Corroded planktic foraminifer (Globorotalia menardii) in the southern Bay of Bengal sediment trap sample of February 1992
(Geological Society of India, 2006)
Planktic foraminiferal studies from the southern Bay of Bengal (SBBT) indicate the presence of corroded specimens of Globorotalia menardii in the deep trap at a depth of 3011 m during February-March 1992. Strangely, all ...
Estimation of tropical cyclone heat potential in the Bay of Bengal and its role in the genesis and intensification of storms
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2006)
In the present study, cyclone heat potential (CHP) in the Bay of Bengal has been estimated for different seasons using Levitus climatology. A good association was noticed between CHP and the efficiency of intensification ...
Lack of seasonality in phytoplankton standing stock (chlorophyll a) and production in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2006)
The investigations in the western Bay of Bengal (BoB) during summer, winter and spring intermonsoon periods evidenced lack of pronounced seasonal variation in phytoplankton standing stock (chlorophyll a) and primary ...
Seasonal variability of the mixed layer in the central Bay of Bengal and associated changes in nutrients and chlorophyll
(Elsevier, 2006)
Hydrographic data from NODC and RNODC were used to study the seasonal variability of the mixed layer in the central Bay of Bengal (8oN to 20oN and 87oE to 91oE), while meteorological data from COADS were used to explore ...
Marine boundary layer characteristics during a cyclonic storm over the Bay of Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
During the period 12–16 June 1996 a tropical cyclonic storm formed over the southwest Bay of Bengal and moved in a north–northeasterly direction. The thermodynamic characteristics of this system are investigated by utilizing ...
Post-tsunami oceanographic conditions in southern Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Physical oceanographic conditions along the east and west coasts of India immediately after the recent devastating tsunami are presented here. The thermocline in the southeast coast exhibited trivial downward tilt towards ...
Linking Indian rivers vs Bay of Bengal monsoon Activity
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Application of remote sensing and GIS in the analysis of environment of Bay of Bengal
(2006)
The Bay of Bengal is a northern extended arm of the Indian Ocean, situated in eastern part between equator and 220N latitude and 800E and 1000E longitude. It is a tropical basin, landlocked in the north by the landmasses ...
Spatial variations of DMS, DMSP and phytoplankton in the Bay of Bengal during the summer monsoon 2001
(Elsevier, 2006)
Data on the distribution of Dimethylsulphide (DMS) and dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) in relation to phytoplankton abundance in different oceanic environments is important to understand the biogeochemistry of DMS, which ...
