Complete mitochondrial genome of the Spadenose shark Scoliodon laticaudus (Carcharhiniformes: Carcharhinidae)
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
The complete mitochondrial genome of the Spadenose shark Scoliodon laticaudus has been determined for the first time in this study. It was 16,695bp in length and consisted of 37 genes with typical gene order in vertebrate ...
Archaeology of lighthouses along the Indian coast with reference to a lighthouse at Kodinar, Gujarat
(Indian Archaeological Society, 2011)
A lighthouse is an important aid for navigation and they are in use for the past 2500 years The archaeological remains of light houses are meagre in India and the earliest remains are not dated earlier than the medieval ...
Remediation techniques for heavy-metals contamination in lakes: A Mini-Review
(Wiley, 2015)
Heavy-metals contamination in lakes has a negative impact on lake ecosystems This review provides an insight into possible heavy-metals remediation techniques for lake environments using different techniques, for example, ...
Submarine groundwater discharge and nutrient addition to the coastal zone of the Godavari estuary
(Elsevier, 2015)
Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) represents a significant pathway of materials between land and sea, especially as it supplies nutrients, carbon and trace metals to coastal waters. To estimate SGD fluxes to the Godavari ...
Psychrotrophic metal tolerant bacteria for mobilisation of metals in Antarctic waters
(LIGHTS Research Foundation, 2012)
Cold tolerant psychrotrophic bacteria abound in the Antarctic waters. While Antarctic krills are known to concentrate heavy metals at ppm levels, psychrotrophic bacteria from Antarctic fresh and marine waters have been ...
Maritime archaeology of Lakshadweep Islands, India
(Indian Archaeological Society, 2012)
Lakshadweep Islands lie on the sea route between South Asia, Far East and African countries Boats and ships used the islands of Lakshadweep as a stopover to take on fresh water The Islands of Lakshadweep played a significant ...

Effects of freshwater stratification on nutrients, dissolved oxygen, and phytoplankton in the Bay of Bengal
(The Oceanography Society, 2016)
The Bay of Bengal (BoB) is strongly density stratified due to large freshwater input from various rivers and heavy precipitation. This strong vertical stratification, along with physical processes, regulates the transport ...
Seasonal nutrient chemistry in mountainous river systems of tropical Western Peninsular India
(Taylor and Francis, 2015)
Nutrient chemistry was studied in three mountainous rivers (Mandovi, Zuari and Netravati), across western peninsular India (WPI) during south-west monsoon (SWM), post-monsoon and pre-monsoon seasons of year 2011-2012. ...
Mesoscale simulation of tropical cyclones in the South Pacific: Climatology and interannual variability
(American Meteorological Society, 2011)
The Weather Research and Forecast model at 1/3 degree resolution is used to simulate the statistics of tropical cyclone (TC) activity in the present climate of the South Pacific. In addition to the large-scale conditions, ...
