Seasonal nutrient chemistry in mountainous river systems of tropical Western Peninsular India
Pradhan, U.K.; Wu, Y.; Shirodkar, P.V.; Zhang, J. (Taylor and Francis, 2015)Nutrient chemistry was studied in three mountainous rivers (Mandovi, Zuari and Netravati), across western peninsular India (WPI) during south-west monsoon (SWM), post-monsoon and pre-monsoon seasons of year 2011-2012. ... -
Sources and distribution of organic matter in thirty five tropical estuaries along the west coast of India-a preliminary assessment
Pradhan, U.K.; Wu, Y.; Shirodkar, P.V.; Zhang, J.; Zhang, G. (Elsevier, 2014)Studies characterizing the sources of organic matter (OM) to the west coast of India (WCI) and its continental shelf are limited. This study examined sedimentary OM in 35 estuaries along the WCI using molecular biomarkers ... -
Sources and implications of particulate organic matter from a small tropical river-Zuari River, India
Fernandes, Dearlyn; Wu, Y.; Shirodkar, P.V.; Pradhan, U.K.; Zhang, J. (Springer Verlag, 2020)Transitional ecosystems, estuaries and the coastal seas, are distinctively affected by natural and anthropogenic factors. Organic matter (OM) originating from terrestrial sources is exported by rivers and forms a key ... -
Sources and preservation dynamics of organic matter in surface sediments of Narmada River, India - Illustrated by amino acids
Fernandes, D.; Wu, Y.; Shirodkar, P.V.; Pradhan, U.K.; Zhang, J.; Limbu, S.M. (2020)The preservation process of organic matter (OM) in estuarine environments determines the recycling and sinking of nutrients. This process requires the identification of sources, degradation states and the main processes ... -
Spatial and temporal variations in source, diagenesis, and fate of organic matter in sediments of the Netravati River, India
Fernandes, D.; Wu, Y.; Shirodkar, P.V.; Pradhan, U.K.; Zhu, Z.Y.; Zhang, J.; Limbu, S.M. (2019)Organic matter (OM) such as organic nitrogen plays a substantial role in the global biogeochemical cycling of bio-reactive components-amino acids (AA) in aquatic environments. Spatial and temporal variations in source, ... -
Tide dependent seasonal changes in water quality and assimilative capacity of anthropogenically influenced Mormugao harbour water
Shirodkar, P.V.; Deepthi, M.; Vethamony, P.; Mesquita, A.; Pradhan, U.K.; Babu, M.T.; Verlecar, X.N.; Haldankar, S.R. (CSIR-NISCAIR, 2012)Water quality data from Mormugao harbour area at the mouth of Zuari estuary in Goa have been obtained over two tidal cycles monthly for the year 2003 to 2004. R-mode factor analyses of the data indicated strong positive ... -
Translocation of intertidal corals in highly urbanized Mumbai seascape: A pragmatic management initiative towards ecosystem conservation
Sautya, S.; Gaikwad, Santosh; De, K.; Nanajkar, M.; Pradhan, U.K.; Mohandass, C.; Sahu, Balaram (Elsevier, 2022)Coral reefs harbour rich biodiversity by increasing heterogeneous habitat and providing numerous ecosystem services and goods. However, they are highly threatened due to ongoing climate change and various anthropogenic ...
