Biomass relations between phytoplankton and zooplankton in Goa waters
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)Biomass of phytoplankton and zooplankton, measured as particulate oxidizable carbon, shows that at shallowest stations (5 m) there is large excess of phytoplankton organic carbon over zooplankton carbon in all the samples ... -
Biomass, organic carbon and calorific content of zooplankton from the Arabian Sea off Central West coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)Organic carbon content and calorific values of zooplankton varied from 18.35 to 32.49% (av. 27.8%) and from 2.56 to 4.71 k cal. g-1 dry wt (av. 3.99) respectively. Areawise off Gujarat sustained higher standing stock of ... -
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 ... -
Chaetognatha of the Andaman Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1981)Chaetognatha of the Andaman Sea were studied during 51 and 52 cruises of R.V Gaveshani (Jan to Feb 1979) The area between southeast of Andaman island and north of Nicobar island had relatively higher density Total population ... -
Coexistence and Succession of Copepod Species in the Mandovi and Zuari Estuaries, Goa
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)Observations were made on the copepod species association and succession at six stations in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine system of Goa, India. A total of 55 species belonging to 25 genera and 18 families were encountered ... -
Comparative account on zooplankton in polluted and unpolluted estuaries of Gujarat
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)An assessment of the zooplankton biomass and composition in Kolak Par, Damanganga and Auranga estuaries was made. Among these four rivers pollution is severe in the first two, moderate in Damanganga and good water quality ... -
Concentration and toxicity of some metals in zooplankton from nearshore waters of Bombay
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1985)Zooplankton samples collected from 4 stations located in the nearshore waters of Bombay were analysed for Cu, Co, Mn, Ni and Cd. Concentrations of Co, Mn and Ni were more in copepods and gelatinous organisms than in mysids ... -
Copepod Swarm in the Campbell Bay (Andaman Sea)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1981)During the 68th cruise of R.V.Gaveshani, an unusual abundance of calanoid copepods of family Pontellidae was observed in the Campbell Bay (lat.6 degrees 30'-6 degrees 59'N and long 93 degrees 56'-94 degrees 15'E) Swarm ... -
Decline in biodiversity of copepods in coastal waters of Mumbai
(MEDCOAST, 2013)Coastal waters of metropolitan cities face severe ecological threat due to sewage discharge and effluents from the industries. Copepods being the most abundant component in zooplankton some species can act as signals of ... -
Deterioration in the biodiversity of copepods in sewage laiden creeks of Mumbai coast, west coast of India: A statistical approach.
