Ecological energetics of benthic communities of an estuarine system of the west coast of India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1994)
An attempt has been made to measure the biomass and quantify the production rates of different size groups of benthic organisms. The average annual production rates of microphytobenthos, meiobenthos and macrobenthos were ...
Benthic environmental baseline investigations in the manganese nodule area of the central Indian Basin
(Honolulu: International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineering, 1997)
In order to exploit the manganese nodule deposits in future, an assessment of the environmental impact due to potential mining activity, has been undertaken in the Central Indian Basin Under this programme, seabed surveys ...
Meiobenthos in the sediments of seagrass meadows of Lakshadweep atolls, Arabian Sea
(New York : Masson, 1994)
Macrobenthic assemblage in the soft sediment of Marmugao Harbour, Goa (central west coast of India)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1994)
Survey of the macroinvertebrate fauna in soft sediment of 18 stations in the Marmugao Harbour revealed spatial heterogeneity based on environmental parameters and benthic assemblage. Based on the presence/absence of the ...
Ecology of a heterotrichous ciliate Fabrea salina from salterns of Bombay Coast, India
(International Society for Tropical Ecology, 1994)
The abundance and population size structure of a heterotrichous ciliate @iFabrea salina@@, was studied in relation to hydrochemical and hydrobiological variables in three hypersaline ponds of Bombay, west coast of India ...
Impact of aquaculture on coastal marine environment
(Muzaffarnagar: Society of Biosciences, 1994)
Since aquaculture is intimately linked with aquatic environmental quality, entry of pollutants to coastal waters constitutes the greatest threat to marine environmental quality and, hence, to long term viability of coastal ...
Studies on experimental culture of a marine ciliate Fabrea salina
(Oxford and IBH, Calcutta, 1999)
Studies were conducted on the culture of a marine ciliate, Fabrea salina in the laboratory condition. Three types of inert feed; commercial yeast, fermented wheat bran and fermented rise bran were tested to study their ...
Meiofaunal stratification in relation to microbial food in a tropical mangrove mud flat
(International Society of Tropical Ecology, Varanasi, India, 1993)
The vertical gradients of meiofauna mainly in relation to biochemical changes and microbial abundance in the upper 20 cm of deposit of a mangrove mud flat were studied. Strong vertical gradients in the redox potential (Eh), ...
Population characteristics of the mole crab, Hippa adactyla Fabricius, in the intertidal sediment at Kavaratti Atoll, Lakshadweep Islands
(Rosenstiel School of Marine Sicence, 1998)
Some population characteristics of a little known mole crab Hippa adactyla from the sandy intertidal habitat of Kavaratti atoll, Lakshadweep islands, were studied for understanding the resource potentials besides some ...
Acute toxicity and effect of some petroleum hydrocarbon on the metabolic index in Etroplus suratensis
(Society of Biosciences, Muzaffarnagar (India), 1997)
Acute toxicity (LC sub(50)) and effect of some petroleum hydrocarbons (Toluene, Quinoline, Pyridine and Naphthalene) on the metabolic index (oxygen consumption rate) of an estuarine fish. Etroplus suratensis is reported. ...
