Effect of hydrodynamic cavitation on zooplankton: A tool for disinfection
(Elsevier, 2008)
Application of hydrodynamic cavitation for disinfection of water is gaining momentum, as it provides environmentally and economically sound options. In this effort, the effect of cavitating conditions created by differential ...
Butyltins in water, biofilm, animals and sediments of the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2004)
Biofilm, fish, oyster, mussel, clam, surface seawater, suspended particulate matter (SPM), and sediment samples were collected from marine and/or estuarine waters of the west coast of India. These samples were analysed for ...
Marine bioinvasion: Concern for ecology and shipping
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2002)
Marine bioinvasion - introduction of marine organisms alien to local ecosystem through ship hulls and ballast water - has serious consequences to native biota, fishery and general coastal ecosystem. Over 80% of the world ...
Marine Bioinvasion: An Overview
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 2002)
Shipping is the backbone of global economy and facilitates transportation of 90% of commodities. A single bulk cargo ship of 200,000 tones can carry up to 60,000 tones of ballast water. It is estimated that 12 billion tones ...
Ballast Water Risk Assessment, Ports of Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru, India, October 2003: Final Report
(International Maritime Organization, 2003)
This report describes the BWRA activity undertaken for the neighbouring ports of Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru, which form the Mumbai Demonstration Site and are managed by the Mumbai Port Trust (MPT) and Jawaharlal Nehru ...
Biofouling and barnacle adhesion data for fouling-release coatings subjected to static immersion at seven marine sites
(Taylor and Francis, 2000)
Little is known about the performance of fouling release coatings at different geographical locations. An investigation was designed to measure the differences in biofouling and biofouling adhesion strength on three known ...
Butyltins in the sediments of Kochi and Mumbai harbours, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2006)
Surface sediment samples were collected from various locations in the Mumbai and Kochi harbours, west coast of India, to assess the presence of butyltin compounds. Tributyltin (TBT) and dibutyltin (DBT) varied from 16 to ...
Gyrineum natator: A potential indicator of imposex along the Indian coast
(Elsevier, 2006)
Imposex related studies have used neogastropods as sentinel organism. In this effort, we elucidate the potential of a mesogastropod, Gyrineum natator, for imposex monitoring on the central west coast of India. Observations ...
