Morphometry and cell volumes of diatoms from a tropical estuary of India
(NISCAIR, India, 2009)
Cell volumes and per cell carbon contents of different diatoms (10 centric, 14 pennate and 1 dinoflagellate) collected from Dona Paula Bay in the central west coast of India have been analyzed. Morphometric information on ...
Marine bioinvasion: Concern for ecology and shipping
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2002)
Marine bioinvasion - introduction of marine organisms alien to local ecosystem through ship hulls and ballast water - has serious consequences to native biota, fishery and general coastal ecosystem. Over 80% of the world ...
Mesozooplankton community in the Bay of Bengal (India): Spatial variability during the summer monsoon
(Springer, 2009)
This study addresses the spatial variability in mesozooplankton biomass and composition in the Central and Western Bay of Bengal (India) during the summer monsoon season of 2001. Perennially warmer sea surface temperatures ...
Potential of mercury-resistant marine bacteria for detoxification of chemicals of environmental concern
(The Japanese Society of Microbial Ecology, 2007)
The hypothesis that mercury-resistant bacteria exposed to polluted environments such as coastal areas can tolerate, detoxify, or biotransform a variety of other toxicants was examined. Several mercury-resistant marine ...
Diversity and abundance of denitrifying and anammox bacteria from the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone
(Elsevier, 2018)
Bacterial community involved in nitrogen transformations in the oxygen minimum zones (OMZ) with dissolved oxygen (DO) levels below 0.5-ml-L-1 is ascribed to be responsible for the reported 40% losses of fixed nitrogen. The ...
A review on fungal diseases of algae, marine fishes, shrimps and corals
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2006)
It is a well-known fact that diseases affect health, survival and recruitment of any individual susceptible for diseases. As a consequence of disease, harvests from natural resources and, in particular, those from aquaculture ...
Coliform and human pathogenic bacteria in tourism affected water bodies in North Goa
(Anon, 2002)
Microscopic bacteria, which are diverse and preponderant in all ecosystems, sense changes in any environment fast because of their ability to metabolize a variety of chemical substances for their nutrition and growth. In ...
Environmental controls on the seasonal carbon dioxide fluxes in the northeastern Indian Ocean
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2010)
Total carbon dioxide (TCO sub(2)) and computations of partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO sub(2)) had been examined in Northerneastern region of Indian Ocean. It exhibit seasonal and spatial variability. North-south ...
Response of polar front phytoplankton and bacterial community to micronutrient amendments
(Elsevier, 2015)
In a shipboard microcosm experiment we manipulated cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), and Fe+Co availability in surface water samples collected during austral summer of 2013 from a Polar front (PF) location in the Indian ...
Need for science-policy linkages for river basins and coastal zone management: Meeting report
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
