Variation in meroplankton along 78 degrees E Meridian
(Marine Biological Association of India, 1989)
Variations along the meridian 78 degrees E between 8 degrees N and 25 degrees S, based on 43 zooplankton samples were studied. Fish larvae exhibited fluctuations in abundance (26 to 57 specimens/IOSN haul) in the three ...
Hydrography of the Wadge bank - premonsoon and monsoon seasons
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1989)
The hydrography of the Wadge Bank during premonsoon and monsoon seasons is presented. The thermocline slopes downward towards the central region. Upwelling is prominent in the entire region during monsoon and is observed ...
