Overall phytoplankton was comprised of Bacillariophyceae (81.4%), Dinophyceae (12%), Chrysophyceae (3%), Cyanophyceae (1.8%), Desmophyceae (2.9%) and Chlorophyceae (3.9%). A total of 86 species of phytoplankton belonging to 56 genera and 6 classes were recorded from offshore and inshore stations. A massive bloom of cyanobacteria Trichodesmium erythraeum was also sighted during the winter season. Dinoflagellates showed a peak during monsoon at inshore stations. Maximum values of diversity indices were recorded during winter at offshore and during pre-monsoon at inshore stations.

Potential of Wave Energy Power Plants Along Maharashtra Coast
POTENTIAL OF WAVE ENERGY POWER PLANTS ALONG MAHARASHTRA COAST SUDHIR KUMAR Maharashtra Energy Development Agency 191-A, MHADA Commercial Complex, Yerawada, PUNE - 411 006, INDIA. Tel.No. :020-683633/4, Fax : 683631 E-Mail : [email protected] Website : http://www.mahaurja.com ABSTRACT Sea waves are the result of transfer of mechanical energy of wind to wave energy. The wave quality varies for different periods and seasons. It is possible to have a realistic formula to calculate the overall wave energy potential. A general study of the wave nature has shown that there is potential of 40,000 MW along the Indian Coast. Similar study along the coast of Maharashtra State has shown that there are some potential sites such as Vengurla rocks, Malvan rocks, Redi, Pawas, Ratnagiri and Girye which have the average annual wave energy potential of 5 to 8 kW/m and monsoon potential of 15 to 20 kW/m. Considering this, the total potential along the 720 KM stretch of Maharashtra Coast is approximately 500 MW for wave energy power plants. Fortunately, after the decades of research and development activities all over the world, now some technologies are available commercially. Taking advantage of the situation, we need to exploit the possibility of the wave energy power plants at the identified sites by inviting the proposals from private investors / promoters / technology providers from all over the world. Approximately, they attract the private investment to the tune of Rs. 3000 crores. The Govt. of Maharashtra and Govt. of India, plans to announce the policies to attract private investors in this field on BOO (build own operate) basis. -

Also, the incidence of other pests like mealy bug, midge and scale is increasing. However, Scientist, Extension Education, their exact status in the South Konkan region is not known. Therefore, a fixed plot survey was conducted Regional Fruit Research Station, to know the status of important pests of mango in the South Konkan region of Maharashtra during the Vengurle, Sindhudurg, vegetative flush and flowering period of 2015-16 and 2016-17. Ten mango trees were selected at five Maharashtra, India different locations of the South Konkan region for recording observations which were kept unsprayed. The observations on the intensity of important pests was recorded once in a month from October to KV Malshe February. The results revealed that during vegetative flush and flowering period, there were seven Jr. Horticulturist, Mango important foliage pests viz., mango hopper, thrips, midge, shoot borer, leaf miner, mealy bug and scale. Regional Sub Centre, Girye Mango hopper and thrips were observed as the major pests, whereas, leaf miner, shoot borer, mealy bug, Devgad, Sindhudurg, midge and scale insect were observed as the minor pests of mango in the South Konkan region of Maharashtra, India Maharashtra. -
A Report Onecological Status of the Proposed
INTRODUCTION The attempt to conserve coastal and marine biodiversity (establishment of the MMS), which aimed primarily at the conservation of marine and coastal resources, is also found to be inadequate in view of the management challenges of the region. Despite its existence over two decades, it is yet to evolve a congenial environment for the effective management of the Marine Protected Area in the absence of baseline information on the faunal resources of the area. In order to improve the conservation prospects of the unique flora and fauna along the coast especially that of the Marine Sanctuary, long term solutions need to be anchored in several key areas: establishing a robust database on the biodiversity profile of the region as a foundation for informed decision making. Malvan is one of the biologically richest coastal regions in Maharashtra on the west coast of India. Due to its high ecological importance, an area of 29.12 km2 of Malvan coastal waters was designated as the Malvan Marine Sanctuary (MMS) in 1987, under the National Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972, with subsequent notifications in the following years. With a core zone of 3.182 km² and buffer zone of 25.94 km² (total area being 29.122 km²) includes the Sindhudurg fort, Padamged island and other submerged rocky structures. The north eastern border of the buffer zone is 50 m from the seashore near Malvan port, while on the east it is a semi-circular sandy beach 500 m parallel to the shore of Malvan, in the south it is near Mandel rock, and in the west touches the Malvan rock.
