Ecology of Pleuromamma indica Wolfenden (Copepoda - Calanoida) in the Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Pleuromamma indica was the only species among the 7 species of the genus, recorded in the area, to be present in 2 restricted areas, one near the mouth of the Gulf of Oman in the Arabian Sea and the other in the Bay of ...
Microenvironments and anomalous benthic foraminiferal distribution within the neritic regime of the Dabhol-Vengurla sector (Arabian Sea)
(Universita' degli Studi di Milano, 1980)
An anomalous distribution of benthic Foraminifera within the neritic regime at a few stations indicates the existence of microenvironments. The vertical distribution is marked by the restricted occurrence of @iCibicides@@ ...
Clay mineral distribution from Bhimunipatnam to Pudimadaka along cental eastern continental shelf of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1989)
Forty eight sediment samples, collected from 50-100m depth, have been analysed for their clay mineral composition and distribution. Kaolinite with chlorite (K + C) is the predominant mineral followed by illite and ...
Distribution of some biochemical compounds in the sediments of the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 1988)
Surficial sediment samples collected from the continental shelf and slope of the Bay of Bengal were studied for the distribution of organic carbon and its constituent fractions such as carbohydrates, proteins, amino acids ...
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 ...
Phytoplankton distribution in the coastal waters off Porbandar (Saurashtra)
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1988)
Skeletonema costatum was the most abundant species in all the 3 stations. The distribution of Asterionella japonica was least consistent than that of Nitzschia closterium which was most consistent at Station 1. At station ...
Commercially important penaeid shrimp larvae in the estuaries of Goa
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1987)
Larval stages of the penaeid shrimps, Metapenaeus dobsoni (Miers), M. affinis (Milne - Edwards) and Penaeus merguiensis De Man were mostly distributed at the lower reaches of Mandovi and Zuari estuaries. While larvae of ...
Distribution, factor analysis and ecology of benthic foraminifera within inner shelf regime of Vengurla-Bhatkal sector, West Coast, India
(Geological Society of India, 1987)
One hundred and two taxa of benthic foraminifera are reported from the neritic environment (15-60 m) of Vengurla - Bhatkal area. Q-mode factor analysis reveals 6 important foraminiferal assemblages accounting for 92% of ...
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 ...
Water characteristics and transport of the Antarctic circumpolar current in the Indian Ocean
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1988)
Geostrophic velocities are computed across meridians 37 degrees E and 105 degrees E using hydrographic data. The estimated mass transport is represented on a temperature - salinity diagram. The characteristics of the water ...
