Title Observations on the distribution and
occurrence of diatoms in the inshore
waters of the Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay
 
Creator Raghu Prasad, R
Nair, P V Ramachandran
 
Subject Phytoplanktons
 
Description From year to year qualitative and quantitative variations, as well as
fluctuations of a minor nature in the regularity in appearance or disappearance
of diatoms and their blooms are found in every region. As the diatoms
constitute the chief components of the primary food supply of the sea, data
on their occurrence, distribution pattern and fluctuations are of importance.
Therefore, an attempt was made to study the nature and composition of
the diatom community that occur in the plankton of Mandapam area, the
abundance of species and the recurrent pattern in the annual distribution
of the various species.
