New and primary production in the western Indian Ocean during fall monsoon
(2019)
To examine the spatial variability and controlling factors of new, regenerated and primary productions, 21 stations were studied during fall monsoon period in the western Indian Ocean under Indian-GEOTRACES program. The ...
Suppressed biological production in the coastal waters off Visakhapatnam, India under the impact of the very severe cyclonic storm Hudhud
(2019)
Tropical cyclones generally enhance biological production due to the increase in nutrients input due to vertical mixing. In contrast, the very severe cyclonic storm (VSCS) Hudhud decreased primary production due to the ...
Role of eddies on intensity of oxygen minimum zone in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2018)
One of the strongest oxygen minimum zones (OMZ) in the world oceans occurs in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) with no systematic trends in dissolved oxygen (DO) since past half a century. An evaluation is made here to examine the ...
Impact of eddies on dissolved inorganic carbon components in the Bay of Bengal
(2019)
To examine the influence of anticyclonic (ACE) and cyclonic (CE) eddies on variations in hydrographic properties and total inorganic carbon system (CT), a study was conducted in the western Bay of Bengal (BoB). The depth ...
Influence of phytoplankton pigment composition and primary production on pCO2 levels in the Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2021)
The tropical Indian Ocean is a net sink for the carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere and phytoplankton production plays a crucial role in CO2 fixation and determines the direction of CO2 flux at the sea-to-air interface. ...
Ecosystem response in temperature fronts in the northeastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2018)
Productivity is low in tropical waters outside the traditional upwelling regimes, making temperature fronts a potential marker of fish. To test the hypothesis that all temperature fronts harbour high concentrations of ...
Particulate Organic Carbon Composition in Temperature Fronts of the Northeastern Arabian Sea during Winter
(Wiley, 2018)
In order to understand the major sources of particulate organic carbon (POC) in the frontal zones and to examine their variability with space and time, a total of five temperature fronts of different ages was sampled in ...
Organic Nutrients Support High Primary Production in the Bay of Bengal
(2019)
The Bay of Bengal (BoB) is known to experience low productivity but high sinking carbon fluxes to the bottom, and this paradox is attributed to mineral ballast of organic matter. We found for the first time that primary ...
