Basin-wide seasonal evolution of the Indian Ocean's phytoplankton blooms
(American Geophysical Union, 2007)
A climatology of Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor (SeaWiFS) chlorophyll data over the Indian Ocean is used to examine the bloom variability patterns, identifying spatio-temporal contrasts in bloom appearance and ...
Comparative toxicity of water soluble fractions of four oils on the growth of a Microalga
(Walter de Gruyter, Berlin, 2000)
Toxic effects of water soluble fractions (WSF) of four different fuel oils on a microalga. Tetraselmis gracilis, were examined and compared. On applying different concentrations of WSF, a decrease in cell population was ...
Picophytoplankton community from tropical marine biofilms
(Elsevier, 2012)
Although the importance of picophytoplankton as the major primary producers is well established in the oceanic and coastal marine environment, occurrence of this community in the marine biofilms is not explored. Considering ...
Reduced river discharge intensifies phytoplankton bloom in Godavari estuary, India
(Elsevier, 2012)
Changes in river discharge alter material load and the consequent estuarine and coastal biogeochemical process. Evidence for biogeochemical response to variable rainfall over catchment area or changes in river discharges ...
Intensified oxygen minimum zone on the western shelf of Bay of Bengal during summer monsoon: Influence of river discharge
(Springer, 2013)
A study on biogeochemical cycling in the west coastal Bay of Bengal was undertaken during the peak discharge period to understand the influence of enhanced stratification and primary production on the possible intensification ...
The Arabian Sea
(Blackwell, 2003)
The Arabian Sea makes contributions to global biogeochemical cycles that are far in excess of what might be expected from its modest size. It experiences extremes in atmospheric forcing, asymmetrically distributed over the ...
The response of microzooplankton (20-200 mu m) to coastal upwelling and summer stratification in the southeastern
(Elsevier, 2008)
During the late summer monsoon (LSM), coastal upwelling and river runoff have increased the nutrient concentration in the inshore region of the southeastern Arabian Sea. This has resulted in elevated chlorophyll-a (av. 40 ...
Influence of physical and biological processes on the seasonal cycle of biogenic flux in the equatorial Indian Ocean
(European Geosciences Union, 2013)
Seasonal cycle of biogenic fluxes obtained from sediment trap at two locations 5°24` N, 86°46` E (southern Bay of Bengal trap; SBBT) and 3°34` N, 77°46` E (equatorial Indian Ocean trap; EIOT) within the equatorial Indian ...
The relationship between volatile halocarbons and phytoplankton pigments during a Trichodesmium bloom in the coastal eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2011)
Eukaryotic phytoplankton such as diatoms and prymnesiophytes produce biogenic halocarbons in the ocean that serve as important sources of chlorine and bromine to the atmosphere, but the role of cyanobacteria in halocarbon ...
The next generation of iron fertilization experiments in the Southern Ocean
(The Royal Society, 2008)
Of the various macro-engineering schemes proposed to mitigate global warming, ocean iron fertilization (OIF) is one that could be started at short notice on relevant scales. It is based on the reasoning that adding trace ...
