An insight into subterranean flow proposition around Alleppey mudbank coastal sector, Kerala, India: Inferences from the subsurface profiles of ground penetrating radar
(Springer, 2016)
The mudbank formation along south-western Indian coast has been a scintillating phenomenon during monsoon season, and the source of mud is a debatable issue till now. In the midst of many hypotheses, the subterranean passage ...
Coupling between suboxic condition in sediments of the western Bay of Bengal and southwest monsoon intensification: A geochemical study
(Elsevier, 2013)
Reconstruction of paleo-redox conditions in a radiocarbon (14C) dated sediment core (SK-218/1), covering the past 45 ka (thousand calendar years), collected from the western Bay of Bengal (Lat: 14 degrees 02′N; Long: 82 ...
Indian Ocean margins
(Springer-Verlag, 2010)
The most important biogeochemical transformations and boundary exchanges in the Indian Ocean seem to occur in the northern region, where the processes originating at the land-ocean boundary extend far beyond the continental ...
Marine hypoxia/anoxia as a source of CH4 and N2O
(European Geosciences Union, 2010)
We review here the available information on methane (CH sub(4)) and nitrous oxide (N sub(2)O) from major marine, mostly coastal, oxygen (O sub(2))-deficient zones formed both naturally and as a result of human activities ...
Positive Indian ocean dipole events prevent anoxia off the west coast of India
(European Geosciences Union, 2017)
The seasonal upwelling along the west coast of India (WCI) brings nutrient-rich, oxygen-poor subsurface waters to the continental shelf, favoring very low oxygen concentrations in the surface waters during late boreal ...
Cecembia lonarensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a haloalkalitolerant bacterium of the family Cyclobacteriaceae, isolated from a haloalkaline lake and emended descriptions of the genera Indibacter, Nitritalea and Belliella
(Society for General Microbiology, 2012)
A novel Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile bacterium, designated strain LW9T, was isolated from a water sample collected from Lonar Lake of Buldhana district, Maharashtra, India. Colonies and broth cultures ...
Discriminating the biophysical impacts of coastal upwelling and mud banks along the southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)
Coastal upwelling and mud banks are two oceanographic processes concurrently operating along certain stretches of the southwest (Kerala) coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon period (June-September), facilitating ...
Natural and human-induced hypoxia and consequences for coastal areas: Synthesis and future development
(European Geosciences Union, 2010)
Hypoxia has become a world-wide phenomenon in the global coastal ocean and causes a deterioration of the structure and function of ecosystems. Based on the collective contributions of members of SCOR Working Group 128, the ...
Hypoxia in the changing marine environment
(IOP Publishing, 2013)
The predicted future of the global marine environment, as a combined result of forcing due to climate change (e.g. warming and acidification) and other anthropogenic perturbation (e.g. eutrophication), presents a challenge ...
Biogeochemistry of methane in a tropical monsoonal estuarine system along the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2018)
Estuaries are known to be important sources of methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. However, a lack of adequate field studies in understanding the sources/sinks of CH4 in estuaries hampers the global atmospheric budgeting. ...
