Spectra and gross features of vertical temperature and salinity profiles off the central west coast of India
(India Meteorological Department, 1985)Continuous vertical profiles of temperature and salinity recorded by a CTD-system from the continental slope and the continental rise off Goa, west coast of India, were used for delineating the gross statistical features ... -
Watermass structure in the Bay of Bengal
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)The distributions of temperature, salinity thermosteric anomaly, density flux function and stability along 88 degrees E in the Bay of Bengal are presented. The surface salinities showed strong gradients both horizontally ... -
Geological and geophysical surveys of Visakhapatnam coast
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)Continuous records of the total earth's magnetic field and the surface sediment samples from the ocean bottom have been collected off Ramakrishna Beach and Lawsons Bay along the Visakhapatnam Coast. The magnetic data has ... -
Petroleum - its present and future
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)World's "published proved" reserve of oil by the end of 1984 was known to be of the order of 95,000 million tonnes. Of this, 57% lies buried in the middle eastern countries. At the present rate of growth in consumption and ... -
Summer cooling of the Arabian sea - a review
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1985)The summer cooling of the Arabian Sea has been reviewed in relation to the dynamic and thermodynamic processes. The differences in the quantum of cooling in the coastal regions have been attributed to the variations in the ... -
Distribution of Ellobiopsidae, parasitic Protozoa in the Indian Ocean
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985) -
Benthic foraminifers as indices of diversity and hyposalinity in a modern clastic shelf regime, off Bombay, India
(New Delhi: Oxford & IBH, 1985)A tidally energized clastic shelf regime at 25-45 m depth off Bombay-Daman composed of silty sand, silty clay, and clay fractions is located between a sand bar and the coast. The sand bar, running parallel to the coast, ... -
A device for biofouling studies in estuaries in relation to the tidal cycle
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)A device developed for studying the bio-ecological processes in an estuary in relation to the tidal flow is described. The deployment of this device could provide continuous and reliable data which will, not only minimize ... -
On the species of Acartiidae (Copepoda: Calanoida) collected during the International Indian Ocean Expedition
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985) -
Monthly mean wind stress along the coast of the north Indian Ocean
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1985)Monthly-mean wind stress and its longshore and offshore components have been computed using the bulk aerodynamic method for each of a string of 36 two-degree-latitude by two-degree-longitude squares along the coast of the ... -
Myctophid resources of the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal
(Cochin: Society of Fisheries Technologists, 1985) -
Long-term variations in benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages off Bombay, India
(New Delhi: Oxford & IBH, 1985)Changes in composition, number, and biomass of macrobenthic infauna in relation to environmental deterioration in the coastal zone of Bombay, India were followed between 1974 and 1983. A time-dependent impoverishment in ... -
Distribution of suspended particulate matter in the waters of eastern continental margin of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1985)Distribution of total suspended matter (TSM) in surface and near bottom (approximately 5 m above sea bed) waters reveals a wide variation in concentration and composition. TSM varies from 0.05 to 122 mg.l/1 in surface ... -
Exchange of fluxes across the air-sea interface during the onset phase of the southwest monsoon
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)The fluxes of momentum, sensible and latent heat over the southwest coast of India for the period of 27th May-10th June, 1984 based on the surface meteorological data have been presented on the time scale. The latent heat ... -
Vertical structure of the boundary layer. a comparison between land and sea
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)The structure and the energetics of the boundary layer have been studied simultaneously over land and sea off Goa Coast just before the onset of south west monsoon. The Radiosonde data obtained at 00 GMT (0530 IST) are ... -
Benthic watch: a case study of biological monitoring of marine environment
(International Publishers, 1985) -
Enumeration of thraustochytrids (Heterotrophic microorganisms) from the Arabian Sea
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)The number of thraustochytrids in seawater has been estimated in several samples from the Arabian Sea by concentrating the sample on a glass-fibre filter and plating on a nutrient medium. The number ranged from 1 to 69 ... -
Frequency distribution of foraminifera off Trivandrum, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1985)Fifty two species belonging to 31 genera of recent foraminifera have been identified from sediment samples collected from the inshore waters. Based on relative abundance of species, it is observed that along the coast, the ... -
Longshore currents and associated sediment transport in the nearshore areas of Kerala and Goa, west coast of India
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)The field observations on the longshore currents at selected locations along the coasts of Goa and Kerala on the western seaboard spanning over a period of five years revealed high variability in their direction and speed. ...
