Water quality and phytoplankton characteristics in the Palk Bay, southeast coast of India.
The present study was carried out to determine the water quality in terms of physicochemical characteristics and plankton distribution in the coastal waters of Kattumavadi, Palk Bay for a period of one year from April 2002 to March 2003. Air and surface water temperatures varied from 28 degrees C to 32.50 degrees C and from 27.5 to 32.0 degrees C while light extinction coefficient (LEC) varied ...
متن کاملBiological indicators in relation to coastal pollution along Karnataka coast, India.
Marine pollutants in relation to planktonic and benthic organisms were examined at two locations along Karnataka coast, one at Kulai (74 degrees 47.74''E and 12 degrees 55.16''N) receiving huge amount of industrial effluents from fertilizer, petroleum and chemical plants along with the sewage discharges. The other site Padubidri (74 degrees 45''E and 13 degrees 10''N) is located 20 km away, whi...
متن کاملThe Presence of Biomarker Enzymes of Selected Scleractinian Corals of Palk Bay, Southeast Coast of India
The health and existence of coral reefs are in danger by an increasing range of environmental and anthropogenic impacts. The causes of coral reef decline include worldwide climate change, shoreline development, habitat destruction, pollution, sedimentation and overexploitation. These disasters have contributed to an estimated loss of 27% of the reefs. If the current pressure continues unabated,...
متن کاملPhotobacterium marinum sp. nov., a marine bacterium isolated from a sediment sample from Palk Bay, India.
The novel, cream colored, Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, motile bacteria, designated strains AK15(T) and AK18, were isolated from sediment samples collected from Palk Bay, India. Both strains were positive for arginine dihydrolase, lysine decarboxylase, oxidase, nitrate reduction and methyl red test. The major fatty acids were C16:0, C18:1 ω7c, C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c and/or iso-C15:0 2...
متن کاملSeasonal Variations in the Physico-Chemical Characteristics of the Two Coastal Waters of Palk-Strait in Tamil Nadu, India
In the present study the hydrographical parameters like temperature, hydrogen ion concentration (pH), salinity, conductivity, light penetration, turbidity, total suspended solids (mg/l), total dissolved solids, dissolved oxygen (mg/l), biological oxygen demand (mg/l) and nutrients of the surface waters were studied in both stations of Manamelkudi and S.P. Pattinam. All the physico-chemical para...
