Evaluation of the toxicity of organic matter in marine sediments
(Elsevier, 1991)
The inhibitory effects of the organics from the sediment along the east coast of India on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in-vitro were evaluated. Sediment samples collected from the surface layers at various depths were ...
Inputs from Indian rivers to the ocean: A synthesis
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)
Indian rivers contribute about 4% of the global annual discharge, of which the major rivers contribute 126 x 10 sup(10) m sup(3) y/1 to the Bay of Bengal which is approximately four times that to the Arabian Sea (29.7 x ...
Effect of human activities on and economic importance of phytoplankton
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi, India, 1994)
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 ...
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 ...
Distribution of organic carbon in sediments from the Arabian Sea
(1991)
Many earlier studies on the distribution of organic carbon in the Arabian Sea, sediments have projected contradictory opinions on the factors favouring accumulation and preservation of organic carbon in the Arabian Sea. ...
Aeolian deposition of Arabia and Somalia sediments on the southwestern continental margin of India
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
Kaolinite, smectite, illite and chlorite as major clay minerals and palygorskite and gibbsite in minor quantities have been recorded from the slope of southwestern continental margin of India. Contribution of kaolinite, ...
