Analysis of chlorophyll pigment concentration in the northern Arabian Sea using remote sensing and GIS
(2007)
The phytoplankton in the ocean plays an important role not only because it produces food that sustains the marine life, but also it is capable of regulating CO2 and there by influencing the climate of the earth system. It ...
Effects of DNP on the cell surface properties of marine bacteria and its implication for adhesion to surfaces
(Taylor & Francis, 2007)
The effect of 2, 4-dinitrophenol (DNP) on extracelluar polysaccharides (EPS), cell surface charge, and hydrophobicity of six marine bacterial cultures was studied, and its influence on attachment of these bacteria to glass ...
Characterization of opaques off Konkan Coast Maharashtra, central west coast of India
(Michigan Technological University, 2007)
Characterisation of opaques, comprising of ilmenites and magnetites, separated from the sediment samples off Konkan coast, has been attempted. On the basis of dominance of intergrowth of the exsolved or replaced phases, ...
Tsunamis and marine life
(Taylor and Francis, 2007)
The 26 December 2004 tsunami in the Indian Ocean exerted far reaching temporal and spatial impacts on marine biota. Our synthesis was based on satellite data acquired by the Laboratory for Tropical Marine Environmental ...
Response and adaptability of mangrove habitats from the Indian subcontinent to changing climate
(Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, 2007)
Mangroves, a predominant coastal habitat in the tropics, are constantly threatened by various anthropogenic pressures that are deteriorating the mangroves to a great extent. Global emissions of greenhouse gases are likely ...
Importance of environmental impact assessment and monitoring studies in industrial development
(New India Publication Agency, 2007)
Environmental assessment is taken up in this exercise as a rapid assessment technique for determining the current status of the environment and identifying impact of critical activities on environmental parameters. EIA is ...
The west Andaman fault and its influence on the aftershock pattern of the recent megathrust earthquakes in the Andaman-Sumatra region
(American Geophysical Union, 2007)
Distinctly different rupture patterns of December 2004 and March 2005 megathrust earthquakes occurred in the Andaman-Sumatra region suggest strong influence of tectonic and structural elements. We have analysed the shipboard ...
Vertical propagation of baroclinic Kelvin waves along the west coast of India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2007)
A linear, continuously stratified ocean model is used to investigate vertical propagation of remotely forced, baroclinic Kelvin waves along the Indian west coast. The extent of vertical propagation over the length of the ...
Seismic reflection and refraction methods
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2007)
Benthic macrofauna
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2007)
The variability of macrofaunal assemblage in the Mandovi–Zuari, Goa, India estuarine complex was studied during 2002-2003 and compared with earlier data of the same area. Sediment samples in duplicate were collected from ...
