Ship-mediated Marine Bioinvasions: Need for a Comprehensive Global Action Plan
(ASEAN Committee on Science and Technology (COST), 2018)
Concern for marine bioinvasion has drawn international attention. The action plans in place to address this issue and those that are being promulgated are in need of a reassessment. A review of invertebrate invasions across ...
Effects of salinity on cellular growth and exopolysaccharide production of freshwater Synechococcus strain CCAP1405
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
The picocyanobacterium Synechococcus is ubiquitous in freshwater and high-saline marine ecosystems. The cellular response of freshwater Synechococcus to salinity variations is not well understood. Herein, we compare cellular ...
A new record of Scylla olivacea (Dcapoda, Bachyura, Prtunidae) from Goa, central west coast of India – A comparative diagnosis
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2013)
Taxonomic studies on mud crabs (Scylla) reveal considerable ambiguity in species identification owing to overlap of morphological characters. Present study consists a new record of Scylla olivacea along with a comparative ...
Dinoflagellate planktonic-motile-stage and benthic-cyst assemblages from a monsoon-influenced tropical harbour: Elucidating the role of environmental conditions
(2019)
Dinoflagellates are referred among potential bioinvaders and environmental proxies. Information from tropical regions on the coupling of cyst and motile stages of dinoflagellates characterized by high suspended-load, and ...
Responses of the picophytoplankton community to temperature fronts in the northeastern Arabian Sea during the northeast monsoon
(Elsevier, 2018)
We investigated the responses of the picophytoplankton (< 3-μm) community to a temperature filament and front through high resolution spatial (~ 1 NM) sampling (November-23 to December-11, 2012) in the northeastern Arabian ...
Tracking the history of dinoflagellate cyst assemblages in sediments from the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2012)
In order to trace the history of dinoflagellate cyst assemblages and provide new insights in to Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) dynamics in monsoon influenced tropical environments, sediment cores were collected from four different ...
Changes in the occurrance of hard substratum fauna: A case study from Mumbai harbour, India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2010)
Intensive sampling was carried out in the marine environment of Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru ports to investigate the composition of benthic sessile population on three different occasions during 2001 to 2002. This study ...
Estimation of diatom and dinoflagellate cell volumes from surface waters of the Northern Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2017)
Phytoplankton samples collected from the Northern Indian Ocean (Bay of Bengal, northern Arabian Sea, and Dona Paula Bay Goa, west coast of India), were utilized to quantify changes in cell size, cell volume and carbon per ...
An overview of dinoflagellate cysts in recent sediments along the west coast of India
(NISCAIR (CSIR), 2011)
Distribution and abundance of dinoflagellate cysts in recent sediments along the west coast of India (26 coastal stations and 3 ports) is presented. A total of 47 different types of cysts and a maximum abundance of 1076 ...
Understanding our seas: National Institute of Oceanography, Goa
(Current Science Association, 2015)
The present article summarizes the research done at the CSIR–National Institute of Oceanography in 2014 in ocean science, resources and technology. Significant research has been conducted on air–sea interactions and coastal ...
