Trophic efficiency of plankton food webs: Observations from the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Bay, Southeast Coast of India
(Elsevier, 2013)
This paper introduces the structure and trophic efficiency of plankton food webs in the Gulf of Mannar (GoM) and the Palk Bay (PB) - two least studied marine environments located between India and Sri Lanka. The study is ...
A comparative study on mesozooplankton abundance and diversity between a protected and an unprotected coastal area of Andaman Islands.
(Springer, 2014)
The study was carried out to understand the variability in phytoplankton production (Chlorophyll a) and mesozooplankton diversity from two different shallow coastal regions of south Andaman viz. Port Blair Bay (PBB), the ...
Arabian Sea oceanography and fisheries
(Fishery Survey of India, 2004)
The physical and chemical forcing which drive the Arabian production is now fairly well understood. The main attributes, which contribute to the productivity are (1) the boundary processes which manifest as upwelling during ...
Effect of freshwater influx on phytoplankton in the Mandovi estuary (Goa, India) during monsoon season: Chemotaxonomy
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013)
The Mandovi estuary is a prominent water body that runs along the west coast of India. It forms an estuarine network with the adjacent Zuari estuary, connected via the Cumbharjua canal. The physico-chemical conditions seen ...
Influence of physical processes and freshwater discharge on the seasonality of phytoplankton regime in the Bay of Bengal
(Pergamon, 2000)
The seasonality of phytoplankton was examined in the western and northern Bay of Bengal using shipboard data collected during three seasons as well as ocean colour imagery from OCTS and Sea WiFS. Seasonal changes in the ...
Basin-wide seasonal evolution of the Indian Ocean's phytoplankton blooms
(American Geophysical Union, 2007)
A climatology of Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor (SeaWiFS) chlorophyll data over the Indian Ocean is used to examine the bloom variability patterns, identifying spatio-temporal contrasts in bloom appearance and ...
Variability in biological responses influenced by upwelling events in the Eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2008)
This study documents the result of field observations from the southeastern Arabian Sea during onset, peak and late phases of summer monsoon. The pronounced variations in phytoplankton standing stock (chlorophyll a), primary ...
Chlorophyll modulation of mixed layer thermodynamics in a mixed-layer isopycnal general circulation model - An example from Arabian Sea and Equatorial Pacific
(NIO, Dona Paula, Goa (India), 2000)
Western Tropical Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea and equatorial Pacific are known to be regions of intense bio-chemical-physical interactions with Arabian sea being largest in seasonal phytoplankton bloom while the equatorial ...
Seasonal variations in uptake and in situ regeneration of nitrogen in mangrove waters
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 2002)
Seasonal changes of uptake of nitrogenous nutrients (NH sub(4) sup(+), NO sub(3) sup(-), NO sub(2) sup(-), and urea) and regeneration (NH sub(4) sup(+) and NO sub(2) sup(-) production) in the plankton fraction of a mangrove ...
Nitrogen uptake by size-fractionated phytoplankton in mangrove waters
(Inter Research, 2005)
Seasonal changes in the uptake of nitrogenous nutrients (nitrate, nitrite, ammonium and urea) in 2 size fractions (netplankton: 20 to 200 Mu m; and nanoplankton: 0.8 to 20 Mu m) were studied in relationship to the phytoplankton ...
