Eddy-mediated biological productivity in the Bay of Bengal during fall and spring intermonsoons
(Elsevier, 2007)
The signature of cold-core eddies and their role in altering the biological productivity of the Bay of Bengal was examined using two recent sets of hydrographic data collected along the central and western Bay of Bengal ...
Is the biological productivity in the Bay of Bengal light limited?
(Current Science Association, 2010)
Recent measurements of chlorophyll, primary productivity (PP) and nutrients along the central Bay of Bengal (BOB) during summer, fall and spring intermonsoons showed that the northern bay becomes less productive compared ...
Comparative accounts of biological productivity characteristics and estimates of carbon fluxes in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2005)
The Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengalare tropical basins experiencing monsoonalwind forcing that reverses semiannually. This brings changes in physics, chemistry and biology of the upper water column on a seasonal scale ...
Distributional characteristics of surface-layer mesozooplankton in the Bay of Bengal during the 2005 winter monsoon.
(NISCAIR, 2014)
Present study consists spatial patterns in biomass, abundance and composition of mesozooplankton in Bay of Bengal. Surface samples were collected from a central open ocean transect along 88ºE and western coastal transect ...
Preponderance of a few diatom species among the highly diverse microphytoplankton assemblages in the Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2007)
The microphytoplankton assemblages were studied from water samples collected at eight discrete depths in the top 120 m at five central [open ocean] and four western [shelf/slope region] locations in the Bay of Bengal. The ...
Mesozooplankton community structure in the upper 1,000 m along the western Bay of Bengal during the 2002 fall intermonsoon
(Springer, 2013)
Stratification, no upwelling, sediment load, and heavy cloud cover are known to limit primary production in the western Bay of Bengal. Studies on primary consumers in this area are few. Recent studies in the Bay have shown ...
Strong variability in bacterioplankton abundance and production in central and western Bay of Bengal
(Springer-Verlag, 2008)
With large influx of freshwater that decreases sea-surface salinities, weak wind forcing of less than 10 m s sup (-1) and almost always warm (greater than 28 degrees C) sea-surface temperature that stratifies and shallows ...
Mesozooplankton community in the Bay of Bengal (India): Spatial variability during the summer monsoon
(Springer, 2009)
This study addresses the spatial variability in mesozooplankton biomass and composition in the Central and Western Bay of Bengal (India) during the summer monsoon season of 2001. Perennially warmer sea surface temperatures ...
Environmental controls on the seasonal carbon dioxide fluxes in the northeastern Indian Ocean
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2010)
Total carbon dioxide (TCO sub(2)) and computations of partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO sub(2)) had been examined in Northerneastern region of Indian Ocean. It exhibit seasonal and spatial variability. North-south ...
Analysis of phytoplankton composition from southern Malabar Coast during the 2005 monsoon as a follow-up of September 2004 stench event
(Indian Academy of Science, 2007)
One of the main objectives of this study was to follow up and see if holococcolithophore that was predominant in all of over 30 samples from the southern Malabar Coast, Karnataka, India during September-October 2004 was ...
