Fungi in Porites lutea: Association with healthy and diseased corals
(Inter-Research, 2001)
Healthy and diseased scleractinian corals have been reported to harbour fungi. However, the species of fungi occurring in them and their prevalence in terms of biomass have not been determined and their role in coral ...
Benthos
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 2001)
Benthic organisms are sessile and sedentary in nature. True benthos can be divided into two groups - epifauna and infauna. They comprise major invertebrate phyla. Benthic organisms are separated into micro, meio, macro and ...
Magmatic evolution of the fresh basalts from the Ridge axis near Egaria Fracture Zone, Central Indian Ridge
(Geological Society of India, 2001)
Fresh Mid-Ocean Ridge Basalts (MORBs) from the Central Indian Ridge (CIR) (20° 12'S; 66°53'E), located north of the Rodriguez Triple Junction (RTJ) are studied for their petrography and bulk composition along with mineral ...
Thraustochytrid protists degrade hydrocarbons
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2001)
Although thraustochytrid protists are known to be of widespread occurrence in the sea, their hydrocarbon-degrading abilities have never been investigated. We isolated thraustochytrids from coastal waters and sediments of ...
BOBMEX: The Bay of Bengal Monsoon Experiment
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)
The first observational experiment under the Indian Climate Research Programme, called the Bay of Bengal Monsoon Experiment (BOBMEX), was carried out during July-August 1999. BOBMEX was aimed at measurements of important ...
Retrieval of chlorphyll from the sea-leaving radiance in the Arbaian Sea
(The Indian Society of Remote Sensing, 2001)
Error estimates in chlorophyll retrieval in the sea from satellite data have always been higher compared to the errors in retrieval of sea surface temperature or wind speed from satellite data. This is due to the higher ...
Sediment redistribution during simulated benthic disturbance and its implications on deep seabed mining
(Pergamon, 2001)
A benthic disturbance experiment was conducted in the Central Indian Basin to evaluate the possible effects of sediment redistribution on marine ecosystem during deep-sea mining. The analyses of disturbance features on the ...
EIA of anthropogenic activities on marine macrobenthos
(Central Institute of Fisheries Education, Mumbai, 2001)
Marine microbiology: A glimpse of the strides in the Indian and the global arena
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 2001)
The chapter reviews the development in marine microbiology in the national and international arena. It traces salient features from the pre-Zobell era to the mid 1990s. The studies in India have just made a beginning into ...
Response of deep-sea macrobenthos to a small-scale environmental disturbance
(Elsevier, 2001)
To assess the possible effect of nodule mining on deep-sea environment, the Indian deep-sea environment experiment (INDEX) was undertaken in the Indian Basin. The present investigation is a part of the disturbance and ...
