Phytoplankton production and chlorophyll distribution in the eastarn and central Arabian Sea in 1994-1995
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
Measurements of primary production, chlorophyll a, particulate organic carbon (POC) and nitrogen (PON) were carried out during the inter-monsoon winter monsoon and summer monsoon seasons of 1994-95 in the central and eastern ...
Biomass relations between phytoplankton and zooplankton in Goa waters
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Biomass of phytoplankton and zooplankton, measured as particulate oxidizable carbon, shows that at shallowest stations (5 m) there is large excess of phytoplankton organic carbon over zooplankton carbon in all the samples ...
Extracellular products of photosynthesis in a tropical environment
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1987)
Extracellular products in the Arabian Sea averaged 0.42 g/cm2/day and represented 35% of the total carbon fixed by phytoplankton. No seasonal changes are observed during the two seasons i.e. premonsoon (Jan-Feb) and onset ...
Relationship between particulate and extracellular carbon compounds of phytoplankton photosynthesis in a tropical estuary
(Inter-Research, 1986)
The influence of seasonal environmental conditions on the formation and release of organic compounds by photosynthesizing phytoplankton was studied in a tropical estuary. The pattern of 14C fixation into the various ...
Effect of environment on pigment ratios in Dunaliella spp. from the salt pans of Gujarat
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1989)
The effect of varying salinity and pH of the medium on growth and pigment ratios of Dunaliella cells in culture was studied. Cell growth was found to be optimal at pH 8 and at intermediate salt concentrations of 1-2 M NaCl. ...
Contribution of Phytoplankton Photosynthesis to a Mangrove Ecosystem
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1980)
Primary production in a fringing mangrove ecosystem was measured using two techniques. The first estimated gross oxygen production and community metabolism based on the diel difference in dissolved oxygen concentrations. ...
Primary productivity of the Arabian Sea
(Wiley Eastern, New Delhi, 1992)
Reversal of surface circulation during the monsoons, patchy nutrient distributions and high light intensity drive phytoplankton production processes in the tropical Arabian Sea. Available data are discussed in the light ...
