Spatio-temporal variation in the macrobenthos of Paradip port, east coast of India
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2020)
The spatio-temporal variation in the abundance and community structure of macrobenthic invertebrates, which are useful ecological indicators, was assessed along with associated environmental settings and sediment characteristics ...
Tectono-magmatic evolution of Tethyan oceanic lithosphere in supra subduction zone forearc regime: Geochemical fingerprints from crust-mantle sections of Naga Hills Ophiolite
(Elsevier BV, 2021)
The Naga Hills Ophiolite (NHO) belt in the Indo-Myanmar range (IMR) represents a segment of Tethyan oceanic crust and upper mantle that was involved in an eastward convergence and collision of the Indian Plate with the ...
Changes in the ballast water tank bacterial community during a trans-sea voyage: Elucidation through next generation DNA sequencing
(Academic Press, 2020)
Ballast water (BW) mediated bioinvasion is one of the greatest threats to the health of aquatic ecosystems. Bacteria, unlike higher organisms, are transferred in large numbers through BW. Owing to their abundance and ...
Coherent response of the Indian Monsoon Rainfall to Atlantic Multi-decadal Variability over the last 2000 years
(2020)
Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) rainfall has a direct effect on the livelihoods of two billion people in the Indian-subcontinent. Yet, our understanding of the drivers of multi-decadal variability of the ISM is far from being ...
Hourly maximum individual wave height in the Indian shelf seas-its spatial and temporal variations in the recent 40 years
(Springer, 2020)
The spatial and temporal variability of the high individual wave heights, which pose a hazard in India's shelf seas, has not been investigated. In this study, the spatial and temporal variation of hourly maximum individual ...
Macrobenthic diversity and community structure at Cochin Port, an estuarine habitat along the southwest coast of India
(2020)
Estuarine habitats are highly dynamic owing to tidal and seasonal changes in physical and chemical properties, which, in turn, have a profound influence on the diversity and community structure of its living components. ...
A significant shift in particulate organic matter characteristics during flooding of River Krishna, eastern peninsular India
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2020)
Extremely heavy rainfall over a small, semi-arid section of the Indian Peninsula in October 2009, together with release of water from dams resulted in very severe flooding in River Krishna. The sources and type of organic ...
Is the benthic index AMBI impervious to seasonality and data transformations while evaluating the ecological status of an anthropized monsoonal estuary?
(2020)
Benthic indices are a potential measure of a system's ecological quality status. It is vital for an efficient index to distinguish the anthropogenic effects from the natural stress associated with seasonality, especially ...
Observed variability of the West India Coastal Current on the continental slope from 2009-2018
(2020)
We describe the variability of the West India Coastal Current (WICC) during October 2008 to October 2018 using data from ADCP (acoustic Doppler current profiler) moorings deployed on the continental slope off the west coast ...
Impacts of Zn and Cu enrichment under ocean acidification scenario on a phytoplankton community from tropical upwelling system
(2020)
Increasing dissolution of CO2 in the surface ocean is rapidly decreasing its pH and changing carbon chemistry which is further affecting marine biota in several ways. Phytoplankton response studies under the combination ...
