Biological and biochemical characterization of microfouling on aluminium panels placed in the Arabian Sea
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1989)
Microfouling biomass was higher in the shelf waters (< 200 m) as compared with the slope waters (> 200 m). Bacteria were first to colonize on the aluminium surfaces as irregular formations during the initial stages of ...
Distribution of particulate organic carbon in the central Arabian Sea
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1988)
Particulate organic carbon (POC) of 161 water samples collected from 8 depths (surface to 1000m) at 21 stations was measured. The POC concentrations ranged from 154 to 554 kappa g per litre at the surface and decreased in ...
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 ...
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 ...
Biochemical composition and calorific value of zooplankton from northern part of Central Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Average biomass value of zooplankton obtained was 22.69 ml 100 m-3. Average percentages of lipid, carbohydrate, protein and carbon were 6.3, 6.0, 23.6 and 34.62 respectively. Calorific values ranged between 6217 and 24708 ...
Oceanography of the northern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1982)
The euphotic zone of the northern Arabian Sea ranges from 20-60 m with an average depth of about 40 m. Surface temperatures range from 22.5 to 28.5 degrees C, increasing from north to south. At 1000 m, the temperature is ...
Studies on zooplankton from the Arabian sea off the south-central west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1982)
Zooplankton biomass, composition and biochemical constituents were studied. Estimated average zooplankton biomass was 8.76 ml/100 m super(3). Of the major components constituting the zooplankton biomass, copepods formed ...
Chemical Oceanography of the Arabian sea. Part - V. Hydrochemical Characteristics off the Central West Coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1980)
Data from Arabian Sea cruises 46 (December 1978) and 59 (October 1979) of R V Gaveshani have been used to calculate rates of denitrification at intermediate depths (72-1200 m). About 34% of the available nitrate-nitrogen ...
