    Taxonomy-Marine Prawns of India

    No full text
    The penaeoid prawns (Superfamily Penaeoidea) constitute a diverse group of marine decapods with over 400 species (Ma et al., 2009). Globally distributed, and inhabiting both shallow and abyssal zones below 5000 m, they occupy different trophic levels of the food chain at various depths in the ocean (Pérez Farfante and Kensley 1997). This group includes most of the prawns of high economic value that account for one-third of the annual wild crustacean catc

    Non penaeid prawns constitute one of the important fishery resources contributing to 5.8% of total marine fish production. The resource is characteristic of the northwest and northeast coast, which accounts for 90% of the total non-penaeid prawn production in the country. In Maharashtra and Gujarat, the non-penaeids account for 10.8% and 12.6% of the total marine fish landings

    The suborder Dendrobranchiata constitute a diverse group of marine decapods with over 533 species under 68 genera ( De Grave and Fransen, 2011). Globally distributed, and inhabiting both shallow waters and abyssal zones below 5000 m, they occupy different trophic levels of the food chain at various water depths in the ocean (Pérez Farfante and Kensley, 1997). This group includes most of the prawns of high economic value that account for over one-third of the annual wild crustacean catch (FAO, 2009)

    Sustainable exploitation and conservation of lobster resources in India a participatory approach

    Lobsters are one of the most valuable and highly priced crustaceans and an important export commodity of lndia. Though widely distributed along the entire coast, major fishery is located on the northwest, the southwest and the southeast coasts. Although nine species of spiny lobsters (Palinuridae) have been reported from the Indian coast (Radhakrishnan, 1993, only three littoral and one deep sea form are commercially important. Among the six species reported from the northwest region (Chhapgar and Deshmukh, 1971), two species, the palinurid spiny lobster Panulirus polyphagus (Herbst) and the scyllarid Thenus orientalis (Lund) predominated the fishery

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    The priority for ideas and philosophy related to "Network Theory" have been traced back and documented by Braun(2004),and credit goes to Karinthy(1929).The IT has empowered to realise it, as the most practical phenomena and it is no more a humour. The OAI (Open Archives Initiatives)and ACIS (Academic Contributor Information System)are progressive in the direction ,which may lead to realise the "Collective Genius" at global level. Focus of present study is on Author-Self-Archiving (A-S-A)Metadata of the 983 Eprints in the Live Archives of the E-LIS (EPrints of Library and Information Science),which were approved till 7th July 2004.The A-S-A Metadata was used for librametric analysis. Self-explanatory bibliographics are illustrated.The highlights include: Conference papers (34%); highest approval, June 2004 (28%); published archives (76%);not refereed (52%); not in public domain (60%); highest self-archiving-author (De Robbio, Antonella).The Nos. of EPrints having single JITA domain specifications were: Theoretical and general aspects of libraries and information(27); Information use and sociology of information(80);Users,literacy and reading(13);Libraries as physical collections(30);Publishing and legal issues(57);Management(13);Industry, profession and education(36);Information sources, supports, channels(113) ; Information treatment for information services, Information functions and techniques (101); Technical services libraries, archives and museums(25); Housing technologies(1); Information technology and library technology(92); and Inter-domainery (395) i.e. having specifications of two or more than two JITA classes
