Behavioural Ecology, Biogeography and Evolution of Telescopium telescopium (Linnaeus, 1758) from Chandipur-on-Sea, Odisha, India
Abstract: AbstractStudy based on ecology, biogeography and geological history of the species Telescopium telescopium (Linnaeus 1758) from Chandipur-on-Sea is the main stay of the present work. The genus though appeared in Late Miocene is monotypic and at present restricted to Indo-West Pacific. The behaviour of the species was observed in different seasons throughout a span of 12 months and size frequency distribution was taken into consideration. Several early postulates regarding the …

Biodiesel Production and Performance, Emission Technique: a Review
Abstract: AbstractBiodiesel, a non-regular, less expensive and boundless wellspring of energy can be a decent substitute for diesel fuel. Biodiesel as an elective fuel is being viewed as economical energy source and would move towards becoming as critical as oil-based commodities of the present time. The nonconventional fuel is produced using diverse feedstock relying upon their accessibility. In the present investigation we have studied the performance as well as emission of …

Microbiological Characteristics of Water and Seafood (Oyster Tissue) from Trans-Amadiwoji Creek, Port Harcourt, Nigeria
Abstract: AbstractTrans-Amadi/Woji creek receives heavy influx of organic and inorganic matter from the surroundings which are all products of anthropogenic activities going on in the area. Assessment of microbes in water and oyster (crassotrea gasar) tissue from Trans-Amadi/Woji creek, Niger Delta were carried out for 6 months between January and June 2017. The microbial samples were collected and analyzed in the laboratory following the standard method of APHA. The total heterotrophic …

Assessment of Seasonal and Spatial Variation in Water Quality of Estuarine and Riverine Zones of Tapi River Gujarat, India
Abstract: AbstractThe present study was conducted to assess the seasonal and spatial variations at eight estuarine and riverine locations of Tapi River, which is one of the major rivers of Gujarat, India. The monitoring of water quality for these locations was carried out on seasonal basis in pre-monsoon and post-monsoon seasons from March 2017 to February 2018. A total of nine physicochemical parameters were analyzed including pH, water temperature, turbidity, electrical …
