Significantly dominant warm-core eddies: An ecological indicator of the basin-scale low biological production in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)
This paper introduces the cumulative impact of cyclonic (cold-core) and anticyclonic (warm-core) eddies on the distribution of phytoplankton biomass in the Bay of Bengal (BoB). Estimations of the ocean surface eddy features ...
Hydrological regulation of Vibrio dynamics in a tropical monsoonal estuary: a classification and regression tree approach
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021)
Dynamics of Vibrio populations in aquatic environments are of concern, as they encompass members pathogenic to humans as well as marine flora and fauna. Spatiotemporal distribution of its culturable abundance for a range ...
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 ...
Spatial variations in dissolved inorganic nutrients in the groundwaters along the Indian coast and their export to adjacent coastal waters
(Springer, 2021)
Submarine Groundwater Discharge (SGD) is one of the main external nutrient sources to the coastal waters. The concentrations of nutrients in groundwaters are a few folds higher than that of adjacent coastal waters; therefore, ...
Short term response of plankton community to nutrient enrichment in central eastern Arabian Sea: Elucidation through mesocosm experiments
(Elsevier, 2021)
Oligotrophic waters (OW), generally favour longer food chain facilitated by the microbial loop. In such ecosystems, physical mixing (e.g. upwelling, and winter convection) inject nutrients and propagules from subsurface ...
Response of coastal phytoplankton to upwelling induced hydrological changes in the Alappuzha mud bank region, southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)
The response of phytoplankton community to the co-existing events of coastal upwelling and mud banks in the nearshore waters of Alappuzha (15 m depth), located in the southwest coast of India from April to November 2016, ...
Species substitutions revealed through genotyping: Implications of traceability limitations and unregulated fishing
(Elsevier, 2021)
Trade flow of fisheries sector is very complex with several intermediaries and it is difficult to trace back the origin of a seafood commodity. Thus, traceability limitations could cause safety and quality issues in the ...
Chemical Investigation of Marine-Derived Fungus Aspergillus flavipes for Potential Anti-Inflammatory Agents
(John Wiley and Sons, Ltd, 2021)
The marine fungus, Aspergillus flavipes (MTCC 5220), was isolated from the pneumatophore of a mangrove plant Acanthus ilicifolius found in Goa, India. The crude extract of A. flavipes was found to show anti-inflammatory ...
Formation and weathering assessment of oil-suspended sediment aggregates through a laboratory investigation
(Springer, 2021)
Formation of oil-suspended sediment aggregates (OSAs) is believed to be one of the natural cleaning processes in the marine environment. In this study, we have investigated the formation processes of OSAs under different ...
Dynamics of Vibrio cholerae in a Typical Tropical Lake and Estuarine System: Potential of Remote Sensing for Risk Mapping
(MDPI AG, 2021)
Vibrio cholerae, the bacterium responsible for the disease cholera, is a naturally-occurring bacterium, commonly found in many natural tropical water bodies. In the context of the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) ...
