El Nino: The climate changer
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1986)
EL Nino is an abnormal warm situation in the Pacific Ocean which manifests once in a few years due to ocean-atmosphere interaction. It is much talked about inrecent times because it is believed to be'associated with floods, ...
Biochemical studies in Ulva reticulata Forsskal
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 1986)
Major metabolites like proteins, carbohydrates and lipids in the alga Ulva reticulata were estimated. Carbohydrate was found to decrease after December which may perhaps be due to the spore formation and extensive growth ...
Characterization of purple and green photosynthetic bacteria isolated from the lagoon of Agatti Atoll (Lakshadweep Sea)
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 1986)
The occurrence and characterisation of photosynthetic sulphur bacteria in the tropical waters is reported. These were found with decaying beds of seagrass at Agatti Island, Lakshadweep, India. These were cultured and ...
Relationship between chlorophyll-a and column primary production
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 1986)
Relationship between surface chlorophyll a and column primary production has been established to help in estimating the latter more quickly and accurately. The equation derived is Primary Production, y = 0.54 Ln Chl a - ...
Some oceanographic observations in the polynya and along a section in the southwest Indian/ Antarctic Ocean
(1986)
Hydrographical and hydrochemical observations have been made at a shelf station off Princess Astrid Coast, Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica, and at 11 other stations along a transect from Antarctica to about 30~'S latitude. ...
Chemical oceanography of the Arabian Sea: Part vi - Relationship between nutrients and dissolved oxygen in the central basin
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Inorganic nitrate and phosphate relationships with apparent oxygen utilization (AOU) in the Central Arabian Sea were studied using data collected during 103 cruise of R V Gaveshani (Feb. 1982). The consolidated ratio of ...
Persistence and fate of some organophosphorus pesticides in sea sediments along east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Stability and fate of pesticides, monocrotophos, phosphamidon and DDVP, were studied in sediment samples collected along the east coast of India pH, salinity and exchangeable cations present in sediments exhibited profound ...
Distribution of Bowen ratio over the north Indian Ocean
(India Meteorological Department, 1986)
The monthly averages of Bowen ratio over the north Indian Ocean have been computed Three typical situations in the months of January May and September are taken for the present study Month to month differences in the Bowen ...
Ecological studies of Ulva reticulata Forsskal in Chapora bay (Goa)
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1986)
The patchy occurrence of Ulva reticulata Forskal along the west coast of India lead to its ecological studies. The total annual yield of . reticulata calculated for 3800 sq. m. area of the bay amounts to 6.74 tonnes wet ...
Regional tectonic trends on the inner continental shelf off Konkan and central west coast of India
(Springer, 1986)
Satellite imagery and offshore magnetic data were analysed to correlate regional tectonic elements on the inner continental shelf off Konkan and the adjacent Deccan plateau. Three statistically important lineament trends ...
