Chemistry of the sea surface microlayer. 1. Fabrication and testing of the sampler
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 1988)
A screen sampler fabricated to study the sea surface microlayer (SML) has been described. The screen sampler was tested in the Mandovi estuary and adjacent waters. Physico-chemical parameters of the subsurface waters from ...
Phytoplankton and zooplankton of some paddy-cum-prawn culture fields in and around Cochin
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 1988)
The Phytoplankton and zooplankton from the paddy-cum-prawn culture fields from 4 areas in and around the Cochin backwaters were studied. Total Phytoplankton counts in the seasonal and perennial fields in all the areas ...
Seabed topography and distribution of manganese nodules in the Central Indian Ocean
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 1988)
The relationship between seabed topography and distribution of nodules, recovery of free fall grab samplers, nodule size and chemical composition of manganese nodules in the Central Indian Ocean have been studied. Nodule ...
Variability in wave refraction and resultant nearshore current patterns: Exposed versus sheltered beaches along north Karnataka, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
For predominant waves approaching from directions varying between SW and WNW and periods varying from 6 to 11 sec, the refraction function (Kd) shows amplification of wave heights resulting in concentration of wave energy ...
Nature of the observed oscillatory flows in shelf waters of the western continental shelf of India
(Tirunelveli: JCSONLINE, 1988)
Time series data on currents obtained from three Aanderaa current meters moored at a station depth of 92 m in the waters of the western continental shelf of India during May 1984 indicated the presence of oscillatory flows. ...
Composition and physical state of phospholipids in calanoid copepods from India and Norway
(Springer, 1988)
The fatty acid composition and physical state of isolated phospholipids obtained from marine copepods collected on the Southwest coast of India (Calanus spp.) and the west coast of Norway (Calanus finmarchicus) were ...
Distribution and behaviour of fluoride in Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, central west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Fluoride concentrations in Mandovi and Zuari estuaries are regulated largely by salt water intrusion. Highest concentrations are observed during the premonsoon season, when the salt water intrusion is also the highest, the ...
Satellite-tracked drifting buoy observations in the south equatorial current in the Indian Ocean
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1988)
Three satellite-tracked drifting buoys released in the south equatorial current in the Indian Ocean followed the path of the current moving westward approximately zonally in the vicinity of 10 degrees S latitude. On nearing ...
History and background of the project
(New Delhi: Department of Ocean Development, 1988)
The history of oceanography, the discovery of manganese nodules and the background of the developments in nodule research and mining is given The first nodules were collected in 1981 on board the research vessel R V Gaveshani ...
