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 ...
Spatial and seasonal variations in the particulate sinking flux in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2023)
Sediment traps have been widely used to study particles sinking through the oceanic water column. As part of the SIBER-INDIA program, sediment traps were deployed at three depths ? 430 m (shallow), 1020 m (middle), and ...
Variability of dissolved oxygen in the Arabian Sea Oxygen Minimum Zone and its driving mechanisms
(2020)
The Arabian Sea hosts one of the most intense, perennial Oxygen Minimum Zones (OMZ) in the world ocean. Observations along a meridional transect at 68°E extending from 8 to 21°N showed large seasonal as well as interannual ...
Chemolithoautotrophic denitrification intensifies nitrogen loss in the Eastern Arabian Sea Shelf waters during sulphidic events
(Elsevier, 2023)
The Eastern Arabian Sea Shelf i.e. Western Indian Continental Shelf (WICS) – a known biogeochemical hotspot is characterized by monsoonal upwelling, seasonal O2 deficiency, extremely high N2O build-up and sulphidic events. ...
Dissolved methane in Indian freshwater reservoirs
(Springer, 2013)
Emission of methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas, from tropical reservoirs is of interest because such reservoirs experience conducive conditions for CH4 production through anaerobic microbial activities. It has been ...
Methane stimulates massive nitrogen loss from freshwater reservoirs in India
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018)
The fate of the enormous amount of reactive nitrogen released to the environment by human activities in India is unknown. Here we show occurrence of seasonal stratification and generally low concentrations of dissolved ...
