Ecology of hydromedusae from Bombay Harbour - Thana and Bassein Creek estuarine complex
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)
Species composition, abundance, seasonal variation and distribution of Hydromedusae were carried out during October 1985 to September 1986. Thirty four species belonging to twenty two genera were recorded from this region. ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Latitudinal range of epiplanktonic Cahetognatha and Ostracoda in the western tropical Indian Ocean
(Springer, 1984)
An account of the chaetognath and ostracod species obtained from zooplankton samples collected along a transect in the Western Indian Ocean between 9 degrees N-20 degrees S and 57 degrees 18'-68 degrees 43'E in January-February ...
Concentration and toxicity of some metals in zooplankton from nearshore waters of Bombay
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1985)
Zooplankton samples collected from 4 stations located in the nearshore waters of Bombay were analysed for Cu, Co, Mn, Ni and Cd. Concentrations of Co, Mn and Ni were more in copepods and gelatinous organisms than in mysids ...
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 ...
