Impact of salinity on the grazing rate of a cladocera (Latonopsis australis) in a large tropical estuarine system
(2020)
Cladocerans are ecologically important as active grazers at the secondary trophic level, and they are economically important in aquaculture as potential live feed for many commercially valuable fishes. This study deals ...
Lack of denitrification causes a difference in benthic foraminifera living in the oxygen deficient zones of the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Despite being located at the same latitudes, the Bay of Bengal oxygen deficient zone (ODZ) is markedly different than the Arabian Sea ODZ. The uptake of oxygen in the Bay of Bengal does not lead to denitrification as in ...
Change of lithofacies in marine sediment core from Quaternary to Pre-Quaternary: A case study from the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(2020)
A distinct change in lithofacies was observed from red clay to siliceous ooze in a core from Indian Ocean. Radiolarian index species were used to ascertain the Quaternary datum levels and an age of 2.0 Ma is determined up ...
The Oxygen Isotope Compositions of Large Numbers of Small Cosmic Spherules: Implications for Their Sources and the Isotopic Composition of the Upper Atmosphere
(American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2020)
Cosmic spherules are micrometeorites that melt at high altitude as they enter Earth’s atmosphere and
their oxygen isotope compositions are partially or completely inherited from the upper atmosphere,
depending on the ...
Factors structuring spatio-temporal dynamics of macrobenthic communities of three differently modified tropical estuaries
(2020)
Tropical estuaries of industrialized northwest coast of India, subject to seasonal and multifarious anthropogenic interventions, are poorly studied. Three estuaries, Ulhas, Amba and Savitri were investigated seasonally to ...
Ecology and distribution of tanaids in a large tropical estuary along the Southwest Coast of India
(2020)
The crustacean order Tanaidacea consists of macrobenthic invertebrates, which constitute a major food source for higher trophic levels in estuarine and marine environments. Based on seasonal sampling in the Kochi Backwaters ...
Widespread occurrence of methane seeps in deep-water regions of Krishna-Godavari basin, Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
Drilling/coring activities during NGHP-Expeditions 01 and 02 discovered significant gas hydrate deposits in the Krishna-Godavari (KG) basin, a proven petroliferous basin located along the eastern continental margin of ...
In vivo evaluation of microbial cocktail of microalgae-associated bacteria in larval rearing from zoea I to mysis I of the Indian white shrimp, Penaeus indicus
(Springer, 2020)
The present work aimed to explore the efficacy of microbial cocktail of microalgae-associated bacteria, such as Alteromonas sp. Mab 25, Labrenzia sp. Mab 26, Marinobacter sp. Mab 18 and Marinobacter sp. Mab 34, on survival, ...
Increased Ventilation of the Northern Indian Ocean during the Last Deglaciation
(Springer, 2020)
This paper gives an overview of the deep-water ventilation studies carried out over the world oceans using radiocarbon. There is a consensus that aged water mass existing in the abyssal ocean during the last glacial, ...
A new species of the genus Corynophrya (Ciliophora: Suctorea) from the west coast of India, Arabian Sea
(CNRS - Station Biologique de Roscoff - ABiMS, Roscoff, France, 2020)
The article presents the description of a new species of the suctorian genus Corynophrya inhabiting the body surface (cuticle) of harpacticoid copepod from the west coast of India, Arabian Sea. The diagnosis of the genus ...
