The oxygen minimum zone in the Arabian Sea during 1995
(Pergamon, 1999)
This paper focuses on the characteristics of the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) as observed in the Arabian Sea over the complete monsoon cycle of 1995. Dissolved oxygen, nitrite, nitrate and density values are used to delineate ...
Benthic fluxes of methane along the salinity gradient of a tropical monsoonal estuary: Implications for CH4 supersaturation and emission
(Elsevier, 2018)
Observations in the Mandovi estuary, a typical tropical monsoonal estuary located on the west coast of India, revealed that waters were perennially supersaturated with CH4, indicating that the estuary could be a significant ...
AoA Region: The regional organization for the protection of the marine environment/regional commission for fisheries (ROPME/RECOFI) area
(UNESCO/IOC, 2009)
The ROPME/RECOFI or ROPME Sea Area includes eight countries, Bahrain, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates and contains part of the Arabian Sea LME.
Coastal biogeochemical processes in the north Indian Ocean (14, S-W)
(Harvard University Press, 2006)
Production of dimethylsulphide during the seasonal anoxia off Goa
(Springer, 2012)
Subsurface waters over the western Indian continental shelf experience seasonal anoxia towards the end of the southwest monsoon season. During a 3-day study carried out at the Candolim time series site (off the coast of ...
Miocene phosphorites from the Murray Ridge, northwestern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2008)
Phosphorites from the Murray Ridge, NW Arabian Sea comprise nodules, bioclasts, and bone fragments. The nodules are made up of a homogeneous, light-colored phosphate nucleus consisting of Rivulariacean filamentous cyanobacteria ...
Seasonal variations in abundance, biomass and grazing rates of microzooplankton in a tropical monsoonal estuary
(Springer, 2015)
Seasonal abundance, composition and grazing rates of microzooplankton (20–200 µm) in the Zuari estuary were investigated to evaluate their importance in food web dynamics of a tropical monsoonal estuary. Average abundances ...
Isotopic composition of nitrate in the central Arabian Sea and eastern tropical North Pacific: A tracer for mixing and nitrogen cycles
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 1998)
The delta sup(15)N composition of nitrate and N sub(2) gas was measured in the eastern tropical North Pacific (ETNP) and central Arabian Sea (AS) suboxic regions. The delta sup(15)N of nitrate increased from 6 ppt at 2,500 ...
Indian Ocean Dipole and El Nino/Southern Oscillation impacts on regional chlorophyll anomalies in the Indian Ocean
(Copernicus Publications, 2013)
The Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) and the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) are independent climate modes, which frequently co-occur, driving significant interannual changes within the Indian Ocean. We use a four-decade ...
Impact of tropical cyclone on biogeochemistry of the central Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 2008)
Remotely sensed data are combined with shipboard measurements to investigate biogeochemical changes caused by a moderate tropical cyclone in the central Arabian Sea in December 1998. The sea surface temperature decreased ...
