Phytoplankton response to the contrasting physical regimes in the eastern Arabian Sea during north east monsoon
(Elsevier, 2018)
Phytoplankton abundance and composition in two contrasting physical regimes - convective mixing in the northeastern Arabian Sea (NEAS) and Arabian Sea mini warm pool (ASMWP) in the southeastern Arabian Sea (SEAS) - were ...
Dissolved methane in Indian freshwater reservoirs
(Springer, 2013)
Emission of methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas, from tropical reservoirs is of interest because such reservoirs experience conducive conditions for CH4 production through anaerobic microbial activities. It has been ...
Seasonal occurrence of anoxygenic photosynthesis in Tillari and Selaulim reservoirs, Western India
(The European Geosciences Union, 2012)
Phytoplankton and bacterial pigment compositions were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) in two freshwater reservoirs (Tillari Dam and Selaulim ...
Spatial variability in phytoplankton community structure along the eastern Arabian Sea during the onset of south-west monsoon
(Elsevier, 2016)
The Arabian Sea experiences moderate to weak upwelling along the south-west coast of India, which subsequently propagates towards the north. This causes variation in plankton community composition, which is addressed in ...
Nitrogen fixation rates in the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2017)
The Arabian Sea experiences bloom of the diazotroph Trichodesmium during certain times of the year when optimal sea surface temperature and oligotrophic condition favour their growth. We measured nitrogen fixation rates ...
Impact of physical processes on oxygen loss and production of hydrogen sulphide and methane in a tropical freshwater reservoir
(Springer, 2021)
Carbon neutrality of tropical reservoirs is a big concern in recent years as some estimates project high methane emission from these reservoirs. While there are studies available on the impact of physical processes ...
Methane stimulates massive nitrogen loss from freshwater reservoirs in India
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018)
The fate of the enormous amount of reactive nitrogen released to the environment by human activities in India is unknown. Here we show occurrence of seasonal stratification and generally low concentrations of dissolved ...
Phytoplankton dynamics in a seasonal stratified reservoir (Tillari), Western India
(EDP Sciences, 2021)
Phytoplankton are the primary producers in all the aquatic ecosystems and play an important role in key biogeochemical processes that are linked to the higher trophic levels and climate variability. The present study deals ...
Dynamics of dimethylsulphide and associated compounds in the coastal waters of Goa, west coast of India
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Concentrations of total dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSPt), Dimethylsulphide (DMS) and total dimethylsulphoxide (DMSOt) were measured at a coastal time series site, west coast of India, from September 2009 to December ...
Cyclone phyan-induced plankton community succession in the coastal waters off Goa, India
(Current Science Association, 2016)
Effects of the cyclonic storm Phyan, which hit the states of Goa and Maharashtra in western India during 9-12 November 2009, on coastal waters were studied. Mixing induced by the cyclone appreciably affected the vertical ...
