Enhanced biological production in the southeastern Arabian Sea during spring intermonsoon
Laluraj, C.M.; Balachandran, K.K.; Sabu, P. (Italian Association of Oceanography and Limnology, 2012)Hydrographic observations in the southeastern Arabian Sea (SEAS) have identified a warm (over 30 degrees C) and stratified water mass (stability more than 5x10 sup(-5) m sup(-1)) along the near shore area between 10 degrees ... -
Intrusion of the Bay of Bengal water into the Arabian Sea during winter monsoon and associated chemical and biological response
PrasannaKumar, S.; Narvekar, J.; Kumar, A.; Shaji, C.; Anand, P.; Sabu, P.; Rijomon, G.; Josia, J.; Jayaraj, K.A.; Radhika, A.; Nair, K.K.C. (American Geophysical Union, 2004)Situated in similar latitudes and subjected to similar atmospheric forcing, the tropical basins of the Arabian Sea looses fresh water due to excess evaporation over precipitation while Bay of Bengal receives freshwater via ... -
Mixed layer processes of the Arabian Sea Warm Pool during spring intermonsoon: a study based on observational and satellite data
Sabu, P.; Revichandran, C. (Taylor & Francis, 2011)The relative importance and contribution of various processes in the total heat budget in the mixed layer of the Arabian Sea Warm Pool (ASWP) during spring intermonsoon (March–April 2004) were studied using in situ ... -
Nutrient biogeochemistry of the eastern Arabian Sea during the southwest monsoon retreat
George, R.; Muraleedharan, K.R.; Martin, G.D.; Sabu, P.; Gerson, V.J.; DineshKumar, P.K.; Nair, S.M.; Chandramohanakumar, N.; Nair, K.K.C. (Springer, 2013)Hydrography of the eastern Arabian Sea and associated chemical and biological responses were studied during the withdrawal phase of summer monsoon 2003. The shelf region off the southwest coast of India (10 degrees N-15 ... -
Planktonic food web structure at SSTF and PF in the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean during austral summer 2011
Pillai, H.U.K.; Anilkumar, N.; Achuthankutty, C.T.; Mendes, C.R.; Sabu, P.; Jayalakshmy, K.V.; AshaDevi, C.R.; Dessai, D.; George, J.; Pavithran, S.; Haridevi, C.K.; Tripathy, S.C.; Menon, N.R. (2018)This study aims to describe the planktonic food web structure with respect to phytoplankton biomass (chlorophyll a) and prevailing environmental conditions at the South Subtropical Front (SSTF) and the Polar Front (PF) in ... -
Red tide of Noctiluca miliaris off south of Thiruvananthapuram subsequent to the ‘stench event’ at the southern Kerala coast
Sahayak, S.; Jyothibabu, R.; Jayalakshmi, K.J.; Habeebrehman, H.; Sabu, P.; Prabhakaran, M.P.; Jasmine, P.; Shaiju, P.; Rejomon, G.; Threslamma, J.; Nair, K.K.C. (Indian Academy of Sciences, 2005)'Red tides' refer to the discoloration of the ocean surface caused by the blooming of some planktonic organisms. A few species of dinoflagellates (a group of protists) periodically form red tides along the west coast of ... -
Seasonal variations and trophic ecology of microzooplankton in the southeastern Arabian Sea
AshaDevi, C.R.; Jyothibabu, R.; Sabu, P.; Jacob, J.; Habeebrehman, H.; Prabhakaran, M.P.; Jayalakshmi, K.J.; Achuthankutty, C.T. (Elsevier, 2010)The seasonal ecological response of microzooplankton in the southeastern Arabian Sea is presented. During the spring intermonsoon period, stratification and depletion of nitrate in the surface waters (nitracline was at 60 ... -
The response of microzooplankton (20-200 mu m) to coastal upwelling and summer stratification in the southeastern
Jyothibabu, R.; Devi, C.R.A.; Madhu, N.V.; Sabu, P.; Jayalakshmy, K.V.; Jacob, J.; Habeebrehman, H.; Prabhakaran, M.P.; Balasubramanian, T.; Nair, K.K.C. (Elsevier, 2008)During the late summer monsoon (LSM), coastal upwelling and river runoff have increased the nutrient concentration in the inshore region of the southeastern Arabian Sea. This has resulted in elevated chlorophyll-a (av. 40 ... -
Variability in biological responses influenced by upwelling events in the Eastern Arabian Sea
Habeebrehman, H.; Prabhakaran, M.P.; Jacob, J.; Sabu, P.; Jayalakshmi, K.J.; Achuthankutty, C.T.; Revichandran, C. (Elsevier, 2008)This study documents the result of field observations from the southeastern Arabian Sea during onset, peak and late phases of summer monsoon. The pronounced variations in phytoplankton standing stock (chlorophyll a), primary ...
