A compact self-recording pressure based sea level gauge suitable for deployments at harbour and offshore environments
(SYMPOL, 2001)A compact and lightweight self-recording pressure based sea level gauge has been designed to suit deployments from harbour and offshore environments. A novel hydraulic coupling device designed in-house was used to transfer ... -
A new record of marine wood-borer (Mollusca: Teredinidae) from waters off Bombay
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1986)The occurrence of Teredona princesae (Sivickis) has been reported for the first time from the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) off Bombay. A brief description of the pallet and distribution of this species is presented -
A note on the fouling hydroids from the offshore waters of Bombay
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1986)This short communication brings out the preliminary results of the studies on fouling hydroids from an offshore region of the Arabian sea. A total of ten species falling under four different families have been collected ... -
An early historic assemblage offshore of Godawaya, Sri Lanka: Evidence for early regional seafaring in South Asia.
(Springer, 2014)Investigations in 2010 by an international team of maritime archaeologists yielded a concentration of artefacts identified here by the authors as the remains of a shipwreck off the southern coastal village of Godawaya, Sri ... -
An intermediate nepheloid layer associated with high microbial metabolic rates and denitrification in the northwest Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 1993)Extensive optical, physical chemical, and biochemical measurements made simultaneously in the northwest Indian Ocean reveal the occurrence of an intermediate nepheloid layer (INL) invariably associated with the secondary ... -
BOD-DO modeling and water quality analysis of a waste water outfall off Kochi, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2006)Water quality scenarios around an offshore outfall off Kochi were simulated using MIKE21 water quality model, assuming a high Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD=50 mgl sup(-1)) effluent discharge. The discharge is introduced ... -
Characteristics of humic and fulvic acids in Arabian Sea sediments
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1995)Humic and fulvic acids isolated from some of the shelf, slope and offshore sediments of the Arabian Sea were studied. The molecular weight, functional groups, elemental composition and infrared spectra were examined. Humic ... -
Distribution of Urea in the Waters of the West Coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1980)Urea concentrations at the surface are high both in coastal and offshore waters in the region north of 15 degrees N (0.3-7.76 mu g at N/litre) and low in the region south of this latitude (0-1.5 mu g at N/litre). Vertical ... -
Elemental distributions in surficial sediments and potential offshore mineral resources from the western continental margin of India. Part 2. Potential offshore mineral resources
(NIO, Goa, India, 1994)The project entitled 'Geochemistry of sediments of the continental margins of India and deep sea regions' was initiated in 1976 and since then formed an important research activity of the Institute. The main objectives of ... -
Estimating the seaward extent of sea breeze from QuickSCAT scatterometry
(AGU, 2005)An objective method for quantifying the seaward extent of the sea breeze is presented. The underlying assumption is that the offshore decay in the strength of the sea breeze results in an offshore decay of the vector ... -
In vitro fertilization of banana prawn Penaeus merguiensis de Man
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1987)Successful in Vitro fertilization of the commercially important prawn, Penaeus merguiensis has been achieved. Suspensions of sperms and ova were mixed and agitated for five minutes. Healthy nauplii were observed on following ... -
Iodate in inshore and offshore waters of Central Bay of Bengal
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)Biological stripping of iodate in the surface waters is noticed in the inshore and offshore waters of Bay of Bengal. A good correlation is observed between iodate and phosphate and nitrate and the molar ratios determined ... -
Marine archaeological investigations along the Saurashtra coast, west coast of India
(Asiatic Society of Bangladesh, 2005)Utilization of the ocean resources on the Saurashtra coast is dating back to the Harappan period (3rd millennium BC) and evidences on the same have been recorded from various archaeological sites such as Lothal, Padri, ... -
Methane in coastal and offshore waters of the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2001)Measurements of methane (CH sub(4)) made during two surveys in the eastern and central Arabian Sea in April-May, 1996, and August-September, 1997, corresponding to late Spring Intermonsoon (SI) and Southwest Monsoon (SWM) ... -
Monsoon driven changes in phytoplankton populations in the eastern Arabian Sea as revealed by microscopy and HPLC pigment analysis
(Elsevier, 2006)Like the rest of the Arabian Sea, the west coast of India is subject to semi-annual wind reversals associated with the monsoon cycle that result in two periods of elevated phytoplankton productivity, one during the northeast ... -
Nearshore hydrography off Visakhapatnam, East coast of India, during winter
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)Based on hydrographic data and time series data of currents and temperature, the nearshore hydrographic structure during winter (November, 1981) has been studied to examine the possibility of discharging industrial effluents ... -
Occurrence and distribution of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Sakazaki et al) related organisms in the Laccadive Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)The occurrence and distribution of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and related organisms were studied from offshore water samples (Lat. 10 degrees N and Long. 65 degrees to 69 degrees E) collected at 5, 10, 50, 100, 200 and 500 m ... -
Occurrence and distribution of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and related organisms in the Arabian Sea
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1987)The occurrence and distribution of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and related organisms were studied from offshore water samples (Lat. 10 degrees N and Long. 65 degrees to 69 degrees E) collected at 5, 10, 50, 100, 200 and 500 m ... -
Occurrence of gas hydrates along the continental margins of India, particularly the Krishna-Godavari offshore basin
(Taylor and Francis, 2007)The presence of gas hydrates along the Indian continental margins has been inferred mainly from the bottom simulating reflection/reflector (BSR) and the gas hydrate stability zone thickness map of India. Multidisciplinary ... -
