Orbital frequencies in radiolarian assemblages of the central Indian Ocean: implications on the Indian summer monsoon
(Elsevier, 2003)
Radiolarian distribution in surface sediments and its relationships with overlying surface oceanography provided impetus for down-core faunal variation related to changes in monsoon intensity due to the Earth's orbital ...
Problems of global warming and role of micropaleontologists - Presidential Address
(Gondwana Geological Society, 2003)
Response of benthic fauna to different pollutants: Some case studies and relevance of benthos to environmental impact assessment
(Discovery Publishing House, 2003)
With rapid rate of urbanization, industrial growth and varieties of anthropogenic changes, the use of biological parameters as monitors of environment is being increasingly appreciated. As compared to plant, the animal ...
Managing coastal tourism: Perspectives from India and the European union
(Tata Energy Research Institute, India, 2003)
Tourism can, and does, impact local development and the environment, as seen in this multi-authored volume, and attention is needed to avoid what has been termed as the 'golden goose' problem. The beauty and environmental ...
Biomass and quantitative indices of phytoplankton in Mandovi-Zuari estuary
(Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, India, 2003)
Biomass in terms of Chlorophyll a, cell density and quantitative indices of phytoplankton, from two estuarine stations and a coastal station off Goa has been studied during 1997-98. Biomass in terms of Chlorophyll a averaged ...
Aminostratigraphy of sediments of the SW Bay or Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2003)
Amino acid enantiomeric (D/L) ratio is a stratigraphic tool of Recent sediments. The method which came into being 35 years ago1, is not a precise dating tool like, for example, the radiocarbon method, as the extent of ...
Bacterial growth efficiency in the tropical estuarine and coastal waters of Goa, southwest coast of India
(Springer, 2003)
Bacterial growth efficiency (BGE) is an index of organic carbon passing through bacteria in an aquatic system. BGE values of natural bacterioplankton assemblages were measured in tropical estuarine and adjacent coastal ...
Sea-floor classification using multibeam echo-sounding angular backscatter data: A real-time approach employing hybrid neural network architecture
(IEEE, 2003)
The presently studied numerical model, e.g., composite roughness, is successful for the purpose of sea-floor classification employing processed multibeam angular backscatter data from manganese-nodule-bearing locations of ...
Assimilation potential of water column biota: Mesocosm-based evaluations
(Tata Energy Research Institute, India, 2003)
This chapter presents a generalized picture of various aspects of assimilation by native biota and underscores the importance of safeguarding the environment from excessive discharge of nutrient-rich effluents, even though ...
Representation, dispersion, and variation of bacterial indicators in the coastal waters of Nagore (east coast of India)
(Water Environment Federation, 2003)
The occurrence of bacterial indicators in the coastal waters of Nagore on the east coast of India was studied during two monsoon and nonmonsoon cycles from 1995 to 1996. Proteus/Klebsiella, Virbio parahaemolyticus, and ...
