Macroalgal susceptibility to grazing by herbivore fish Siganus spp. at Gulf of Mannar reef, Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2022)Enhancing the herbivore fish stock is envisaged as a mitigation tool to reverse the macroalgal dominance in a coral reef environment. However, identifying the key species of herbivore fish that significantly controls the ... -
Macrobenthic abundance in the vicinity of spreading ridge environment in Central Indian Ocean
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2003)Macrofaunal communities of the Central Indian Ocean were evaluated for their composition, distribution, abundance and biomass. The fauna comprised of 24 major groups belonging to 15 phyla. The density of macrofauna varied ... -
Macrobenthic assemblage in the soft sediment of Marmugao Harbour, Goa (central west coast of India)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1994)Survey of the macroinvertebrate fauna in soft sediment of 18 stations in the Marmugao Harbour revealed spatial heterogeneity based on environmental parameters and benthic assemblage. Based on the presence/absence of the ... -
Macrobenthic communities of the coastal waters of Dabhol, west coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2002)Macrobenthic community of a shallow subtidal (5-20 m) muddy deposit off Dabhol was investigated. Sediment comprised mainly of silt and clay with less of sand. Dominance of clayey-silt fraction reflects on active flocculation ... -
Macrobenthic community structure of coastal Arabian Sea during the fall intermonsoon
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)In the Arabian Sea, organic matter produced during the upwelling period reaches the seafloor by the end of the monsoon and during the fall intermonsoon period (FIM) Studies on the benthic community is lacking during this ... -
Macrobenthic community structure response to coastal hypoxia off Southeastern Arabian sea
(Omics, 2016)The analysis of changes in macrobenthic community using multivariate statistical techniques has been applied to find the structure by the environmental condition. The aim of the study was to evaluate macrofaunal community ... -
Macrobenthic diversity and community structure at Cochin Port, an estuarine habitat along the southwest coast of India
(2020)Estuarine habitats are highly dynamic owing to tidal and seasonal changes in physical and chemical properties, which, in turn, have a profound influence on the diversity and community structure of its living components. ... -
Macrobenthic fauna with special reference to the ecology and population structure of a tubicolous amphipod, Chelicorophium madrasensis (Nayar, 1950) in a tropical estuary, southwest coast of India
(2019)The ecology and population structure of the corophid amphipod Chelicorophium madrasensis (Nayar, 1950) was studied for 1�year in the Cochin estuary (CE), a tropical monsoonal estuary along the southwest coast of India. The ... -
Macrobenthic production in Vembanad lake

Macrobenthic standing stock in the nodule areas of Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Regional Research laboratory, Bhubaneswar, 2005)Diversity, distribution and standing stock of macrofauna in the nodule areas of Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) were studied during April 2003. The density ranged between 22 to 132 no.m super(-2) (mean: 55 + or - 37 SD, ... -
Macrobenthos at marine hotspots along the northwest Indian inner shelf: Patterns and drivers
(Elsevier, 2019)Marine hotspots are areas prioritized for conservation and monitoring, based on their sensitivity or vulnerability. Understanding the natural variability of resident organisms in such critical areas is integral for deciphering ... -
Macrobenthos community response to the seasonal hypoxia associated with coastal upwelling off Kochi, along the Southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)This study presents the seasonal macrobenthic assemblages in the nearshore environment off Kochi along the southwest coast of India, which is exposed to the freshwater influx, and coastal upwelling associated seasonal ... -
Macrobenthos in anthropogenically influenced zones of a coralline marine protected area in the Gulf of Kachchh, India
(Elsevier, 2013)The Gulf of Kachchh Marine National Park and Sanctuary (MNPS) has one of the four coral reef systems of India. However, owing to its unique geographical position, this area has been transformed into an industrial hub ... -
Macrobenthos in the nearshore coastal system of Bombay
(National Academy of Sciences, India, 1995)Distribution, abundance and biodiversity of macrobenthic standing stock in the nearshore coastal system of Bombay, Maharashtra, India were estimated (1985-86) in relation to the prevailing environmental stress due to ... -
Macrobenthos of the Cochin backwater

Macrobenthos of the shelf off north eastern Bay of Bengal
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1982)An extensive survey (76,363 km super(2)) of shelf benthos along the north east coast of India revealed that the macrobenthic production is rich and is comparable with that of the west coast. The biomass and population count ... -
Macrobenthos of Vembanad estuary in relation to the deposition of degraded water fern Salvinia and other macrophytes
(Kerala: State Committee on Science, Technology and Environment, 1987)Composition and seasonal abundance of macrobenthos in Vembanad estuary (India) seems to be influenced by the density of decaying macrophytes, especially the water fern Salvinia , deposited at the bottom of the estuary at ... -
Macrobenthos off Mahim (Bombay), west coast of India in relation to coastal pollution and aquaculture
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1995)Deterioration of water quality clearly indicated a moderate to severe coastal pollution around Mahim whereas a relatively healthy marine environment towards offshore was noticed. Foraminiferans, polychaetes, crustaceans ... -
