Description |
1905-1913
Phytoplankton based studies have become a major area of research among plankton biologists in recent times as a responsive entity for climatic change. Sundarbans ecoregion has gained considerable impetus in context of the Indian subcontinent as a major study area due to the mixing conditions prevalent in this area, brought about by the confluence of several important rivers and the coastal waters of the Bay of Bengal. Cellular biovolume has become a more appropriate proxy for phytoplankton estimation as compared to cell count data in the past decade due to their wide applicability in phytoplankton studies. Present study is a literary review of the different phytoplankton related studies that have been carried out from the Sundarbans mangrove ecoregion with an emphasis on cellular biovolume. This review will act as future reference point for plankton biologists working from the Sundarbans ecoregion with emphasis on cell biovolume estimation. |
