Intertidal zones as carbon dioxide sources to coastal oceans
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)To understand the factors controlling carbon dioxide (CO sub(2)) exchanges near land-sea boundary diurnal observations have been made twice on CO sub(2) in the air and water in a coastal region. The results suggest that ... -
Petroleum hydrocarbons in northwest coastal waters of India
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)Impact of domestic and industrial wastewaters on coastal waters was studiEd. by monitoring petroleum hydrocarbon concentration (PHC) up to 25 km distance from shore, along Okha-Ratnagiri Coast, Maharashtra, India during ... -
Thraustochytrid and fungal component of marine detritus. 1. Field studies on decomposition of the brown alga Sargassum cinereum J. Ag.
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)Thraustochytrid protists and fungi were isolated and enumerated in culture from detritus of the brown alga Sargassum cinereum. Both groups occurred epi- and endobiontically in the detritus. The thraustochytrid Labyrinthuloides ... -
Biochemical composition of zooplankton from the northern Arabian Sea
(University of Karachi, Pakistan, 1993) -
Interspecific genetic divergence in three pomfret species from the Goa region
(Blackwell, 1993) -
Meiofaunal stratification in relation to microbial food in a tropical mangrove mud flat
(International Society of Tropical Ecology, Varanasi, India, 1993)The vertical gradients of meiofauna mainly in relation to biochemical changes and microbial abundance in the upper 20 cm of deposit of a mangrove mud flat were studied. Strong vertical gradients in the redox potential (Eh), ... -
Ecological and laboratory studies on the role of luminous bacteria and their luminescence in coastal pollution surveillance
(Pergamon, 1993)This study was aimed at finding out how bacterial bioluminescence, a trait very sensitive to toxicants, is affected in coastal environs which receive various types of effluents. For this, observations on occurrence and ... -
Genetic divergence in the Indian mackerel Rastrelliger kanagurta (Cuv) from the coastal waters of Peninsular India and the Andaman Sea
(CMFRI, Kochi, 1993)Genetic divergence in the Indian mackerel Rastrelliger kanagurta (Cuv) from the west coast (Goa), east coast (Madras) and the Andaman Sea was estimated, using allozyme markers. Skeletal muscle and eye proteins were ... -
Carbohydrate production by Amphora coffeaeformis, marine fouling diatom
(Herwood Academic, 1993) -
Zooplankton distribution in the polluted environment around Bombay
(Society of Biosciences, Muzaffarnagar, India, 1993)Zooplankton distribution, abundance and composition with reference to polluted environments off Bombay was estimated. This study was taken up along three transects viz. Versova, Mahim and Thana covering eleven stations ... -
An epifluorescence microscopy method for direct detection and enumeration of the fungilike marine protists, the thraustochytrids
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 1993) -
Biochemical genetics of some Indian fishes
(CMFRI, Cochin, 1993)Studies on biochemical genetics of fishes, using electrophoretic methods, are relatively of recent origin. Earlier serum and eye lens protein were used to identify marine populations. This technique showed that closely ... -
Metalycaea globosa stephensen, a valid species of Oxycephalidae (Amphipoda, Hyperiidea)
(Cambridge University Press, 1993) -
Nitrogen uptake kinetics of freshly isolated zooxanthellae
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)Zooxanthellae freshly isolated from the coral host Pocillopora damicornis exhibited substrate-saturable uptake kinetics for ammonium, nitrate and urea. Maximum uptake velocity for ammonium [10.1 nmol. ( mu chl-a)./1h/1] ... -
Studies on littoral and sublittoral macrophytes around the Mauritius coast
(Smithsonian Institure, Washington, USA, 1993)Floristic composition from the intertidal lagoon, reef, and subtidal (down to 20 m depth) regions, around the mauritius coast were studied to assess its present status. This provides firsthand information on the ecological ... -
Environmental stability and seasonality of a harpacticoid copepod community
(Springer, 1993) -
Relative abundance and diel variation of zooplankton from south west coast of India
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1993)Relative abundance and diurnal variations of zooplankton from six anchor stations along Kerala Caost, were investigated. Samples were collected during April-May 1988 at three hour intervals from depths varying between 15 ...
