✦ Synopsis


The process of community metabolism including primary production and communit-respiration in eighteen undrainable rural fish ponds in India was quantified using the diurnal oxygen curve method. A considerable portion of the gross primary production that was in the moderate ranges, was consumed for the community respiration. Negative, and low positive values of net primary production indicated the significance of the allochthonous supply in these organic enriched systems. The low values of sediment respiration signified the reduced condition of stagnating sediment acting as energy trap.

Benthic studies were undertaken in two mangrove-lagoons on the south coast of Cuba. Both lagoons are approximately 30-50 cm deep and the tidal range is 16-20 cm. There is little influx of fresh water, and the lagoons are normally euhaline. Most of the lagoon bott on1 is not colonized by plants, alth

Studies on community metabolism in newly constructed ponds on a swampy area were made over a period of twenty-four months from November, 1981 to October, 1983. The fluctuations in the gross and net primary productions, photosynthetic efficiency and assimilation efficiency are discussed. The producti
