Abundance, viability and culturability of Antarctic bacteria
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi, India, 1999)The viability of total number of bacteria decide the mineralisation rate in any ecosystem and ultimately the fertility of the region. This study aims at establishing the extent of viability in the standing stock of the ... -
Distribution and sources of aliphatic hydrocarbons and fatty acids in surface sediments of a tropical estuary south west coast of India (Cochin estuary)
(Springer, 2015)Surface sediments samples from the Cochin estuary were measured for elemental, stable isotopic and molecular biomarkers (aliphatic hydrocarbons and fatty acids) to study the sources and distribution of sedimentary organic ... -
Distribution of baroduric, psychrotrophic and culturable nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria in the Central Indian Basin
(National Institute of Ocean Technology, 2004)The abundance of baroduric, culturable nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria in the deep-sea cores of Central Indian Basin (CIB) at ca 5000 m depth was investigated. Analysis of 8 cores, sampled between 10 degrees 00 minutes ... -
Onshore heavy mineral placers of south Maharashtra, central west coast of India
(Macmillan, India, 2007)Heavy Mineral Placers from coastal sediments of south Maharashtra [105 km stretch from Vijaydurg (16 degrees 30 minutes N) in the North to Redi (15 degrees 43 minutes N) in the South] are studied to understand their ... -
Plankton biodiversity of Dharamtar creek adjoining Mumbai harbour
(Vidya Prasarak Mandal's B.N. Bandodkar College of Science; Thane (India), 2002)The phytoplankton and zooplankton diversity of Dharamtar creek, a vital system adjoining the Mumbai harbour were assessed to obtain baseline information. A total of 58 genera of phytoplankton were encountered from the area, ... -
Seagrasses - The forgotton marine habitat
(WWF for Nature-India, 2004)Seagrasses, a specialized group of flowering plants, submerged in the marine, estuarine, bay and backwater regions of the world. Though seagrass beds are of great ecological and socio economic importance, they are mostly ... -
Subtidal micro and meiobenthic community structure in the Gulf of Kachchh
(National Institute of Ocean Technology, 2004)Community structure of the micro- and meiobenthos of subtidal sediment from the Gulf of Kachchh were investigated during April 2002 (premonsoon season). Sediment samples were collected from 23 stations representing the ...
