Lack of seasonal and geographic variation in mesozooplankton biomass in the Arabian Sea and its structure in the mixed layer
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
Mesozooplankton standing stock, abundance and composition were studied during three seasons (summer, winter and inter-monsoon) from coastal and open ocean waters of the central and eastern Arabian Sea in 1994-95. Concentrations ...
Diatoms of the microphytobenthic community in a tropical intertidal sand flat influenced by monsoons: Spatial and temporal variations
(Springer, 2006)
Seasonal variations in the microphytobenthic diatom community were investigated in an intertidal sand flat of a tropical marine environment influenced by monsoons. Cores of sediments were collected along the beach gradient: ...
Community structure of meiobenthos from a tropical estuary
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1998)
Meiofaunal samples were collected from 3 stations, located in the salinity gradient of Zuari Estuary of Goa. Spatially the abundance of meiofauna decreased from lower to upper reaches and followed the trend of salinity ...
Ostracods of Andaman Sea
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi (India), 1996)
Distribution of 12 species of ostracods was studied from the waters around Andaman-Nicobar area. Euconchoecia aculeata was the most abundant species occurring mostly as swarms with a maximum density of 9732 specimens/1000 ...
Seasonal variability in penaeid prawn larval abundance in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, Goa
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1993)
Seasonal variations in the occurrence and abundance of penaeid prawn larvae in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries of Goa, India were studied. Larvae and postlarvae of commercially important species viz. Metapenaeus dobsoni ...
Studies on the intertidal macrofauna of the sandy beach at Kavarati atoll (Lakshadweep)
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1986)
The distribution of macrofauna in Kavaratti Atoll is studied in the intertidal region for over a period of 13 months. Several diversity in the faunal composition was not observed. The polychaete Scoloplos sp. and the bivalve ...
Nursery life of the marine prawn, Metapenaeus dobsoni (Miers) in the Mandovi estuary, along Goa Coast, India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
The nursery phase of Metapenaeus dobsoni was sequentially traced in the Mandovi Estuary of Goa (west coast of India). Peak postlarval ingression occurred between November and March. Of the total, 83.5% was distributed at ...
Distribution of penaeid prawn larvae in the coastal waters of Goa
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Larval and postlarval distribution of 4 commercially important penaeid prawns was studied in the coastal waters of Goa extending up to 40 m depth zone during Jan. - Dec. 1981. Larval stages of Metapenaeus dobsoni and ...
Zooplankton along the Tamil Nadu Coast
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)
Zooplankton abundance along two sectors at Cape Comorin and Tuticorin of Tamil Nadu Coast, southeast coast of India was studied. High biomass contributed by Ostracods, Salps, Chaetognaths etc., were observed along Tuticorin ...
Zooplankton Variability in Polluted and Unpolluted Waters off Bombay
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)
Zooplankton abundance in the waters around Bombay was studied at Versova, Bombay Harbour (less polluted), Mahim and Thana (highly polluted) from October 1977 to December 1978. A rich zooplankton population was observed ...
