Crustacean fishery resources of India- Winter School on Towards Ecosystem Based Management of Marine Fisheries – Building Mass Balance Trophic and Simulation Models
Crustaceans comprising numerous edible species of prawns, lobsters and crabs
inhabiting different ecosystems form significant portion of the aquatic food resources of the
world. The average annual production of edible marine crustaceans of India during 1995-
2001 was 0.36 million tonnes. Due to ever increasing demand for edible marine crustaceans
from foreign markets, there has been heavy exploitation of these resources in an
unprecedented scale from the Indian seas. Enhancement of fishing effort in deeper
grounds, modernization of craft and gears and intensive fishing has resulted in enormous
fishing pressure on these resources
Hydrographic features off northeast coast and Andaman - Nicobar Islands in relation to demersal finfish resources
Temperature varied from 17.6 to 28.5°C, salinity values from 32.12 to 35.21 x
10"" and dissolved oxygen from 0.8 to 4.41 ml/1. No identifiable relationship could
be established between these three parameters and the total fish abundance, probably
because the catch was made up of many species having different requirements.
Higher abundance of trawl catches was from January to May when bottom water
temperature was relatively low. The highest level of abundance of 2764 kg/hr in
February 1989 was recorded when the parameters were 26°C, 33.6 x 10" and 2.71
ml/1; and the lowest level of 43.2 kg/hr in July 1988 was when the parameters were
25.3°C, 34.48 x 10'^ and 1.6 ml/1
Salinity changes in the estuary and the coastal sea adjacent to the portmouth at Cochin
The article deals with the details of salinity changes in the Cochin estuary and its influence and interrelations with the Vembanad lake
Consultancy services in marine fisheries- A profile of technologies and experts
The ICAR system currently needs very effective
partnership between the researchers and the
user groups. The Central Marine Fisheries
Research Institute, a premier Institute under the ICAR,
has taken effective steps to introduce the services and
technologies in the marine fisheries sector, achieved
over the last 50 years R & D activities. With a viev/
to institutionalising transfer of technologies, the institute
has constituted a Consultancy Processing Cell (CPC) in
1997 for effectively serving the needs of our clients,
through the short term and long term trainings,
consultancies, contract services and contract research
Critical marine habitat restoration programme - initiative on mangrove restoration in Kerala, India
Mangroves are unique habitats which function
as nursery ground for several valuable species of
finfishes and shellfishes and they play a vital role in
supporting marine food chains, protecting coastal
areas and in improving water quality. Mangroves in
general have relatively high productivity and tend to
create highly organic soil and also export organic
matter to nearby marine environments. They are
effective in stabilizing soils in intertidal areas. Some
species of mangroves have been planted in the
coastal areas as bio-protection shields to guard
coastal households from wind and wave action. They
provide shelter to several avian fauna which feed on
its fruits and nest in the branches. Rare or
endangered species of birds have also been
documented in the mangroves
