Empirical relationships between phytoplankton and zooplankton biomass in Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Empirical models based on regression analysis are derived using published values of phytoplankton and crustacean zooplankton biomass from Indian Ocean. Three regression models are derived. There is significant correlation ...
Epizoic and ectoparasitic protozoans from crab larvae
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1986)
A suctorian, Ephelota gemmipara Hertwig, infesting the zoea of the peacrab, Porcellana and an ectoparasitic flagellate Ellobiopsis chattoni Caullery infecting the zoea of the crab were observed from off Cape Comorin, the ...
Nitrogenous nutrients and primary production in a tropical oceanic environment
(Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science of the University of Miami, 1986)
Measurements of the concentrations of nitrogenous nutrients and primary production were made at 10 stations along 8 degrees N and 10 degrees N in the tropical oceanic Lakshadweep waters Inorganic nitrogen (NO3, NO2 and ...
Zooplankton standing stock and composition in coastal waters of Goa, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1985)
Temporal and spatial variability in standing stock and zooplankton composition at 5 stations along the Goa Coast, India during 1975-76 were studied. Standing stock values ranged from 22.81 to 53.65 mg C.m/3. Zooplankton ...
Latitudinal range of epiplanktonic Cahetognatha and Ostracoda in the western tropical Indian Ocean
(Springer, 1984)
An account of the chaetognath and ostracod species obtained from zooplankton samples collected along a transect in the Western Indian Ocean between 9 degrees N-20 degrees S and 57 degrees 18'-68 degrees 43'E in January-February ...
Zooplankton studies in Visakhapatnam harbour and nearshore waters, east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Distribution of zooplankton biomass in the waters studied showed remarkable variations. The faunal composition was very diverse and the number of species present was more especially during late pre- and post-monsoon seasons ...
Distribution of living planktonic foraminifera in the coastal upwelling region of Kenya, Africa
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Seventeen planktonic foraminiferal species have been encountered in the plankton samples collected off the Kenya coast; the most abundant species are Globigerinella aequilateralis, Globigerinoides ruber, G. sacculifer, ...
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 ...
Living planktonic foraminifera of the Wadge bank, Northern Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Twenty three species of living planktonic Foraminifera belonging to 11 genera have been studied from the Wadge Bank area off southern tip of the Indian peninsula. The fauna is characterized by species such as Globigerinoides ...
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 ...
