Iron released from ilmenite mineral sustains a phytoplankton community in microcosms
(Walter de Gruyter, 2011)
Natural biotic communities from Kalbadevi Bay were monitored in microcosms (1-l glass flasks) to test the hypothesis that iron released from ilmenite through microbial action contributes to proliferation of phytoplankton. ...
Influence of river influx on phytoplankton community during fall inter–monsoon in the coastal waters off Kakinada, east coast of India
(NISCAIR (CSIR), 2011)
Significant changes in phytoplankton community structure were observed in the coastal waters off Kakinada, India during fall inter-monsoon of 2006 and 2007. River influx was more in October 2007 compared to those in October ...
Nitrogen uptake in the northeastern Arabian Sea during winter cooling
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)
The uptake of dissolved inorganic nitrogen by phytoplankton is an important aspect of the nitrogen cycle of oceans. Nitrate (NO sub(3) sup(-) and ammonium (NH sub(4) sup(+) uptake rates in the northeastern Arabian Sea using ...
Dynamics of auto- and heterotrophic picoplankton and associated viruses in Lake Geneva.
(European Geosciences Union, 2014)
Microbial dynamics have rarely been investigated in Lake Geneva, known as the largest lake in western Europe. From a 5-month survey, we report dynamic patterns of free-living virus, bacteria and small phytoplankton abundances ...
Effect of freshwater influx on phytoplankton in the Mandovi estuary (Goa, India) during monsoon season: Chemotaxonomy
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013)
The Mandovi estuary is a prominent water body that runs along the west coast of India. It forms an estuarine network with the adjacent Zuari estuary, connected via the Cumbharjua canal. The physico-chemical conditions seen ...
Microbial community response during the iron fertilization experiment LOHAFEX
(American Society for Microbiology, 2012)
Iron fertilization experiments in high nutrient-low chlorophyll areas are known to induce phytoplankton blooms. However, little is known about the response of the microbial community upon iron fertilization. As part of the ...
Phytoplankton, Bacteria and Heterotrophic Nanoflagellate studies using ship and OCM-2 data along a coastal transect in the Arabian Sea
(Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS), 2012)
The coastal region of the central West coast of India is biologically productive and well known for its Mackerel and Sardine fishery. December is an active fishing month and fall in the post-monsoon period when coastal ...
Locating Noctiluca miliaris in the Arabian Sea: An optical proxy approach
(Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography, 2014)
Coincident with shifting monsoon weather patterns over India, the phytoplankter Noctiluca miliaris has recently been observed to be dominating phytoplankton blooms in the northeastern Arabian Sea during the winter monsoons. ...
CHEMTAX-derived phytoplankton community structure associated with temperature fronts in the northeastern Arabian Sea..
(Elsevier, 2015)
Remotely sensed sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll associated with fronts and filaments are used in India to generate potential fishing zone (PFZ) advisories in the north eastern Arabian Sea (NEAS). However, ...
Biogeochemistry and ecology of Pyrosoma spinosum from the Central Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2015)
Background: A swarm of pelagic tunicate (Pyrosoma spinosum) was found in the surface open waters of the Arabian Sea during late southwest monsoon (September 2007). The swarm site was characterized by moderate southwesterly ...
