Title Plankton in relation to coastal pollution at Ennore, Madras Coast
 
Creator Sivaswamy, S Narendar
 
Description 115-119
Water samples collected at Ennore estuary, Madras, India, Ennore spout and Santhome were analysed for temperature, pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen and nutrients. There were considerable fluctuations in all the physicochemical parameters. Concentration of organochlorine pesticides in water and sediment exceeded the safety limit. Cd, Cu, Pb, Ni and Zn were estimated in water and sediment samples. Phyto and zooplankton populations fluctuated at different stations during different seasons. Changes in planktonic population are discussed with reference to variations in the different physicochemical parameters.
