Distinctive phytoplankton size responses to the nutrient enrichment of coastal upwelling and winter convection in the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2022)
Even though the seasonal pattern of phytoplankton biomass distribution in the seas around India is reasonably well understood, there is relatively little information on phytoplankton size classes. The current study shows ...
Copepod carcasses in the western Bay of Bengal and associated ecology
(Springer, 2022)
Although a portion of all copepods in the natural environment are physiologically inactive or dead, there is little data on this aspect in Indian seas. Using the classical neutral red live staining technique, the dead ...
Unraveling the sources of atmospheric organic aerosols over the Arabian Sea: Insights from the stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic composition
(Elsevier, 2022)
The isotopic composition of stable carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15N) in marine aerosols influenced by the continental outflows are useful proxies for understanding the aging and secondary formation processes. Every ...
Ecological preferences of living benthic foraminifera from the Mahanadi river-dominated north-western Bay of Bengal: A potential environmental impact assessment tool
(Elsevier, 2022)
The ecological preferences of living benthic foraminifera from the riverine influx dominated eastern continental margin of India have been studied. The living benthic foraminifera were abundant on the upper slope (~100-700 ...
Chemical Diversity and Bioactivity of Marine Sponges of the Genus Oceanapia: A Review
(Bentham Science Publishers Ltd., 2022)
The marine sponges of the genus Oceanapia sp. is comprised of more than 50 species and are distributed in the seas around the tropical and subtropical regions. They are mainly found in the northern Indian oceans, Japan, ...
Emiliania huxleyi biometry and calcification response to the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean environmental gradients
(Elsevier, 2022)
An increase in the atmospheric pCO2 and temperature is expected to reduce ocean CO32- concentration, make oceans warmer and alter ocean circulation patterns. This will also affect the production and biogeographic distribution ...
Multi-decadal changes of mangrove forest and its response to the tidal dynamics of thane creek, Mumbai
(Elsevier, 2022)
Mangroves are one of the world threatened ecosystems, which is protected and categorised under CRZ-I according to the Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) notification. The present study marked the decadal (1990-2017, Landsat ...
Time-dependent plume front positioning and its dynamics coupled with seasonal river efflux
(Springer, 2022)
The time-dependent plume front positioning with respect to different tidal phases and its dynamics coupled with seasonal river efflux on the shelf off Kochi, southwest coast of India, was investigated using Finite Volume ...
Multi-mineral potential of littoral placers of Sindhudurg District, Maharashtra, West coast of India
(Springer, 2022)
The present paper investigates the mineralogy of fluvial and coastal sediments, with special attention to the heavy mineral placers between Vijaydurg and Redi Point along the 105 km stretch of the coastal area of ...
Influence of seasonal and environmental variables on the emission of methane from the mangrove sediments of Goa
(Springer, 2022)
Mangrove sediments are known sources for methane emission that has a very high global warming potential. The spatio-temporal emission of methane in the mangrove sediments was quantified in the present study using the static ...
