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 ...
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. ...
Nature and distribution of manganese nodules from three sediment domains of the Central Indian Basin, Indian Ocean
(Springer, 1991)
Manganese nodules from the Central Indian Basin (5 degrees-10 degrees S) vary in abundance, morphology, mineralogy, and chemistry with water depth and sediment type. Nodules from the southern region, dominatEd. by siliceous ...
Energy content of suspended detritus from Arabian Sea
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1991)
Energy components of suspended matter included phytoplankton, zooplankton and detritus inclusive of microorganisms adsorbed to detritus. Of these, detritus contributed most of the energy (98%). The average caloric content ...
Estimates of high absolute densities and emergence rates of demersal zooplankton from the Agatti Atoll, laccadives
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 1991)
Direct sampling of the sandy substratus of the Agatti Lagoon with a corer showed the presence of vary high densities of epibenthic forms. On average, densities were about 25 times higher than previously estimated with ...
Reference datum level
(NIO, Goa, 1991)
Geophysical study of a seamount located on the continental margin of India
(Springer, 1991)
Bathymetric, magnetic, and gravity data obtained over a 2,464 m high seamount located in the Arabian Sea indicate that the seamount (inferred mean density = 2.65 gm/cc) extends for 1 km beneath the seafloor and is locally ...
Ocean current measurement techniques
(NIO, Goa, 1991)
N2O production in the ocean
(MacMillan, 1991)
Gravity anomalies and crustal structure of the western continental margin off Goa and Mulki, India
(Elsevier, 1991)
Bathymetric and gravity data totalling 2000 line kilometres on the continental margin off Goa and Mulki, India, have been studied and prominent NNW-SSE and ENE-WSW trending free-air gravity anomalies varying between -60 + ...
