Assemblage of benthic diatoms and culturable heterotrophs in shallow-water hydrothermal vent of the D. Joao de Castro Seamount, Azores in the Atlantic Ocean
(Current Science Association, India, 2008)The shallow-water hydrothermal vent of D. Joao de Castro Seamount in the North Atlantic, between the Azorean islands Sao Miguel and Terceira, is characterized by yellow and white zones which are distinct in physical and ... -
Relevance of bacterioplankton abundance and production in the oligotrophic equatorial Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2008)Bacterioplankton abundance and production, chlorophyll a (Chl a) concentrations and primary production (PP) were measured from the equatorial Indian Ocean (EIO) during northeast (NEM), southwest (SWM) and spring intermonsoon ... -
Environmental studies on mangrove cover changes in Goa and its resident Crassostrea population
(2008)Mangroves form one of these major habitats, sustaining various types of fauna and flora of socioeconomic values. The physical structure of fishes and invertebrates is greatly influenced by mangroves. These habitats support ... -
Ecobiology and Fisheries of an Economically Important Estuarine Fish, Sillago sihama (Forsskal)
(2008)Goa with about 105 km long coastline has vast resources of marine shellfish and finfish. Fish is a protein rich food and for the state of Goa it assumes special significance as it forms one of the chief components in the ... -
Seasonal variability of the upper ocean driven by the atmospheric forcing and its regulation of nutrients and chlorophyll in the Bay of Bengal
(2008)The upper ocean is the most variable and dynamically active part of the marine environment that couples the underlying ocean to the atmosphere above through the transfer of mass, momentum and energy. The thickness of mixed ... -
Intense predation on ascidians by a trunk fish, Ostracion immaculatus (Temminck et Schlege) (Pisces:Ostracidae)
(Seto Marine Biological Laboratory, Japan, 1996) -
Ammonium assimilation and regeneration by size-fractionated plankton in permanently well-mixed temperate waters
(Cambridge University Press, 1996) -
Influence of food concentration, temperature and salinity on the larval development of Balanus amphitrite
(Springer, 1996)Influence of food concentration (0.5, 1 and 2 x 10 sup(5) cell ml sup(-1) of Skeletonema costatum), temperature (20 and 30 degrees C) and salinity (15, 25 and 35 ppt) on the larval development of Balanus amphitrite ... -
Nutrients from the mangrove areas of Cochin backwaters
(Kerala Science Congress, 1996)Nutrient like ammonia, nitrite, nitrate and inorganic phosphate and some hydrographic parameters were estimated for one year from two distinct mangrove ecosystems of Cochin backwaters viz. Puduvypeen and Nettoor. The ammonia ... -
Chemical characterization of exopolysaccharides from the marine fouling diatom Amphore coffeaeformis
(Herwood Academic, 1996)Amphora coffeaeformis cells were grown in batch cultures under continuous illumination at 18 degrees C for 10 d. Algal cells were removed by centrifugation, lyophilized and used for the extraction of exopolysaccharides ... -
Use of ozone for sustainable brackishwater industrial aquaculture and management of environment
(Central Institute of Brackishwater Aquaculture, Madras (India), 1996)The use of ozones for sustainable brakish water industrial aquaculture and the management of the environment is discussed. In sample survey conducted in the farms, it was seen that oxygen level was not adequate for high ... -
Medusae from the sea around Laccadive group of islands (7 degrees-18 degrees N/69 degrees-76 degrees E)
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi (India), 1996)Forty-four specie of hydromedusae belonging to 20 families were obtained from the samples collected during the period 1985-1987. Studies on abundance, diurnal variation and distribution are investigated. High densities ... -
Nesting behaviour of the Indian horseshoe crab, Tachypleus gigas (Muller) (Xiphosura)
(Omega Scientific Publ., New Delhi, 1996) -
Crude oil degradation by phosphate-solubilizing bacteria
(Springer, 1996)Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria were isolated from tropical areas around the Indian peninsula. Two of the isolates showed high phosphatase activity. The isolates were identified as Klebsiella pneumoniae and Bacillus pumilus, ... -
Zoolankton distribution in neuston and water column along west coast of India from Goa to Gujarat
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)Zooplankton distribution and abundance in neuston layer and water column at 4 stansects between Goa to Gujarat during January-February, 1988 were studied. The ambient water temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen at ... -
Ichthyoplankton from Andaman and Nicobar seas
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi (India), 1996)Ichthyoplankton of the Andaman and NIcobar seas were studied for their spatial, seasonal and day and night variations from 357 zooplankton samples collected during 1986 to 1990. High density of fish larvae was encountered ... -
Photosynthetically available radiation in the central and eastern Arabian Sea
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)In this article, we present the analysis of the photosynthetically available radiation (PAR, 400-700 mm) in the eastern and central Arabian Sea (21 degrees 30'N, 64 degrees E to 12 degrees N, 74 degrees E) during February-March, ... -
Comparative account of benthic community at two different locations in the continental Antarctica
(Department of Ocean Development, India, 1996)Data on faunal communities, abundance and biomass were collected from seven stations in the Queen Maud Land shelf, Lazarev Sea, East Antarctica and three stations in Atca Ice Port, Weddell Sea, West Antarctica. The sampling ... -
Energy source in the developing eggs of the Indian horseshoe crab, Tachypleus gigas (Muller)
(Oxford and IBH, 1996)Wet weight, dry weight, water content, ash weight, soluble and insoluble proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and glycogen were determined from 0 to 40th day after fertilization of the developing eggs of the Indian horseshoe ... -
Growth of marine yeast on different strength of stress solutes
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi (India), 1996)Sixteen isolates of marine yeasts belonging to genera Candida, Debaryomyces, Rhodotorula and Saccharomyces, isolated from the (EEZ) of India were screened for their growth on different concentrations of sodium chloride ...
