Delta sup(14)C, sigma CO sub(2) salinity of the western Indian Ocean deep waters: Spatial and temporal variations
(American Geophysical Union, 1999)Indian Ocean Deep waters (IDW) show an increase in salinity and sigma CO sub(2) between 64 degrees S and 16 plus or minus 4 degrees N by 0.106-0.110 ppt and 82-104 mu M kg sup(-1) respectively with a corresponding decrease ... -
Effect of temperature, salinity and biofilm on the zoospores settlement of Enteromorpha flexuosa (Wulfen) J.Agardh
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2012)The effect of temperature (10-30 degrees C), salinity (15-35 psu) and biofilm on the settlement of Enteromorpha flexousa zoospores was assessed. Settlement of zoospores was significantly (p less than 0.05) influenced by ... -
Enhanced biological production in the southeastern Arabian Sea during spring intermonsoon
(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 ... -
Features at some significant estuaries of India
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 2001)The river basins of India are classified into three groups on the basis of catchment areas: (1) above 20,000 km sup(2), (2) 2,000-20,000 km sup(2) and (3) less than 2,000 km sup(2). The total number of rivers under first ... -
Fractionation and fragmentation of glass cosmic spherules during atmospheric entry
(Elsevier, 2012)Glass cosmic spherules are a sub-type of S-type cosmic spherules that are almost at the end phase of fractionation and volatilization during atmospheric entry. A focused investigation of 36 glass spherules out of several ... -
Gyres in the NW Bay of Bengal - Some observed evidences
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)Continuous observations of temperature, salinity and the flow at 4 stations off the rivers of Krishna, Godavari, Mahanadi and off New Moore Island, along the east coast of India, were made prior to the onset of the SW ... -
High-resolution gulf water skin temperature estimation using TIR/ASTER
(Excel India Publishers, 2012)Advanced Space-borne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) is the highest-resolution multi-spectral thermal infrared (TIR) sensor currently available on a polar-orbiting spacecraft which allows surface temperature ... -
Hydrochemical studies along the coastal waters off Mangalore
(Environmedia, 1998)Environmental parameters such as temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, BOD pH, nutrients suspended load and chlorophyll 'a' were estimated in the coastal waters of Mangalore. Four transects, each consisting of four ... -
Hydrography and circulation in the western Bay of Bengal during the northeast monsoon
(American Geophysical Union, 1996)The Bay of Bengal, a semienclosed tropical basin that comes under the influence of monsoonal wind and freshwater influx, is distinguished by a strongly stratified surface layer and a seasonally reversing circulation. We ... -
Hydrography and circulation of the Bay of Bengal during early winter, 1983
(Pergamon, 1993)The large-scale circulation and the distributions of temperature, salinity and density in the Bay of Bengal during early winter (October-December 1983) are presented. The surface circulation relative to 1000 db level surface ... -
Hydrophysical manifestations of the Indian ocean tsunami
(Taylor and Francis, 2007)The horrendous destruction caused by the tsunami waves due to the earthquake in the west coast of northern Sumatra (3.307 degrees N; 95.947 degrees E) at 30 km depth with a magnitude of 9.3 on Richter scale at 00.59 UTC ... -
Impact of temperature inversions on SST evolution in the South-Eastern Arabian Sea during the pre-summer monsoon season
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)Temperature inversions are known to occur in the near-surface ocean regime where salinity stratification is large enough to influence the density field. However, they have not been known as features that alter near-surface ... -
