Primary production of tropical marine ecosystems
(Wiley Eastern, New Delhi, 1992)
Among tropical marine ecosystems estuaries are one of the highly productive areas and act as a nursery to large number of organisms. The primary production in most of the estuaries is less during the monsoon period. ...

(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 1994)
On 5 June 1994, ore carrier M.V. Sea Transporter, was drifted to Sinquerim-Goa coast from Mormugao harbour in the squall that hit the Goa coast and grounded on the rocks, a few metres from the Sinquerim beach. The ship ...
Hydrographic characteristics of the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1999)
Oceanographic studies in the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean (58-61 degrees S and 30-40 degrees E) carried out during December 1995 and March 1996 indicate a 3-layer structure typical of summer in the oceanic domain ...
On the possible causes of the seasonal phytoplankton blooms along the southwest coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)
Data collected off the southwest coast of India at the onset of the 1987 southwest monsoon season suggest that the commonly observed high concentrations of chlorophyll and rates of photosynthesis of the season may not be ...
