FISH PARASITES OF QATARI WATERS OF THE ARABIAN GULF: CURRENT STATUS WITH AN ANNOTATED CHECKLIST
(
International Journal of Recent Scientific Research
, 2016 , Article)
The present study is a recent attempt to survey all the parasitological investigations of the marine
fish inhabiting Qatari waters. These investigations were first embarked upon in the eighteenth
century with the first ...
Exploring Sheraoh Island at South-Eastern Qatar: First Distributional Records of Some Inland and Offshore Biota with Annotated Checklist
(
OMICS International
, 2016 , Article)
Sheraoh island is the most remote among Qatari islands, nearly 73.5 km south-eastern of the mainland of the
peninsula. In March 2010, a preliminary general survey of the species was conducted. Observations were made ...
Potential of novel desert microalgae and cyanobacteria for commercial applications and CO2 sequestration
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2019 , Article)
CO2 fixation by phototrophic microalgae and cyanobacteria is seen as a possible global carbon emissions reducer; however, novel microalgae and cyanobacterial strains with tolerance to elevated temperatures and CO2 ...
