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)

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 ... -
Two new species of Anisomysis (Crustacea - Mysidacea) from the Lakshadweep archipilago

A study of medusae from Andaman and Nicobar waters
(Zoological Society of Kerala, 1993)The results obtained from 14 cruises undertaken by FORV Sagar Sampada during the period 1986-1990 from Andaman and Nicobar waters are detailed. 346 zooplankton collections were made during this period and medusae were found ... -
Fishery potential of the Gulf of Kachchh
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1993)Fishery potential of the interior Gulf of Kachchh and adjacent creek regions was reported for the first time as baseline data for future ecological assessment. The experimental trawling and gill netting indicated that the ... -
Manglicolous fungi from atolls of Maldives, Indian Ocean
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)Thirty nine species represented by 29 species of Ascomycetes, 2 of Basidiomycetes and 8 of Deuteromycetes were collected from partially submerged, dead and decayed parts of 5 mangrove species. The dominant species were ... -
A new record of two penaeid species from Goa Coast
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1993)Adults of Penaeus japonicus (Bate) and juveniles of P. canaliculatus (Olivier) were recorded for the first time from the coastal estuarine regions of Goa, (India) respectively. Their presence in Goa waters suggests that ... -
Fungal decay of traditional fishing craft
(Society of Fisheries Technology, Cochin, India, 1993)The artisanal fishermen land major portion of fish caught in India, employing traditional fishing craft and methods. These craft are built of indigenous wood and undergo rapid biodeterioration causing great economic loss. ... -
Population abundance and species composition of chaetognaths in the Bombay harbour-Thana and Bassein creek estuarine complex
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)Detailed study on the abundance, distribution and species composition of chaetognaths from the Bombay harbour-Thana and Bassein creek estuarine complex was carried out from October 1985 to September 1986. Percentage ... -
Coral reef surveys in India
(University of Guam Marine Laboratory, 1993)This paper briefly describes the history of coral reef surveys in India. All the surveys done so far have used simple techniques, but they have been quite effective in highlighting the damages to reefs in the short-term ... -
Conflicting interests in the use of Kerala's penaeid shrimp resources: A case question
(Marine Biological Association of India, 1993)In the drive to increase foreign exchange on the shrimp resource base, the development strategy has been to bring additional backwater area under the open semi-intensive culture system. Apparently, the nature of the shrimp ...
