Repercussions of embarkation wharves in Lakshadweep Islands on coral communities and their ecology
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Present study infers that the construction of embarkation wharves in four of the Lakshadweep islands (Agatti, Amini, Kavaratti and Minicoy) in the last 5 years was accompanied by a marked degradation of coral community ...
Land use/land cover changes around Rameshwaram Island, east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Land-use/land cover changes are studied using the Indian Remote Sensing satellite (IRS-1C, IRS-6) Linear Image Self-scan Sensor (LISS) III data of 1998 and 2010 Coastal land use categories such as sand, vegetation, coral ...
Distribution, factor analysis and ecology of benthic foraminifera within inner shelf regime of Vengurla-Bhatkal sector, West Coast, India
(Geological Society of India, 1987)
One hundred and two taxa of benthic foraminifera are reported from the neritic environment (15-60 m) of Vengurla - Bhatkal area. Q-mode factor analysis reveals 6 important foraminiferal assemblages accounting for 92% of ...
Recent foraminiferal assemblages from the continental shelf sediments of Madras, Bay of Bengal
(Delhi: Hindustan Pub. Co, 1978)
During the 15th cruise of INS Kistna, as part of the International Indian Ocean Expedition, several sub-surface samples were collected, (using LaFond-Dietz snapper), from the continental shelf region of the Bay of Bengal. ...
Agglutinated foraminifera from the shelf of east coast of India
(1972)
Of the benthonic foraminiferal species, the agglutinated forms form one of the distinctive elements by differing in type and the degree of their abundance in the several zones of the marine environment. The role played by ...
Some aberrant foraminifera from the shelf sediments of central east coast of India
(1972)
A rich foraminiferal outer shelf assemblage has yielded some aberrant forms in the case of @iUvigerina@@ sp. @iSiphonoperta@@ sp., and @iNodosaria@@ sp. The aberration is (1) in the development of two terminal apertures ...
Occurrence of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma new subspecies in the shelf-slope sediments of northern Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1977)
Specimens of @iNeogloboquadrina pachyderma@@ (Ehrenberg) which are considered to be typical bipolar, coolerwater species, are described in the recent shelf-slope sediments of the northern Indian Ocean as far north as 23~'N ...
Seafloor micro-roughness, benthic macro-fauna, and sediment substrate: A study of their interrelationship using high-frequency echo-sounding systems
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2015)
The spatial variability of sediment geoacoustic inversion results, derived from dual-frequency single-beam (SBES) and multi-beam echosounder system (MBES) operable at 33/210 kHz and 95 kHz, respectively, have been analyzed ...
Surface morphology of some articulated corallines from India
(Current Science Association, 1994)
Surface structures of seven species belonging to four genera of subfamily Corallinoidae (Fly: Corallinaceae) were microscopically investigated Two distinct surface morphologies were revealed namely a 'Corallina type' ...
Status and review of health of Indian coral reefs
(Department of Aquatic Biology & Fisheries University of Kerala, 2015)
Status of reef health incorporating species-wise cover of scleractinians has been reported covering 61 stations in 29 reef locations of the four major reef regions in India as of March 2011, alongside a review of available ...
