AoA Region: South Asian Seas
(UNESCO/IOC, 2009)
The South Asian Seas region lies in the northern extreme of the Indian Ocean. It includes the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal Large Marine Ecosystems (LME) along with their marginal basins as well as the Laccadive Sea and ...
Composition and genesis of zeolitic claystones from the central Indian Ocean Basin
(Geological Society of China, 2007)
More than fifty indurated sediments recovered from the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIoB) are examined during the course of collection for manganese nodules and crusts. The samples occur as slabs either over which ferromanganese ...
Variability in abundance and fluxes of dimethyl sulphide in the Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2007)
Dimethyl sulphide (DMS) is a biogenic gas of climatic significance on which limited information is available from the Indian Ocean. To fill in this gap, we collected data on DMS and DMSPt (total dimethylsulphoniopropionate) ...
Monsoonal reversal of remote sensing biases in latent heat flux over eastern Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 2006)
The Arabian Sea is a unique basin where a number of atmospheric and oceanographic processes occur due to the contrasting climatic conditions, which it experiences. The drastic monsoonal variability occurring in the boundary ...
The Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2008)
There are two unique aspects of geography of the Indian Ocean that profoundly influence its climate and circulation: (a) The Indian Ocean’s northern expanse is curtailed by the Eurasian landmass around the Tropic of Cancer ...
Coupling Between The North Indian Ocean And The Monsoons: A Model Based Study Of The Thermal Structure Cycling In The Central Arabian Sea
(2005)
To examine the role of various intervening processes in controlling the upper ocean thermal structure in the central Arabian Sea, a 1-D mixed-layer model based on turbulent closure scheme is forced by atmospheric fluxes ...
Delta ¹³C depleted oceans before the termination 2: More nutrient-rich deep-water formation or light-carbon transfer?
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2005)
Carbon-isotopes (delta ¹³C) composition of benthic foraminifera has been extensively used to understand the link between deep-water circulation and climate. Equatorial Indian Ocean delta ¹³C records of planktic- and ...
Ecobiology and Fisheries of an Economically Important Estuarine Fish, Sillago sihama (Forsskal)
(2008)
Goa with about 105 km long coastline has vast resources of marine shellfish and finfish. Fish is a protein rich food and for the state of Goa it assumes special significance as it forms one of the chief components in the ...
New records of Thecacineta cothurnioides and Trematosoma rotunda (Ciliophora, Suctorea) as epibionts on nematodes from the Indian Ocean
(Not clear, 2009)
This article deals with the report of two suctorian ciliates species viz. Thecacineta cothurnioides Collin, 1909 and Trematosoma rotunda (Allgen, 1952) as epibionts on Tricoma sp. and Pseudochromadora sp. (Nematoda) ...
Net community production in the northern Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 2009)
The monthly/seasonal variability in net community production (NCP) is controlled by the monsoon either through increasing nutrients to the euphotic zone or an increase in river runoff in the northern Indian Ocean. Net ...
