Population abundance and species composition of chaetognaths in the Bombay harbour-Thana and Bassein creek estuarine complex
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)
Detailed study on the abundance, distribution and species composition of chaetognaths from the Bombay harbour-Thana and Bassein creek estuarine complex was carried out from October 1985 to September 1986. Percentage ...
Zooplankton characteristics of the coastal ecosystem off Bombay, India
(Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission, 1998)
The nearshore waters of Bombay sustain a rich and diverse zooplankton fauna. Continuous observations for a period of 15 months indicated a variation from 0.4 to 19.9 mg C.m sup(3) (av. 4.3 mg C.m sup(-3)) in zooplankton ...
Phytoplankton characteristics in a polluted Bombay Harbour-Thana-Bassein creek estuarine complex
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1998)
Annual variations in phytoplankton characteristics were studied from Bombay Harbour-Thana creek-Bassein creek (BHTCBC) estuarine confluence to assess the levels of pigment concentration, productivity and, qualitative and ...
Biomass, organic carbon and calorific content of zooplankton from the Arabian Sea off Central West coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Organic carbon content and calorific values of zooplankton varied from 18.35 to 32.49% (av. 27.8%) and from 2.56 to 4.71 k cal. g-1 dry wt (av. 3.99) respectively. Areawise off Gujarat sustained higher standing stock of ...
Unusual congregation of salps off Veraval and Bombay, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
During September to October swarming of salps occur along the coasts off Veraval and Bombay. These congregations off Veraval are contributed by the single species Pegea confoederata recording an unusual biomass as high as ...
Neuston composition in central Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1989)
Composition of neuston in the Arabian Sea (lat. 16-19 degrees N., long. 60-72 degrees E) was studied. The standing stock ranged between 1.5 and 49.3 ml (100 m2)-1. Copepoda was generally the dominant group, forming on ...
Diurnal variation of zooplankton in Malad creek, Bombay
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Variation in zooplankton biomass and composition in relation to the prevailing hydrographical conditions was studied for 24 h in Malad Creek, Bombay, Maharashtra, India, which was highly polluted by sewage. The adverse ...
Diurnal variation of zooplankton off Versova (Bombay)
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1984)
Physicochemical parameters and diurnal variaion of zooplankton were studied off Versova on 17/18 February 1981. Salinity and dissolved oxygen showed limited variation during the period of study. Nutrient values followed ...
Effect of tide on the variability of zooplankton in the nearshore waters of Thal, Maharashtra
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1983)
Quantitative and qualitative difference in zooplankton in relation to the tide were studied along 3 transects located off Thal, Maharashtra, India during Feb. 1980 to Jan. 1981. Variation in zooplankton biomass for the ...
Comparative account on zooplankton in polluted and unpolluted estuaries of Gujarat
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)
An assessment of the zooplankton biomass and composition in Kolak Par, Damanganga and Auranga estuaries was made. Among these four rivers pollution is severe in the first two, moderate in Damanganga and good water quality ...
