Distribution and species composition of planktonic luminous bacteria in the Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)
Distribution of the total viable heterotrophic bacteria and the luminous bacteria in the neretic and oceanic waters of the west coast of India was studied. Counts of viable heterotrophs fluctuated widely, generally with a ...
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 ...
Zooplankton incidence in abnormally high sea surface temperature in the Eastern Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1983)
Zooplankton in an abnormally high sea surface temperature (33.1 to 33.8 degrees C) and alternate bands of slick formation were studied in the Eastern Arabian Sea during 26 and 29 April 1981. The phenomenon which may be due ...
Lipid content in surface water of Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1983)
Total lipid values varied from 165 - 293 mu g-1/1. Polar fraction was the major constituent (57 - 85%) of total lipid
Macrobenthos of the shelf off north eastern Bay of Bengal
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1982)
An extensive survey (76,363 km super(2)) of shelf benthos along the north east coast of India revealed that the macrobenthic production is rich and is comparable with that of the west coast. The biomass and population count ...
Distribution of planktonic decapods with special reference to Acetes from nearshore waters of Bombay
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1982)
Distribution and seasonal variation of decapod larvae were studied from eight stations off Versova and Mahim during Nov. 1979 to Dec. 1980. Decapod larvae were encountered throughout the year contributing 7.27% of total ...
Sub-littoral Meiobenthos of the Northeastern Bay of Bengal
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1982)
Of the 11 taxonomic groups represented, Nematoda followed by foraminifera and harpacticoida were dominant Meiofaunal abundance was more related to the texture of the sediment than variation in depth Population density ...
Ecological regime and distribution of Virgulinella spp. in the inshore sediments of western India
(Elsevier, 1982)
@iVirgulinella@@ Cushman, 1932 was distinguished as a subgenus from @iVirgulina@@ d'Orbigny, 1826 (non @iVirgulina@@ Bory, 1823 = @iFursenkoina@@) on the basis of the development of numerous small arched sutural openings ...
Distribution of Meiobenthos and Macrobenthos at the mouth of some Rivers of the East Coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1982)
Distribution of meio- and macrobenthos of muddy bottom deposits at the mouth of Krishna, Godavari, Mahanadi and Hooghly rivers was studied from replicate sampling Total meiofauna ranged from 226 animals/4.5 cm super(2) to ...
Bacteriological studies off Mangalore coast
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1982)
Bacteriological studies of sediment and water in the near shore region off Mangalore showed that both limnotolerant and halotolerant bacteria were present. Significant inter-correlation (quantitative and qualitative) could ...
