A Printable Device for Measuring Clarity and Colour in Lake and Nearshore Waters
Brewin, R.; Brewin, T.; Phillips, J.; Rose, S.; Anas, A.; Wimmer, W.; Sathyendranath, S.; Platt, T. (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute- MDPI AG, Basel, Switzerland, 2019)Two expanding areas of science and technology are citizen science and three-dimensional (3D) printing. Citizen science has a proven capability to generate reliable data and contribute to unexpected scientific discovery. ... -
Analysis of non-pharmaceutical interventions and their impacts on COVID-19 in Kerala
Goult, E.; Sathyendranath, S.; Kovac, Z.; Kong, C.E.; Stipanovic, P.; Anas, A.; Menon, Nandini; George, G.; Platt, T. (Nature Publishing Group, 2022)In the absence of an effective vaccine or drug therapy, non-pharmaceutical interventions are the only option for control of the outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019, a pandemic with global implications. Each of the ... -
Biological control of surface temperature in the Arabian Sea
Sathyendranath, S.; Gouveia, A.D.; Shetye, S.R.; Ravindran, P.; Platt, T. (Macmillan, 1991) -
Building Capacity and Resilience Against Diseases Transmitted via Water Under Climate Perturbations and Extreme Weather Stress
Sathyendranath, S.; Anas, A.; Menon, N.; George, G.; Evers-King, H.; Kulk, G.; Colwell, R.; Jutla, A.; Platt, T. (Springer, Cham, 2020)It is now generally accepted that climate variability and change, occurrences of extreme weather events, urbanisation and human pressures on the environment, and high mobility of human populations, all contribute to the ... -
Computation of aquatic primary production: Extended formalism to include effect of angular and spectral distribution of light
Sathyendranath, S.; Platt, T. (American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 1989)With a new spectral model of the underwater light field and an extended formalism for the light-saturation curve, it is shown that the angular distribution of-underwater light has to be considered to account correctly for ... -
Distribution and antibiotic resistance of vibrio population in an urbanized tropical lake-the Vembanad-in the southwest coast of India
Anas, A.; Hridya, K.V.; Devika, Raj; Menon, Nandini; George, G.; Reshma, Soman; Deepulal, P.M.; Ann, Mary; Kiran, K.; Gireeshkumar, T.R.; Sreelakshmi, P.K.; Tharakan, B.; Jasmin, C.; Platt, T.; Sathyendranath, S. (Springer, 2023)Among the diverse Vibrio spp. autochthonous to coastal ecosystems, V. cholerae, V. fluvialis, V. vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus are pathogenic to humans. Increasing sea-surface temperature, sea-level rise and water-related ... -
Dynamics of Vibrio cholerae in a Typical Tropical Lake and Estuarine System: Potential of Remote Sensing for Risk Mapping
Anas, A.; Kiran, K.; Syamkumar, V.; George, G.; Menon, Nandini; Kulk, G.; Jasmin, C.; Ciambelli, A.; Hridya, K.V.; Balu, T.; Jaleel, A.K.U.; Goult, E.; Jithin, V.; Platt, T.; Sathyendranath, S. (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) ... -
Environmental Reservoirs of Vibrio cholerae: Challenges and Opportunities for Ocean-Color Remote Sensing
Racault, M.-F.; Anas, A.; George, G.; Menon, N.; Jasmin, C.; Minu, P.; McConville, K.; Loveday, B.; Platt, T.; Sathyendranath, S.; Vijitha, V. (MDPI AG, 2019)The World Health Organization has estimated the burden of the on-going pandemic of cholera at 1.3 to 4 million cases per year worldwide in 2016, and a doubling of case-fatality-rate to 1.8% in 2016 from 0.8% in 2015. The ... -
Nutrient control of phytoplankton photosynthesis in the western north Atlantic
Platt, T.; Sathyendranath, S.; Ulloa, O.; Harrison, W.G.; Hoepffner, N.; Goes, J.I. (Nature, 1992) -
Ocean primary production and available light: Further algorithms for remote sensing
Platt, T.; Sathyendranath, S.; Caverhill, C.M.; Lewis, M.R. (Elsevier, 1988)In the context of remote sensing of the ocean, the general problem of estimating water column production from surface irradiance and column chlorophyll concentration is examined, and some refinements are made to the linear ... -
Remote sensing of oceanic primary production: Computations using a spectral model
Sathyendranath, S.; Platt, T.; Caverhill, C.M.; Warnock, R.E.; Lewis, M.R. (Elsevier, 1989)A spectral model of underwater irradiance is coupled with a spectral version of the photosynthesis-light relationship to compute oceanic primary production. The results are shown to be significantly different from those ... -
