Time series monitoring of water quality and microalgal diversity in a tropical bay under intense anthropogenic interference (SW coast of the Bay of Bengal, India)
(Elsevier, 2015)
In recent decades, material fluxes to coastal waters from various land based anthropogenic activities have signifi- cantly been enhanced around the globe which can considerably impact the coastal water quality and ecosystem ...
Influence of natural and anthropogenic factors on the water quality of the coastal waters around the South Andaman in the Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2015)
During the last decade, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands (ANI) have witnessed a marginal population growth with associated variations and degradation in the water quality of the inhabited coastal region. Monthly water quality ...
Export of dissolved inorganic nutrients to the northern Indian Ocean from the Indian monsoonal rivers during discharge period
(Elsevier, 2016)
Coastal regions are highly productive due to the nutrients largely supplied by rivers. To examine the contribution of dissolved inorganic nutrients (DIN) by Indian rivers to coastal waters, data were collected near the ...
Linkage between speciation of Cd in mangrove sediment and its bioaccumulation in total soft tissue of oyster from the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2016)
This study established a mechanistic linkage between Cd speciation and bioavailability in mangrove system from the west coast of India. High bioaccumulation of Cd was found in the oyster (Crassostrea sp.) even at low Cd ...
Relationship between the lability of sediment-bound Cd and its bioaccumulation in edible oyster.
(Elsevier, 2015)
A linkage between Cd speciation in sediments and its bioaccumulation in edible oyster (Crassostrea sp.) from a tropical estuarine system was established. Bioaccumulation of Cd in edible oyster increased with the increasing ...
Reduction of mercury (II) by humic substances-influence of pH, salinity of aquatic system
(Springer, 2015)
This study demonstrates that under abiotic dark conditions in aquatic system, humic substances are not only capable of converting Hg(II) to Hg<sup>0</sup> but also able to bind Hg(II) ion. The degree of Hg(II) reduction ...
Southwest monsoon influences the water quality and waste assimilative capacity in the Mandovi estuary (Goa state, India)
(Taylor and Francis, 2015)
The monsoon-dominated Mandovi estuary is located in Goa state – a global tourist destination along the centralwest coast of India. In addition to factor analyses of water quality data, the water quality index (WQI), trophic ...
Transformation of triphenyltin by Eubacteria: Fate and effects in environmental system
(Springer, 2015)
Organotins such as triphenyltin (TPT) form an important group of bio-environmental tin-substituted aromatic contaminants used in various industries. Anthropogenic activities have led to an increase in TPT concentrations ...
Atmospheric fine and coarse mode aerosols at different environments of India and the Bay of Bengal during winter-2014: Implications of a coordinated campaign
(Metrology Society of India, 2014)
In this paper, we present mass concentrations of particulate matter [PM<sub>2.5</sub>, PM<sub>10</sub> size fractions and total suspended particulates (TSP)] measured simultaneously over land stations (Kullu, Patiala, ...
A preliminary estimate of total petroleum hydrocarbons in water and osme commercially important fish species in the Amba estuary, west coast of India
(Springer, 2016)
Amba Estuary, which receives effluent from several industries including a petrochemical complex, opens to the southern limits of the Mumbai Harbor. The study was conducted to find out the level of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons ...
