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 ...
Contribution of the thraustochytrid Corallochytrium limacisporum Raghu-kumar to microbial biomass in coral reef lagoons
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)
ATP and organic carbon (OC) contents of cells of 5 isolates of thraustochytrids, including one of Corallochytrium limacisporum were estimated from cultures OC:ATP ratio in these isolates averaged 99 Based on these and the ...
Distribution of algae, seagrasses, and coral communities from Lakshadweep islands, eastern Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)
Marine algae, seagrasses and coral from the intertidal, lagoon, reef and subtidal regions (up to 22 m depth) at Kavaratti, Agatti, Bangaram and Suheli islands, of Lakshadweep were studied Marine algae and seagrasses were ...
Validity of zooplankton biomass estimates and energy equivalent in the Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Analysis of the published data on zooplankton biomass in the Indian Ocean reveals that due to omission of data from highly productive neritic Waters, the projected values of 519 x 10 6 tons become underestimated by 91 x ...
Nutrient uptake and regeneration ratios in the Red sea with reference to the nutrient budgets
(Elsevier, 1986)
The relationships between apparent oxygen utilization and inorganic micronutrients have been studied on the basis of extensive observation in the Red Sea. The ratios obtained are - Delta AOU: Delta SiO4: Delta NO3: Delta ...
Meiobenthos of polluted and unpolluted environments of Versova, Bombay
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1984)
Quantitative distribution of meiobenthic faune of Varsova (Bombay, Maharashtra, India) waters was studied at four stations during November, 1979 to December, 1980. The nearshore areas represent a typical polluted environment ...
Benthic macro and meiofauna of seagrass (Thalassia hemprichii) bed at Minicoy, Lakshadweep
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Macrofauna, comprising 9 groups, was dominated by polychaete worms, while meiofauna, comprising 10 groups, was dominated by nematodes Densities of both macro and meiofauna were higher near the shore where biomass of Thalassia ...
Diurnal variation of zooplankton in Malad creek, Bombay
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Variation in zooplankton biomass and composition in relation to the prevailing hydrographical conditions was studied for 24 h in Malad Creek, Bombay, Maharashtra, India, which was highly polluted by sewage. The adverse ...
Diurnal variation of zooplankton off Versova (Bombay)
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1984)
Physicochemical parameters and diurnal variaion of zooplankton were studied off Versova on 17/18 February 1981. Salinity and dissolved oxygen showed limited variation during the period of study. Nutrient values followed ...
Benthic studies in south Gujarat estuaries
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)
Benthic biomass and faunal composition in relation to various environmental conditions of the four South Gujarat estuaries namely the Auranga, Ambika, Purna and Mindola were studied and compared. Mean population density ...
