Indian contributions in the field of palaeoceanography (2006-2012)
(Indian National Science Academy, 2012)
Excellent studies have been carried by Indian scientists to understand paleoceanographic changes in the Indian Ocean including the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal using Ocean Drilling Program cores. These studies revealed ...
Physical forcing of biological productivity in the northern Arabian Sea during the northeast monsoon
(Pergamon, 2001)
Time-series observations at a nominally fixed location in the northern Arabian Sea (21 degrees N, 64 degrees E) during the Northeast Monsoon (winter, February) of 1997 showed the prevalence of cold sea-surface temperatures ...
Monsoon related changes in sea surface productivity and water column denitrification in the Eastern Arabian Sea during the last glacial cycle
(Elsevier, 2005)
Sea surface salinity reconstruction for the Holocene and the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) suggests that the LGM-Eastern Arabian Sea was more saline (by approx.5 psu) than the Holocene due to weakened freshwater flux to the ...
Seasonal variations in carbon biomass of bacteria, thraustochytrids and microzooplankton in the northern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2005)
As a part of the JGOFS-India Programme, abundance of heterotrophic bacteria (Hbac; 0-2000 m), thraustochytrids (0-2000 m), microzooplankton (0-200m occasionally up to 300 m) as well as bacterial growth rates (0-500 m) were ...
Seasonal fluctuation in the distribution of eggs and larvae of flat fishes (Pleuronectiformes - Pisces) in the Cochin Backwater
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1993)
Attempts have been made to correlate the abundance of eggs and larvae of flat fishes belonging to families Cynoglossidae and Soleidae with the hydrographical parameters of the environment, particularly the salinity. The ...
Studies on mixing of the waters of different salinity gradients using Richardsons number and the suspended sediment distribution in the Beypore Estuary, south west coast of India
(Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, New Delhi, 1999)
The study was conducted up to 15 km upstream in the Beypore Estuary of the Chaliyar River in Calicut. The study area was divided into four sections (5 km interval) with two transverse stations on either side of each section. ...
Seasonal wave characteristics of the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal
(Marine Biological Association of India, 1976)
Wave data reported in the Indian Daily Weather Reports for the period 1960-64 have been used to evaluate seasonal wave characteristics for each 2-degree square areas of the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. These results ...
Vertical distribution of temperature, salinity and density in the upper 500 metres of the north equatorial Indian Ocean during the north-east monsoon period
(National Institute of Sciences of India, 1968)
In the 4th and 5th scientific cruises of INS KISTNA under the Indian Programme of IIOE, five sections were worked out in the North Equatorial Indian Ocean during Jan-Feb 1963. Using the physical oceanographic data collected ...
Hydrochemistry of the Bay of Bengal: Possible reasons for a different water-column cycling of carbon and nitrogen from the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1994)
A study on biogeochemical cycling in the western Bay of Bengal was undertaken during two seasons (pre-southwest monsoon and northeast monsoon of 1991). Relationships of the conservative tracers NO and PO with potential ...
Culturable heterotrophic bacteria from the euphotic zone of the Indian Ocean ocean during the summer monsoon
(Elsevier, 1994)
Cuturable heterotrophic bacterial counts (viable counts: VC) by surface plating on ZoBell medium and total bacterial counts (TC) by epifuorenscence microscopy were carried out in sea water off the southwest coast of India ...
