Genetic variability in the natural populations of Carinotetraodon travancoricus revealed using itochondrial COI sequences
(John Wiley and Sons, Ltd, 2021)
Carinotetraodon travancoricus or Malabar puffer fish is an endemic species described from rivers originating from the Western Ghats in South India. This species is captured extensively as an aquarium fish and is having ...
Strike-slip seismicity at the Andaman-Sumatra Subduction Zone: Role of the fracture zones and age of the subducting lithosphere
(Elsevier, 2021)
A better comprehension of the shallow strike-slip seismicity along the Sunda Trench is achieved by superimposing the Wharton basin fracture zones, magnetic isochrones, and focal mechanisms to the geometry of the subducting ...
Molluscan Diversity Influenced by Mangrove Habitat in the Khors of Qatar
(Springer, 2021)
The Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Qatar is a rapidly developing region within the Arabian Gulf, where monitoring of changes in benthic biodiversity and its functioning is needed. The influence of mangroves and seasonality ...
Possible Linkages between Microseisms in the Andaman?Nicobar Region and Swells in the South Indian Ocean
(Seismological Society of America, 2021)
Microseism source characterization and its genesis play a key role in linking microseism records to prevailing atmospheric and oceanic conditions. In the present study, we analyzed the spatial and temporal distribution of ...
Biophysical responses to tropical cyclone Hudhud over the Bay of Bengal
(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2021)
Cyclone Hudhud originated in the Andaman Sea on 6 October 2014. Later, it intensified into a cyclonic storm on 8 October and eventually made landfall at Visakhapatnam on 12 October as a very severe cyclonic storm. It was ...
Concentration of Trace Metals and Biochemical Alterations in Various Species of Fishes along the West Coast of India
(Korea Ocean Research and Development Institute, 2021)
This study seeks to evaluate levels of seven trace metals (Cr, Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Pb and Hg) and biochemical (proteins, lipids and carbohydrates) alterations in muscle tissue of 27 commercially important fish species collected ...
Seasonal variations in viral distribution, dynamics, and viral-mediated host mortality in the Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2021)
Viruses are key players in the marine ecosystem. It is critical to study specific viral processes and their inter-relationship with various biotic and abiotic variables to quantify their impact on the marine environment. ...
Variation of salinity in the Sundarbans estuarine system during the equinoctial spring tidal phase of march 2011
(Springer, 2021)
The Sundarbans Estuarine System (SES), comprising the southernmost part of the Indian portion of the Ganga-Brahmaputra delta bordering the Bay of Bengal, is India's largest monsoonal, macro-tidal, delta-front estuarine ...
Impact of physical processes on oxygen loss and production of hydrogen sulphide and methane in a tropical freshwater reservoir
(Springer, 2021)
Carbon neutrality of tropical reservoirs is a big concern in recent years as some estimates project high methane emission from these reservoirs. While there are studies available on the impact of physical processes ...
Fatty acids as indicators of sediment organic matter dynamics in a monsoon-influenced tropical estuary
(Elsevier, 2021)
Sedimentary organic matter (OM) composition serves as a biomarker and helps in hindcast analysis of the events in the habitat. The present study was carried out on a monthly basis to evaluate the contribution of different ...
