Productividad primaria de cianobacterias cocoides aisladas de un ambiente lagunar costero al sur del Golfo de CaliforniaRESUMEN. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la productividad primaria de cianobacterias cultivadas bajo diferentes fuentes nitrogenadas. Se consideraron 3 tratamientos: 1) sin fuente nitrogenada, 2) con nitrato (NO3), y 3) con amonio (NH4). Se realizaron incubaciones bajo condiciones controladas. Las densidades celulares fueron significativamente mayores en el tratamiento con nitratos. Los máximos de biovolumen (19.9 µm-3) y de contenido de carbono (5.4 pg C cel-1) se observaron en la fase estacionaria del tratamiento con amonio. La mayor concentración de clorofila a en la fase exponencial se registró en el tratamiento sin nitrógeno (1.038 mg m-3), mientras que el máximo en la fase estacionaria en el tratamiento con nitratos (0.65 mg m-3). La mayor producción primaria se registró en la fase exponencial (23.9 mg C m-3 h-1), asociada al tratamiento sin fuente nitrogenada incubado a 150 µ E m-2 s-1; en la fase estacionaria el máximo (11.6 mg C m-3 h-1) se registró en el tratamiento enriquecido con nitratos a 75 µ E m-2 s-1.

Abstract In this article, hydrographic processes of a tropical coastal lagoon is studied that control inherent biological mechanisms of the lagoon environment. Realizing the interest of environmentalists over physio-chemical studies of a wetland tropical wetland system on the western boundary of the Bay of Bengal, a high-resolution intensive vertical hydrographic field campaign was carried during monsoon to uncover peculiarity in vertical hydrographic processes that was long-awaited to address many environmental issues. Vertical hydrographic profiles on spatio-temporal scale were made at nine stations in a zonal direction of the Chilika lagoon system. Results of vertical variability of salinity showed the presence of higher saline water over less saline water in the central-western region. The higher and lower water temperature in the western and eastern parts of the lagoon, respectively, indicated temperature dipole between the two regions. The encapsulation of water mass having higher temperature by the water of lower temperature at the central region resulted evolution of thermal inversion. The highest dissolved oxygen concentration was observed in the sub-surface layers of the western part of the lagoon. However, a layer of near-hypoxia occurred below 1.5 m depth in the central region. This study proposes comprehensive inter-seasonal studies to address the vertical variability of biogeochemical parameters and the fate of organic flux.

The present study undertaken in the largest coastal lagoon of Asia, Chilika, deals with monthly monitoring of benthic foraminifera assemblages in terms of distribution pattern, diversity and variations in taxonomic composition spanning over a period of 20 months. In total, 13 species of benthic foraminifera represented by eight families were identified in the lagoon. The stations in the Southern sector of the lagoon showed relatively low foraminifera abundance yet high diversity whereas higher abundance and lower diversity were observed in stations located in the Central sector which indicates the spatial patterning of the assemblage. Live foraminifera abundance was sparse in the study area indicating the stressed nature of the lagoon environment. The dissolved nutrient concentration of bottom water reflected significant seasonal variation. The stressed nature of the lagoon is further indicated by the dominance of the genus Ammonia across the inner sectors of the lagoon, a genus known to inhabit impacted habitats. Overall these data can serve as a baseline proxy for understanding palaeontological assemblages of foraminifera in similar shallow-water settings globally.
