Biomass and biochemical composition of zooplankton from northwest Bay of Bengal during January 1990
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)
Biomass, proximate composition, organic carbon and calorie content of assorted zooplankton from the surface waters were studied. Day and night stations revealed significant difference in biomass (displacement volume, dry ...
Phytoplankton ice-edge blooms in the marginal ice zone at Princess Astrid Coast in Antarctica
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi, 1995)
Daily variation in sea surface temperature at the ice edge zone in Antarctic polynya during summer from 25th December 1991 to 25th February 1992, showed that the values did not exceed 0 degrees C. Isotherms and isohalines ...
Zooplankton ecology of the mangrove habitats of Goa
(Wiley Eastern, New Delhi, 1992)
Zooplankton community of the fringing mangroves along the upper reaches of Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, Goa, India was studied. The mangrove ecosystem is rather a harsh one for plankton owing to combination of periodic ...
Zoolankton distribution in neuston and water column along west coast of India from Goa to Gujarat
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)
Zooplankton distribution and abundance in neuston layer and water column at 4 stansects between Goa to Gujarat during January-February, 1988 were studied. The ambient water temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen at ...
Zooplankton production, composition and diversity in the coastal waters of Goa
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)
Spatial and temporal variability in zooplankton production, composition and diversity in the coastal waters of Goa were studied. Zooplankton production was bimodal with primary peak during September-October and secondary ...
Parthenogenetic reproduction of Diaphanosoma celebensis (Crustacea: Cladocera). Effect of algae and algal density on survival, growth, life span and neonate production
(Springer, 1999)
The cladoceran Diaphanosoma celebensis Stingelin is reported on for the first time from Indian waters (Mandovi Estuary, Goa). Amictic females were maintained in the laboratory (temperature 24 plus or minus 1 degrees C and ...
Observations on feeding behaviour and survival rates in the estuarine calanoid copepods Acartia spinicauda and Heliodiaptomus cinctus (Crustacea: Copepoda: Calanoida)
(Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, New Delhi, 1999)
Experiments were conducted on the calanoid copepods, Acartia spinicauda (Acartiidae) and Heliodiaptomus cinctus (Diaptomidae) in order to determine food preference and survival rates respectively. Adults of A. spinicauda ...
Zooplankton standing stock, community structure and diversity in the northern Arabian Sea
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi, India, 1996)
The effects of large scale oil spill, which occurred during the Gulf War in 1991 on zooplankton standing stock, community structure and diversity in the northern Arabian Sea were studied. Surface (1-0 m) and vertical ...
Lunar, diel and tidal variabilityin penaeid prawn larval abundance in the Mandovi estuary, Goa
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1992)
Prawn larvae were studied to determine suitable lunar and tidal phases and time for large scale seed collection for prawn aquaculture. Larvae and postlarvae of 8 commercially important species were observed in the surface ...
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 ...
