Out‐of‐phase relationships between convection over northwest India and warm pool region during the winter season - R. K. Yadav; K. Rupa Kumar; M. Rajeevan (International Journal of Climatology, 2009)
In this paper, we investigate the effect of convection over warm pool region of Indonesia on northwest India winter precipitation (NWIWP) using an analysis of latest available observed climate data. The analysis is based on correlations and composites performed using India Meteorological Department (IMD) records of station data. We find that there is an out‐of‐phase relationship between convection over warm pool region and northwest India during the winter season. In particular, a positive precipitation anomaly over northwest India is typically found in correspondence to subdued convection over warm pool region. A physical mechanism for such effect is proposed, by which during excess years of NWIWP the tropical cooling over the warm pool region due to suppressed convection generates an upper‐level convergence (cyclonic circulation) anomaly over south Asia which intensifies the westerly jet stream over Indian region. Also, the reduced convection over the warm pool may be due to reduced Madden‐Julian oscillation (MJO) activities on the intra‐seasonal timescale. The Rossby‐gyre dynamics with the strong vertical and westward meridional tilts in the tropical baroclinic atmosphere forms cyclonic circulation anomalies at the upper troposphere due to a weak MJO which intensifies the westerly jet stream over the Indian region. The jet stream guides the western disturbances (WDs) and hence increases precipitation over northwest India. The seasonal persistence in migration of convective maximum from south Asia (foothills of the Himalayas) to Indonesia during the peak months of boreal summer to winter increases the seasonal predictability of NWIWP.

Pueruli and post‐pueruli, early juveniles and sub‐adults of the spiny lobster, Panulirus homarus and juveniles of P. ornatus were grown in different floating sea cages along the southeast coast of India from May 2003 to May 2007. The first type of cage had a galvanised iron pipe frame (2.0 m × 2.0 m × 1.2 m) with steel woven mesh and four inner detachable compartments (0.75 m × 0.75 m × 1.10 m). Fibre‐reinforced plastic was used subsequently to fabricate cages (1 m × 1 m × 1 m). Pueruli and post‐pueruli of P. homarus (1.58 ± 0.62 g SD), stocked at 60 individuals/m 2 , grew to an average weight of 123.10 ± 26.22 g in 266 days with a survival rate of 70%. Sub‐adults of P. homarus with an average weight (± SD) of 123.61 ± 29.26 g reached 341.25 ± 46.22 g in 225 days at a stocking density of 21 individuals/m 2 with a survival of 73 ± 6%. The post‐pueruli grew by 0.46 ± 0.10 g per day with a specific growth rate (SGR) of 1.64, whereas sub‐adults had a growth rate of 0.97 ± 0.20 g per day with a SGR of 0.43. At a higher stocking density of 80 individuals/m 2 , juveniles (51.83 ± 10.32 g and 58.20 ± 28.22 g) of P. homarus recorded growth rates of 0.86 ± 0.25 (SGR 0.82) and 0.97 ± 0.34 g (SGR 0.96) per day. This study indicates that post‐pueruli of P. homarus can be grown to over 200 g in 12 months and up to 350 g in 16 to 17 months in sea cages. Juveniles (average weight 76.35 ± 34.50 g) of P. ornatus , reared with P. homarus at a stocking density of 80 individuals/m 2 , recorded a weight gain of 139 g in 155 days at arate of 0.89 ± 0.32 g per day with an SGR of 0.67. Marine live clam, Donax spp., was the main feed supplemented with the gastropod, Xancus pyrum , the green mussel, Perna viridis , marine crab (Charibdis sp.), squid (Loligo sp.), and fish such as clupeids and Leognathus sp. Pueruli and post‐pueruli settled in large numbers (up to 35 individuals/month in one cage) both inside and outside the cages.

Development and characterization of cell lines derived from rohu, Labeo rohita (Hamilton), and catla, Catla catla (Hamilton) - V P Ishaq Ahmed; V Chandra; R Sudhakaran; S Rajesh Kumar; M Sarathi; V Sarath Babu; B Ramesh; A S Sahul Hameed (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2009)
Two new cell lines, designated RE and CB, were derived from the eye of rohu, Labeo rohita , and the brain of catla, Catla catla , respectively. The cell lines were maintained in Leibovitz’s L‐15 supplemented with 20% foetal bovine serum. The RE cell line was sub‐cultured for more than 70 passages and the CB cell line for more than 35 passages. The RE cells are rounded and consist predominantly of epithelial cells. The CB cell line consists of predominantly fibroblastic‐like cells. Both cell lines are able to grow at temperatures between 25 and 32 °C with an optimum of 28 °C. The growth rate of the cells increased as the foetal bovine serum concentration increased from 2% to 20% at 28 °C, with optimum growth at concentrations of 15% or 20% foetal bovine serum. The cells were successfully cryopreserved and revived at different passage levels. The cell lines were not susceptible to four marine fish viruses. Extracellular products from Aeromonas sp . were toxic to the cell lines. When the cells were transfected with plasmid eukaryotic green fluorescent protein (pEGFP [Clontech, Carlsbad, CA, USA]) vector DNA, a significant fluorescent signal was observed suggesting that these cell lines could be a useful tool for transgenic and genetic manipulation studies. Polymerase chain reaction amplification of mitochondrial 12S rRNA from rohu and catla confirmed that the cell lines originated from these fish species. The cell lines were further characterized by immunocytochemistry using confocal laser scanning microscopy.

Microbial levan in the diet of Labeo rohita Hamilton juveniles: effect on non‐specific immunity and histopathological changes after challenge with Aeromonas hydrophila - S K Gupta; A K Pal; N P Sahu; R Dalvi; V Kumar; S C Mukherjee (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2008)
A 60‐day feeding trial was conducted to study the immuno‐protective effect of microbial levan on Labeo rohita juveniles challenged with Aeromonas hydrophila. Six purified diets were prepared with different levels of microbial levan: control (no levan), T1 (Basal + 0.25%), T2 (Basal + 0.50%), T3 (Basal + 0.75%), T4 (Basal + 1%) and T5 (Basal + 1.25%), fed to six groups of fish in triplicate. Among the treatment groups the haemoglobin content and total leucocyte count were increased with a dietary supplementation of levan at 1% or more. An increasing trend for total erythrocyte count was observed with increasing level of dietary levan. Lower levan‐supplemented groups showed a higher albumin/globulin ratio. As the levan supplementation was increased, there was a gradual increase in serum lysozyme activity and respiratory burst activity [nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) assay] reduction values. The highest lysozyme activity and NBT were observed in the T5 group although this was similar to the T4 group ( P > 0.05). No significant histo‐architectural changes were associated with dietary levan levels. After challenge with A. hydrophila , moderately degenerated hepatocytes, oedema and leucocytic infiltration in parenchymatous tissues, and extensive haemorrhage and haemosiderosis in the kidney were observed in the control group. However, the T5 group supplemented with 1.25% levan showed infiltrating leucocytes in the liver while the kidney showed only moderate degeneration of renal tubules. The relative survival per cent of juveniles after challenge with A. hydrophila was the highest in the T5 group followed by T4. This suggests that microbial levan at 1.25% can be used as dietary immunostimulant for L. rohita juveniles.

Cloud‐radiative impacts on the tropical Indian Ocean associated with the evolution of ‘monsoon breaks’ - Basanta Kumar Samala; R. Krishnan (International Journal of Climatology, 2008)
A detailed diagnostic analysis of a suite of observed datasets was carried out with a view to understand the importance of cloud‐radiative effects on the evolution of prolonged ‘monsoon breaks’ over the Indian region. The study particularly focuses on the role of clouds in affecting the sub‐seasonal/intra‐seasonal variability of sea surface temperature (SST) and atmospheric convection in the equatorial and south‐eastern tropical Indian Ocean (SETIO) during monsoon‐break transitions. A characteristic feature of the monsoon‐break evolution is the appearance of suppressed convection over the SETIO region nearly 7–10 days prior to the commencement of a break spell over India. It is seen from the present analysis that the lack of cloud cover over the SETIO during the ‘pre‐break’ phase leads to significant warming of the tropical Indian Ocean due to strong solar insolation at the surface. During the ‘pre‐break’ phase, the net cloud‐radiative forcing (NETCRF) at the surface is found to be typically around − 30 Wm −2 and the mean SST in the SETIO is about 29.3 °C. Following the transition to a monsoon‐break phase, the cloud amount increases by about 25% over the SETIO region in association with intensified convection. The NETCRF at the surface over the SETIO averaged during the ‘break’ phase is found to be about − 60 Wm −2 (i.e. a change of about − 30 Wm −2 from the ‘pre‐break’ phase). Consistent with the above change in the NETCRF, the SST in the SETIO shows a cooling of about 0.7 °C, although the mean SSTs during the ‘break’ phase remain as high as 28.6 °C. On the basis of the findings from this study, it is suggested that the SST warming during the ‘pre‐break’ phase plays a key role in maintaining high SST and allows sustained convection to occur over the SETIO during prolonged monsoon breaks.

A pair of subadult Panulirus ornatus was reared in the laboratory from July 2001. The female grew from 0.6 to 1.3 kg and the male from 0.5 to 1.6 kg in 2 years before the first mating in July 2003. In 6 months, from July to December 2003, the pair mated and spawned 3 times, producing 1.6 million eggs and 1.1 million phyllosoma larvae. Mating occurred 25 and 63 days after moulting. The female spawned 2–3 days after mating and the incubation time ranged from 23 to 27 days. The phyllosoma larvae were released over 2 successive days. The growth rate reduced after first mating in both the male and female and the female expended 42% of the total weight gain for egg production.
