Impact of river discharge on the coastal water pH and pCO<sub>2</sub> levels during the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) years in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2015)Monthly variations in inorganic carbon components during January 2010–December 2011 in the coastal Bay of Bengal (BoB) were studied in relation to the variations in Godavari River (GR) discharge using ship board measurements, ... -
Improving modeling of tides on the continental shelf off the west coast of India
(Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2016)Global tidal solutions are sometimes inaccurate in coastal regions. This is particularly true in some regions of the northern Indian Ocean, which are characterized by wide continental shelves and large tidal ranges. We ... -
Indian Ocean dipole modulated wave climate of eastern Arabian Sea
(European Geosciences Union, 2016)Intrinsic modes of variability have a significant role in driving the climatic oscillations in the oceanic processes. In this paper, we investigate the influence of an inter-annual mode of variability, the Indian Ocean ... -
Indo-Arab trading posts along the Saurashtra coast, Gujarat India (Study based on underwater archaeological explorations)
(Swati Publications; Delhi; India, 2015) -
Influence of 2015 flood on the distribution and occurrence of microplastic pellets along the Chennai coast, India
(Elsevier, 2016)The sources, distribution, surface features, polymer composition and age of microplastic pellets (MPPs) in surface sediments along the Chennai coast during March 2015 (pre-Chennai flood) and November 2015 (post-Chennai ... -
Influence of upper ocean stratification interannual variability on tropical cyclones
(American Geophysical Union, 2014)Climate modes, such as the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), influence Tropical Cyclones ~ (TCs) interannual activity through their effect on large-scale atmospheric environment. These climate modes also induce interannual ... -
Inter-annual sea level variability in the southern South China Sea
(Elsevier, 2015)The South China Sea (SCS) is the largest marginal sea in the western Pacific Basin. Sea level anomalies (SLAs) in the southern South China Sea (SSCS) are assumed to be governed by various phenomena associated with the ... -
Inter-annual variations in wave characteristics off Ratnagiri, Northeast Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2015)The wave data measured using the Datawell directional wave rider buoy at 13 m water depth off Ratnagiri during 2010 to 2013 is used to study the inter-annual variations in the wave characteristics. The percentage occurrence ... -
Interhemispheric controls on deep ocean circulation and carbon chemistry during the last two glacial cycles
(American Geophysical Union, 2015)Changes in ocean circulation structure, together with biological cycling, have been proposed for trapping carbon in the deep ocean during glacial periods of the Late Pleistocene, but uncertainty remains in the nature and ... -
Intraseasonal variability of mixed layer depth in the tropical Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2016)In this paper, we use an observational dataset built from Argo in situ profiles to describe the main large-scale patterns of intraseasonal mixed layer depth (MLD) variations in the Indian Ocean. An eddy permitting (0.25°) ... -
Mineralogy and Sr–Nd isotopes of SPM and sediment from the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries: Influence of weathering and anthropogenic contribution
(Elsevier, 2015)Clay minerals and Sr–Nd isotopes of suspended particulate matter (SPM) and bottom sediment were investigated along transect stations of the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, western India to determine the provenance and role ... -
Mud banks of Kerala: Mystery yet to be unveiled!
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2016)Mud Banks are areas of the sea adjoining the coast with calm water during the roughest monsoon conditions of the sea. They provide a rich catch of fishery too. -
Nearshore waves and longshore sediment transport along Rameshwaram Island off the east coast of India
(SNAK, 2015)Wave-induced Longshore Sediment Transport (LST) play an important role in the dynamics of the Dhanushkodi sandspit located southeast of Rameshwaram. The LST along the Dhanushkodi coast is studied based on data collected ... -
Observational evidence of mixed rossby gravity waves at the central equatorial Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2015)Six-hourly soundings (GPS sonde) were carried out at the central equatorial Indian Ocean (80º–83ºE) during 25th September–10th October 2011 under the CINDY2011 (Cooperative Indian Ocean Experiment on Intra-seasonal variability ... -
Observed internal tides and near-inertial waves on the continental shelf and slope off Jaigarh, central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2016)The characteristics of internal tides (ITs) and near-inertial waves (NIWs) on the continental shelf and slope off Jaigarh (17degreeN), central west coast of India were studied. Eight-month (March–October) long Acoustic ... -
Observed variations in stratification and currents in the Zuari estuary, west coast of India
(Springer, 2015)25-hour time series measurements of vertical salinity profiles and currents in Zuari estuary were done during both spring and neap tidal cycles of pre-monsoon (April–May), south-west monsoon (June–September) and post-monsoon ... -
Ocean feedback to tropical cyclones: Climatology and processes
(Springer, 2014)This study presents the first multidecadal and coupled regional simulation of cyclonic activity in the South Pacific. The long-term integration of state-of the art models provides reliable statistics, missing in usual event ... -
Oceanic mesoscale turbulence drives large biogeochemical interannual variability at middle and high latitudes
(American Geophysical Union, 2014)Observed phytoplankton interannual variability has been commonly related to atmospheric variables and climate indices. Here we showed that such relation is highly hampered by internal variability associated with oceanic ... -
