Living benthonic foraminifera in a tidal environment: Gulf of Khambhat (India)
(Elsevier, 1984)Living benthonic foraminifera from the top one centimeter layer from 23 surface sediment samples have been studied. Samples were collected from the tidally affected inner shelf off the Daman Bombay sector of the Arabian ... -
Microenvironments and anomalous benthic foraminiferal distribution within the neritic regime of the Dabhol-Vengurla sector (Arabian Sea)
(Universita' degli Studi di Milano, 1980)An anomalous distribution of benthic Foraminifera within the neritic regime at a few stations indicates the existence of microenvironments. The vertical distribution is marked by the restricted occurrence of @iCibicides@@ ... -
Mixing and intrusion of salt
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2007)The chapter presents three sets of data on salinity in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, Goa, India. The first set gives variation in vertical stratification at Old Goa in the Mandovi during February 1997 (dry season, when ... -
Modulation of SST, SSS over northern Bay of Bengal on ISO time scale
(American Geophysical Union, 2011)High resolution observations of atmospheric and oceanic variables are carried out at northern Bay of Bengal from 22nd July to 6th August 2009 on-board ORV Sagar Kanya under the Continental Tropical Convergence Zone research/ ... -
Monsoonal variability in abiotic parameters in coastal waters off Trivandrum evokes press and pulse response in biotic variables
(Centre for Ocean and Environmental Studies, New Delhi, 2012)Trivandrum Coast experiences coastal upwelling during south west monsoon, which is accompanied by abiotic changes in physio-chemical parameters. The resultant biotic responses could range from an instantaneous pulse to a ... -
Natural isotopic composition of nitrogen in suspended particulate matter in the Bay of Bengal
(The European Geosciences Union, 2004)The first measurements of nitrogen isotopic composition (delta sup(15) N) in suspended particulate matter (SPM) of the surface Bay of Bengal (BOB) at 24 different locations during pre- (April-May 2003) and post- ... -
Nutrient uptake and regeneration ratios in the Red sea with reference to the nutrient budgets
(Elsevier, 1986)The relationships between apparent oxygen utilization and inorganic micronutrients have been studied on the basis of extensive observation in the Red Sea. The ratios obtained are - Delta AOU: Delta SiO4: Delta NO3: Delta ... -
Nutrients of the Cochin backwater in relation to environmental characteristics
(Springer, 1969)The nutrient distribution of the Cochin Backwater was studied at 6 stations throughout the year The depth profiles of phosphorus (inorganic and organic), nitrogen (nitrate and nitrite) and silicon, showed a marked seasonal ... -
Observational evidence of upwelling off the southwest coast of India during June-July 2006
(School of Naval Oceanology and Meteorology, 2007)Considerable latitudinal variability exists in the forcing mechanisms and intensity of coastal upwelling along the southwest coast of India. Present work is based on the insitu observations conducted onboard FORV Sagar ... -
Occurrence of Genus Monostroma (Ulvales, Chlorophyta) from Ratnagiri (Maharashtra)
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1980)The occurrence of a genus Monostroma has been recorded from the Shirgaon creek at Ratnagiri along the central west coast of India. The Monostroma sp. was found in the brackish water environment with low salinity, high ... -
Occurrence of Porphyra Vietnamensis (Bangiales, Rhodophyta) along the Goa Coast
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)The occurrence of a red alga, Porphyra vietnamensis has been studied along the Goa Coast (west coast of India). The growth period was observed during the monsoon (July-October) and optimum growth was recorded during August, ... -
Ocean currents structuring the mesozooplankton in the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Bay, southeast coast of India
(Elsevier, 2013)We hypothesis perceptible physical barriers that exist between the deep Gulf of Mannar and shallow Palk Bay located between India and Sri Lanka, and seasonally reversing surface circulation patterns in the region have a ... -
Oceanography of the northern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1982)The euphotic zone of the northern Arabian Sea ranges from 20-60 m with an average depth of about 40 m. Surface temperatures range from 22.5 to 28.5 degrees C, increasing from north to south. At 1000 m, the temperature is ... -
On the renewal of the denitrifying layer in the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1988)A one-dimensional (vertical) advection-diffusion model has been applied to the deep layer characterized by a linear potential temperature(theta)-salinity relationship in the Arabian Sea to estimate the velocity of ascending ... -
On the water quality of selected environments along Bombay coast
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1985)Water quality of three stations representing polluted (Sts. B & S) and relatively unpolluted (St. M) areas along the coast of Bombay was studied during March 1981 to May 1982. Stations B & S were characterised by relatively ... -
Persistence and fate of some organophosphorus pesticides in sea sediments along east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)Stability and fate of pesticides, monocrotophos, phosphamidon and DDVP, were studied in sediment samples collected along the east coast of India pH, salinity and exchangeable cations present in sediments exhibited profound ... -
Physical characteristics of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat, West coast of India. Part 2. Vertical homogeneity of temperature and salinity
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1982)Vertical distribution of temperature and salinity at five stations in the coastal waters off Navapur-Umbharat (Maharashtra-Gujarat coast, India) was studied over different seasons during 1978. The results showed that inspite ... -
Physical characteristics of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat, West coast of India. Part 3. Stability and dispersion
