An interactive program for digitization of seabed photographs
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1989)
A program for dignitization of seabed photographs to compute coverage and abundance of polymetallic nodules is developed. Since the objects in the seabed photograph are partially covered by thin sediment layer, the automatic ...
Larvae of Crossorhombus valde-rostratus (Alcock) and C. azureus (Alcock) (Heterostomata: Pisces) collected during the International Indian Ocean Expedition and Naga Expedition
(Marine Biological Association of India, 1989)
Larvae of Crossorhombus valde-rostratus (Alcock) and C. azureus (Alcock) containing post-flexion stages ranging in size from 6.0 mm to 12.9 mm SL and 7.5 mm to 18.8 mm SL respectively were found in the zooplankton collected ...
Studies on the planktonic Decapoda and Stomatopoda (Crustacea) from the western Bay of Bengal
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1988)
Abundance and distribution of decapods and stomatopods were studied, based on 90 samples collected from the western Bay of Bengal (Lat. 09 degrees 58' and 20 degrees 50'N and long. 80 degrees 00'E) between 24 August and 2 ...
Influence of regional and local topography on the distribution of polymetallic nodules in Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Springer, 1988)
Detailed bathymetric surveys from part of the Central Indian Ocean revealed several bathymetric features such as hills, slopes, valleys, and plains. Areas with a local relief of a few to hundreds of meters generally have ...
A preliminary study of anaerobic thiosulfate-oxidising bacteria as denitrifiers in the Arabian Sea
(Taylor & Francis, 1988)
Bacteria which oxidize thiosulfate and reduce nitrate (TONRB) and bacteria which oxidize thiosulfate and denitrify (TODB) sampled at 5-, 100-, 200-and 300-m depths were enumerated in agar shake cultures by colony counting ...
Pyritized ooids from the Arabian Sea basin
(Elsevier, 1988)
Pyritized ooids in association with turbidites were observed in a box core collected at a depth of 3627 m from the Arabian Sea Basin. Ooids having a shallow water origin were transported to the present depth by turbidity ...
Studies on planktonic decapoda and stomatopoda (Crustacea) from the Arabian Sea
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1987)
An account of a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the planktonic decapoda and stomatopoda collected during R.V Gaveshani Cruises 10, 12, 13 in the Arabian Sea is given. Area surveyed lies between latitudes 07 degrees ...
Studies on the intertidal macrofauna of the sandy beach at Kavarati atoll (Lakshadweep)
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1986)
The distribution of macrofauna in Kavaratti Atoll is studied in the intertidal region for over a period of 13 months. Several diversity in the faunal composition was not observed. The polychaete Scoloplos sp. and the bivalve ...
Zooplankton standing stock and composition in coastal waters of Goa, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1985)
Temporal and spatial variability in standing stock and zooplankton composition at 5 stations along the Goa Coast, India during 1975-76 were studied. Standing stock values ranged from 22.81 to 53.65 mg C.m/3. Zooplankton ...
The effect of salinity on some endocommensalic ciliates from shipworms
(Society of Fisheries Technologists, 1985)
The ciliates, Nucleocorbula adherens, Boveria teredinidi, Trichodina balakrishnia, Thigmozoon fencheli and Nyctothereus marina, live inside the mantle cavity of the ship-worms in the estuaries and backwaters of the south-west ...
