Major and trace element geochemistry of S-type cosmic spherules
(The Meteoritical society, U.S., 2016)
Micrometeorites that pass through the Earth's atmosphere undergo changes in their chemical compositions, thereby making it difficult to understand if they are sourced from the matrix, chondrules, or calcium–aluminum-rich ...
Ruthenium(II)-catalyzed synthesis of pyrrole- and indole-fused isocoumarins by C-H bond activation in DMF and water
(Wiley, 2016)
Pyrrole- and indole-fused isocoumarins constitute important structural units in natural products and pharmacophores, although the direct and selective bifunctionalization of pyrrole and indole remain a challenge. Herein, ...
Preliminary results of an algorithm to determine the total absorption coefficient of water
(Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2016)
An algorithm to determine the spectral total absorption coefficient of water is presented. The algorithm is based on the Gershun’s equation of alfa = micro K<sub>E</sub>. The spectral underwater average cosine, micro and ...
Variations in concentrations and fluxes of dimethylsulfide (DMS) from the Indian estuaries
(Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation, 2016)
In order to examine the variations in concentrations of dimethylsulfide (DMS) and its fluxes to the atmosphere, 25 major and medium estuaries from Indian subcontinent were sampled during wet and dry periods. River discharge ...
Variations in carbonaceous species at a high-altitude site in western India: Role of synoptic scale transport
(Elsevier, 2016)
Atmospheric fine-mode particulate matter (PM2.5), collected during January to December 2007 at a high-altitude site (Mt. Abu, 24.6°N, 72.7°E, 1680 m asl) in the western India, have been analysed for carbonaceous and inorganic ...
The abrupt onset of the modern South Asian monsoon winds
(Macmillan Publishers Limited, 2016)
The South Asian Monson (SAM) is one of the most intense climatic elements yet its initiation and variations are not well established. Dating the deposits of SAM wind-driven currents in IODP cores from the Maldives yields ...
Export of dissolved inorganic nutrients to the northern Indian Ocean from the Indian monsoonal rivers during discharge period
(Elsevier, 2016)
Coastal regions are highly productive due to the nutrients largely supplied by rivers. To examine the contribution of dissolved inorganic nutrients (DIN) by Indian rivers to coastal waters, data were collected near the ...
Sedimentary pigments and nature of organic matter within the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) of the Eastern Arabian Sea (Indian margin)
(Elsevier, 2016)
Sedimentary pigments, carbon and nitrogen content and their stable isotopes were studied in three short cores collected from the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) of the Eastern Arabian Sea (EAS). Nine pigments including chlorophyll ...
Linkage between speciation of Cd in mangrove sediment and its bioaccumulation in total soft tissue of oyster from the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2016)
This study established a mechanistic linkage between Cd speciation and bioavailability in mangrove system from the west coast of India. High bioaccumulation of Cd was found in the oyster (Crassostrea sp.) even at low Cd ...
Why is the Bay of Bengal experiencing a reduced rate of sea surface warming?
(Royal Meteorological Society, 2016)
The sea surface temperature (SST) in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) during the period 1960–1995 showed a decadal cycle, riding over a warming trend. The disruption of the decadal cycle was noticed post-1995 and was followed by a ...
