“…Along the east coast, diatom blooms were reported to prevail. The Centre for Marine Living Resources and Ecology (CMLRE) worked on algal blooms formation, their spread and ecological consequences on marine ecosystems (Padmakumar et al, 2012) and documented the records of 80 algal blooms (of which 27 were by Cyanobacteria) in the Indian EEZ during 1998-2010, A compre hensive overview of historical harmful algal blooms in the AS, their causes and impact, and seasonal variability was presented by Al Shehhi et al (2014), Blooms mostly occurred during withdrawal of south-west monsoon and/or in pre-monsoon period (D'Silva et al, 2012;Raghukumar and Anil, 2003;Patil and Anil. 2008), Enhanced phytoplankton growth and blooms usually occur just after the south-west to north-east monsoon transition in the BOB (Prasarmakumar et al, 2007).…”

“…However, among 22 potential toxin producing species, 14 are reported to be toxic during bloom conditions (Perumal et al 1999;Carmichael et al 1988;D'Silva et al 2012;Kiteresi et al 2013;Pednekar et al 2014). In type 1, 43 number of potential bloom forming species were observed.…”

A comprehensive analysis on seasonal distribution of phytoplankton community structure and their interaction with environmental variables was carried out in two local water types (type 1 < 30 m isobath and Type 2 > 30 m isobath) at a coastal site in north-western Bay of Bengal. Phytoplankton community was represented by 211 taxa (146 marine, 37 fresh, 2 brackish, 20 marine-fresh, and 6 marine-brackish-fresh) belonging to seven major groups including 45 potential bloom forming and 22 potential toxin producing species. The seasonal variability depicted enrichment of phytoplankton during pre-monsoon in both water types. Total phytoplankton abundance pattern observed with inter-annual shift during monsoon and post-monsoon period at both water types. In both water types, diatom predominance was observed in terms of species richness and abundance comprising of centric (82 sp.) and pennate (58 sp.) forms. Pennate diatoms, Thalassiothrix longissima and Skeletonema costatum preponderated in both the water types. The diatom abundance was higher in type 1 in comparison to type 2. In general, SiO4 found to fuel growth of the dominant phytoplankton group, diatom in both the water types despite comparative lower concentration of other macronutrients in type 2.
