Response of the phytoplankton community to seasonal and spatial environmental conditions in the Haldia port ecosystem located in the tropical Hooghly River estuary
(Springer, 2021)
The phytoplankton community structure exhibits seasonal and spatial variations in response to the environmental conditions, which aids in understanding the ecosystem's health. Given this, four samplings were conducted ...
An inter-site study of biofouling recruitment on static immersion panels in major ports of South East Asia and India
(ASEAN Committee on Science and Technology (COST), 2018)
Limited knowledge of native marine biodiversity hinders effective biodiversity management to safeguard South and Southeast Asia�s marine coastal environment against the threat of invasive species transfer through shipping. ...
Assessment of phytoplankton photo-physiological status from a tropical monsoonal estuary
(2019)
Assessment of phytoplankton physiological responses to abiotic changes provides valuable insights into the health of an ecosystem. The variable fluorescence (F v = F m -F 0 ), photosynthetic efficiency (F v /F m ), and ...
Ballast Water Risk Assessment: the Indian experience
(ASEAN Committee on Science and Technology (COST), 2018)
The Ballast Water Risk Assessment serves as a �Decision Support System� for any given port to take appropriate ballast water management actions. Risk assessment involves collation of data from the ballast water reporting ...
Application of Fluorescence in situ hybridization-Flow cytometry (FISH-FCM) technique to detect and quantify Vibrio cholerae population from different geographic regions
(ASEAN Committee on Science and Technology (COST), 2018)
Rapid and species-specific detection, and quantification of pathogenic bacteria are fundamental for monitoring and assessment of the risk they pose to any ecosystem. The study employed Vibrio cholerae, a human pathogen ...
Influence of elevated temperature, pCO2, and nutrients on larva-biofilm interaction: Elucidation with acorn barnacle, Balanus�amphitrite Darwin (Cirripedia: Thoracica)
(Elsevier, 2017)
Selection of optimal habitat by larvae of sessile organism is influenced by cues offered by the biofilm. Ocean warming and acidification are likely to enforce changes in the biofilm community and inturn influence the ...
Dynamics of size-fractionated phytoplankton biomass in a monsoonal estuary: Patterns and drivers for seasonal and spatial variability
(Elsevier, 2018)
Phytoplankton size-fractionated biomass is an important determinant of the type of food web functioning in aquatic ecosystems. Knowledge about the effect of seasonal salinity gradient on the size-fractionated biomass ...
Picophytoplankton Synechococcus as food for nauplii of Amphibalanus amphitrite and Artemia salina
(2019)
The naupliar forms are important intermediaries between microbial and classical food web as they can efficiently graze on autotrophic picophytoplankton and heterotrophic bacteria in diverse aquatic ecosystems. Current ...
Assessing the geographical distribution of carnivorous and planktivorous fishes in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2023)
There is a clear distinction in the feeding habits of fishes between the northeastern and southeastern Arabian Sea (west coast of India) � the north is carnivorous, and the south is planktivorous �, but such a distinction ...
Phytoplankton community structure in the Kandla port ecosystem situated in a creek in the Gulf of Kutch, India
(Springer, 2023)
The port ecosystems are prone to deterioration due to the maritime and coastal activities and as a major source of the country�s economy need efficient management. Phytoplankton communities can serve as reliable indicators ...
