Seasonal distribution of organic matter in mangrove environment of Goa
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)
Water and sediments were studied for the distribution of suspended matter, organic carbon and nitrogen Suspended matter ranged from 3-373 mg.l-1 while particulate organic carbon (POC) from 0.03-9.94 mg.l-1 POC value showed ...
Observations on marine macrophytes of the republic of Seychelles
(Walter de Gruyter, Berlin, 1989)
The distribution of macrophytes was studies from the major islands (Mahe, Praslin and La Digue) of the Seychelles Archipelago. The macrophytes were represented by 72 species of seaweeds, 8 species of mangroves and 6 species ...
Marine macrophytes of Minicoy (Lakshadweep) coral atoll of the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1984)
Thirty-seven species of marine algae, belonging to 31 genera 5 seagrass species and one mangrove species, were recorded from Minicoy Atoll. The predominant seaweeds observed were Enteromorpha clathrata, Caulerpa species, ...
Larval Migration and growth of Marine Prawns in the Estuarine Habitat
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)
Larval migration and growth of @iMetapenaeus dobsoni, M. monoceros, M. affinis@@ and @iPenaeus merguiensis@@ were studied in the Mandovi Estuary and a nearby mangrove swamps for one year. In general, total number of larvae ...
Studies on Mangrove Swamps of Goa 1. Heterotrophic Bacterial Flora from Mangrove Swamps
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)
Heterotrophic bacterial flora from the mangrove swamps of Goa consisted of physiologically active organisms exhibiting cellulolytic, pectinolytic, amylolytic, proteolytic and H2S forming activities, throughout the year. ...
The Fungal Flora of the Mangrove Swamps of Goa

Mangrove swamps of Goa (India) showed the presence of fungi belonging to 14 different genera, predominant ones being Monilia, Mucor, Syncephalastrum, Aspergillus and Trichothecium. Most of the isolates were found to be ...
Seasonal Variation in Heavy Metal Concentration in Mangrove Foliage
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1980)
Seasonal variation in the concentration of some heavy metals in the leaves of seven species of mangrove vegetation from Goa, revealed that maximum concentration of iron and manganese occurs during the monsoon season without ...
Contribution of Phytoplankton Photosynthesis to a Mangrove Ecosystem
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1980)
Primary production in a fringing mangrove ecosystem was measured using two techniques. The first estimated gross oxygen production and community metabolism based on the diel difference in dissolved oxygen concentrations. ...
Effect of Petroleum Products on Mangrove Seedlings
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1980)
The effect of petrol, diesel and motor oil was studied on the fruits of Rhizophora mucronata and Avicennia officinalis. The former species was found to be more resistant to these petroleum products than the latter, in which ...
