Seasonal patterns of phytoplankton biomass and productivity in a tropical estuarine complex (west coast of India)
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1989)
Phytoplankton cell numbers and chlorophyll a determinations were made during the premonsoon, monsoon and postmonsoon periods in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine complex (west coast of India). Primary productivity estimates ...
Phytoplankton distribution in the coastal waters off Porbandar (Saurashtra)
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1988)
Skeletonema costatum was the most abundant species in all the 3 stations. The distribution of Asterionella japonica was least consistent than that of Nitzschia closterium which was most consistent at Station 1. At station ...
Seasonal variation of the salinity in the Zuari estuary, Goa
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1987)
The annual salt budget of the Zuari is examined. The characteristics of the estuary differ markedly from the low run off season during November - May to the heavy run off period of the southwest monsoon from June to October. ...
Distribution of nutrients in the coastal and estuarine waters of Goa
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1987)
Concentrations of nitrate and phosphate in the coastal waters of Goa varied from 0 to 2.4 mu g at 1-1 and from 0.1 to 2.4 mu g at 1-1 respectively, during post and premonsoon periods. In the estuarine region the nutrients ...
Estuarine characteristics of the lower reaches of the River Periyar (Cochin backwater)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Lower reaches of river Periyar were studied to assess longitudinal extent of salt water intrusion into the system during different seasons and also its effect on the flushing of pollutants introduced by the industries. ...
Variations of dissolved oxygen in Mandovi and Zuari estuaries
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
During non-monsoon months the estuaries were well mixed showing uniform oxygen concentrations from surface to bottom. However, during monsoon months both the estuaries showed stratified conditions with surface water showing ...
Atypical behaviour of dissolved silicate in the Cochin backwater and Periyar river
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Dissolved silicate was determined for 1 y (1982-83) covering a wide range of salinity from the estuarine mouth to the fresh water region. Silicate concentration ranged between 0.03 and 4.75 mgl/1. Silicate-salinity ...
Environmental conditions of some paddy cum prawn culture fields of Cochin backwaters, southwest coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen, inorganic phosphate, ammonia, nitrate and nitrite of seasonal and perennial prawn culture fields from 3 areas of Cochin backwaters are studied. Area 1 is a region least affected ...
Physical characteristics of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat, West coast of India. Part 2. Vertical homogeneity of temperature and salinity
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1982)
Vertical distribution of temperature and salinity at five stations in the coastal waters off Navapur-Umbharat (Maharashtra-Gujarat coast, India) was studied over different seasons during 1978. The results showed that inspite ...
Ecological Studies on the Seasonal Production of the Edible Oyster, Crassostrea Madrasensis (Preston) in Cochin Backwater, Kerala
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)
Seasonal variation in the standing crop of intertidal oyster Crassostrea madrasensis at Ramanthuruth and Vallarpadom in the Cochin backwater for the period July 1974 to December 1975 showed that the maximum yield (whole ...
