    Present Status of Hydrographical Variables of the Amirthi River in Amirthi Forest, Vellore

    By C. Govindasamy, V. Vanniyanathan, R. Srinivasan, K. Anantharaj

    Abstract: ABSTRACTThe present study was carried out to determine the water quality in terms of physicochemical characteristics variables in the running water ecosystem for a period of three months from January to March 2007. The post-monsoon variation of hydrography variables and dissolved nutrients such as PO4-P, NO3-N, NO2-N, K, Mg and Ca were high at all the stations. In the running water, the Chloride (24 mgl−1 to 1733 mgl−1), Fluoride (0.2 …

    Nutritive Evaluation and Growth Rate of Artemia parthenogenetica

    By C. Govindasamy, R. Srinivasan, G. Ganapathy Selvam, K. Ananatharaj, K. Krishnaveni

    Abstract: ABSTRACTPresent study establishes the supply of nutritionally balanced feed and attempt to different food fed with Artemia such as rice bran (RB), algae (Chlorella vulgaris) and RB + algae given for growth of Artemia parthnogenetica. The survival and growth rate of A. parthnogenetica was identified with three types of food and total growth rates were measured. The maximum (7.14 ± 0.16 mm) and minimum (6.24 ± 0.21 mm) growth was …

    Methanogenesis and Methane Flux in Marine Sediment

    By C. Govindasamy, P. Ruban, C. Gunaseelan

    Abstract: ABSTRACTAnoxic environments methanogenesis is the key terminal biochemical process involved in the mineralization of organic matter which is catalyzed by methanogens. The present investigation was carried out to estimate the methanogenesis, methane flux of marine sediments and to study the effect of various parameters over the growth of marine methanogens in Arabian Sea deep sediment samples. The results showed best substrate for the methanogens activity to be formate (30.59 ngmol− …
