Dennison b, M. Waycott c a Department of Natural Resources, University of New Hampshire, Jackson Estuarine Laboratory, Durham, NH 03824, USA b Integration and Application Network, University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science, Cambridge, MD 21613, USA c School of Marine and Tropical Biology, James Cook University, Townsville, 4811 Queensland, Australia Received 1 February 2007; received in revised form 31 May 2007; accepted 4 June 2007 Abstract Seagrasses, marine flowering plants, are widely distributed along temperate and tropical coastlines of the world. Seagrasses have key ecological roles in coastal ecosystems and can form extensive meadows supporting high biodiversity. The global species diversity of seagrasses is low (b60 species), but species can have ranges that extend for thousands of kilometers of coastline. Seagrass bioregions are defined here, based on species assemblages, species distributional ranges, and tropical and temperate influences. Six global bioregions are presented: four temperate and two tropical. The temperate bioregions include the Temperate North Atlantic, the Temperate North Pacific, the Mediterranean, and the Temperate Southern Oceans. The Temperate North Atlantic has low seagrass diversity, the major species being Zostera marina, typically occurring in estuaries and lagoons. The Temperate North Pacific has high seagrass diversity with Zostera spp. in estuaries and lagoons as well as Phyllospadix spp. in the surf zone. The Mediterranean region has clear water with vast meadows of moderate diversity of both temperate and tropical seagrasses, dominated by deep-growing Posidonia oceanica. -

Reassessment of Seagrass Species in the Marshall Islands1
Micronesica 2016-04: 1–10 Reassessment of Seagrass Species in the Marshall Islands 1 ROY T. TSUDA Department of Natural Sciences, Bishop Museum, 1525 Bernice Street, Honolulu, HI 96817, USA [email protected] NADIERA SUKHRAJ U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Pacific Islands Fish and Wildlife Office, 300 Ala Moana Blvd., Honolulu, HI 96850, USA [email protected] Abstract—Recent collections of specimens of Halophila gaudichaudii J. Kuo, previously identified as Halophila minor (Zollinger) den Hartog, from Kwajalein Atoll in September 2016 and the archiving of the specimens at BISH validate the previous observation of this seagrass genus in the Marshall Islands. Previously, no voucher specimen was available for examination. Molecular analyses of the Kwajalein Halophila specimens may demonstrate conspecificity with Halophila nipponica J. Kuo with H. gaudichaudii relegated as a synonym. Herbarium specimens of Cymodocea rotundata Ehrenberg and Hemprich ex Ascherson from Majuro Atoll were found at BISH and may represent the only specimens from the Marshall Islands archived in a herbarium. Cymodocea rotundata, however, has been documented in past literature and archived via digital photos in its natural habitat in Majuro. The previous validation of Thalassia hemprichii (Ehrenberg) Ascherson with specimens, and the recent validation of Halophila gaudichaudii and Cymodocea rotundata with specimens reaffirm the low coral atolls and islands of the Marshall Islands as the eastern limit for the three species in the Pacific Ocean. Introduction In a review of the seagrasses in Micronesia, Tsuda et al. (1977) reported nine species of seagrasses in Micronesia with new records of Thalassodendron ciliatum (Forsskål) den Hartog from Palau, and Syringodium isoetifolium (Ascherson) Dandy and Cymodocea serrulata (R. -

Water samples were analysed for physico-chemical parameters including pH, turbidity, electrical conductivity,total hardness, dissolved oxygen , BOD and anions were analysed like Ca, Mg, Fe, free ammonia, NO3-, SO42-, PO42-, F- and Cl- during the different seasons of monsoon period from August - January (2011-2012).The concentrations of most of the investigated parameters in the water sample from Manakudy(Station1), Rajakamangalam(Station2), Kadiyapattanam (Station 3), Thengapattanam (Station 4) estauries in Kanyakumari district were exceeded the permissible limit of WHO, CPHEEO water quality guidelines. Keywords: Estauary, Nitrate, Dissolved Oxygen, WHO, CPHEEO. —————————— —————————— Introduction Rivers are the main inland water resources for domestic, industrial and irrigation purposes and often carry large municipal sewage, industrial waste water discharges and seasonal runoff from agricultural land to the coastal region. It is for this reason that the river water is mostly enriched in nutrients compared to other environments. The four major rivers that flow in Kanyakumari district are, Thambaraparani, Valliyar,IJSER Pazhayar and Paraliyar. Thambaraparani river confluences with Arabian sea near Thangaipattanam estuary about 56 km, west of Kanyakumari District. -

It was called by different name in different period, it is popular being Venad, Vanchidesam and Tiruadidesam. Venad is originally known as Vanavanad which Merans the abode of the Dedvas. This was later simplified into Venad. Vanchi Desam means either the land of treasure or the land Baboons. In Malayalam the name of Travancore was interpreted by ‘Thiruvithamkure’ and in Sankrit ‘Srivardhanapuri’. KEY WORDS: Colachel, Battle of Colachel, Marthanda Varma, The Dutch, De Lannoy, Trade relations, The Dutch East India Company. INTRODUCTION Marthanda Varma inherited the throne of Travancore formerly known as Venad,from King Ramavarma, his uncle. During the period of Marthanda Varma the war held in Colachel is significance than the others. This war raises the war power of the king. In 1740, the Dutch Governor says to Marthanda Varma,that he was going to capture Travancore to his control. It internal idea is that Dutch are thinking to make colony in Travancore. In the beginning,and the war came to end of August 7,1741. The war was the important turning point of Marthanda Varma and Travancore State. NEED FOR THE PRESENT STUDY Colachal is sea port town from the ancient past, served as an important commercial centre for the Cheras, Pandyas and even the Dutch. It is surrounded by small villege lioke Kottilpadu, on the south, Puthutheru on the east, Velliyakulam on the North and Kalimar on the West. -

Begila David 2* 1Department of Chemistry, Womens’ Christian College, Nagercoil – 629 001. India. 2PG and Research Centre in Chemistry, Scott Christian College (Autonomous), Nagercoil – 629 003. India. *Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The present work was focused on the spatial and temporal variations of the coastal water quality from six shores along southwest coastline in Arabian sea in Kanyakumari District,Tamilnadu, India. The surface temperature was found varied from 21.2°C to 28.1°C, pH was varied from 7.66 to 8.9, conductivity, TDS, DO, CO 2, Alkalinity and nitrate remains almost same in all places in a particular season. Turbidity was ranged between 2 NTU to 11 NTU and maximum in Kanyakumari in all seasons. The observed DO was above 5 mg/l. Minimum BOD was observed in the present study. Carbon dioxide was found varied from 8 ppm to 25 ppm. Total alkalinity values lie within the maximum permissible limit. Both gross alpha and gross beta count were maximum in Muttom coastal water. Nutrient nitrate varied from 2 g/l to 4 g/l. Phosphate was much higher in Muttom in summer season. Sulphate was higher in Kanyakumari and Thengapattanam coast which indicates anthropogenically affected water quality. Keywords : Coastal water; Alkalinity; Turbidity; Spatial and temporal variation. Besides the natural changes which bring Introduction about variation in physical and chemical Water is one of the most important and parameters of water, human interventions also abundant compounds of the ecosystem.
