Grazing of particle-associated bacteria - An elimination of the non-viable fraction
(Elsevier, 2017)
Quantification of bacteria being grazed by microzooplankton is gaining importance since they serve as energy subsidies for higher trophic levels which consequently influence fish production. Hence, grazing pressure on ...
Differential environmental responses of tropical phytoplankton community in the southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)
Phytoplankton characteristics (biomass, primary productivity, species composition and community structure) were studied in a tropical estuary (Cochin estuary) and adjacent coastal marine region for understanding the factors ...
Feeding preference and daily ration of 12 dominant copepods on mono and mixed diets of phytoplankton, rotifers, and detritus in a tropical coastal water
(Springer, 2017)
Results of the experimental studies on the feeding habit and daily ration (DR) of 12 dominant copepods from a tropical coastal water (off Kochi, Southwest coast of India) on different food items (phytoplankton, rotifers, ...
Long-term preservation of Tetraselmis indica (Chlorodendrophyceae, Chlorophyta) for flow cytometric analysis: Influence of fixative and storage temperature
(Elsevier, 2017)
Immediate enumeration of phytoplankton is seldom possible. Therefore, fixation and subsequent storage are required for delayed analysis. This study investigated the influence of glutaraldehyde (GA) concentrations (0.25%, ...
Taxonomy and distribution of benthic foraminifera in an intertidal zone of the Yellow Sea, PR China: Correlations with sediment temperature and salinity
(Elsevier, 2017)
Seasonal variations in foraminiferal populations from the intertidal environment of the Yellow Sea are not well known. This results in restricted understanding of environmental implications of foraminifera and their ...
Interannual variability of zonal currents in the equatorial Indian Ocean: respective control of IOD and ENSO
(Springer, 2017)
The observational record is too short to confidently differentiate the relative contributions of Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) and El Ni�o-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on the interannual variability of the equatorial current ...
Microbial dynamics in a tropical monsoon influenced estuary: Elucidation through field observations and microcosm experiments on biofilms
(Elsevier, 2017)
The changes that occur in biofilms reflect the influence of the environment. In a case study, the biofilms developed along a salinity gradient from marine to freshwater in a tropical monsoon influenced estuary (Zuari, west ...
40Ar/39Ar dating of the Mumbai tholeiites and Panvel flexure: intense 62.5 Ma onshore-offshore Deccan magmatism during India-Laxmi Ridge-Seychelles breakup
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Mumbai, located on the western Indian continental margin, exposes Danian-age Deccan magmatic units of diverse compositions, dipping seaward due to the Panvel flexure. The Ghatkopar-Powai tholeiitic sequence contains ...
Effect of physico-chemical regimes and tropical cyclones on seasonal distribution of chlorophyll-a in the Chilika Lagoon, east coast of India
(Springer, 2017)
A comprehensive analysis on spatiotemporal variation in physico-chemical variables and their control on chlorophyll-a during 2013-14 was carried out in the Chilika Lagoon. Spatiotemporal variation in physico-chemical regimes ...
Suspended matter and fluid mud off Alleppey, southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)
Time series measurements on suspended particulate matter (SPM) were made at one non-mud bank (M1) and two mud bank stations (M2 and M3) off Alleppey, south west coast of India. The mean SPM was low in surface (6.2 mg/l) ...
