycle of eddies along the western boundary of the Bay of Bengal and their implications
(Elsevier, 2012)
Analysis of vertical thermohaline structure along the western boundary of the Bay of Bengal revealed many undulations during April–May 2003. A prominent feature noticed was a dome in the northwestern boundary of the Bay ...
Quantitative characteristics of the Indian Ocean seafloor relief using fractal dimension
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2007)
In this paper spectral technique has been applied for seafioor topographic data analyses from three seafioor provinces of the Indian Ocean. Study sites include West of the Andaman Island (WAT), Western Continental Margins ...
