Surface circulation off Somalia and western equatorial Indian Ocean during summer monsoon of 1988 from Geosat altimeter data
(Taylor and Francis, 1996)
The sea level variability derived from repeating tracks of the Geosat altimeter data during the late phase (August-September) of the summer monsoon of 1988 revealed the presence of multiple meso-scale eddy features with ...
Predicting monsoon rainfall and pressure indices from sea surface temperature
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, 1997)
The relationship between the sea surface temperature (SST) in the Indian Ocean and monsoon rainfall has been examined by using 21 years data set (1967-87) of MOHSST.6 (Met. Office Historical Sea Surface Temperature data ...
Current trends of some organochlorinated pesticides in Yamuna River sediments around Delhi
(Kanuj Envirotech Pvt Ltd., New Delhi, 1999)
Organochlorinated pesticides viz. DDTs, HCHs, and Cyclodiene compounds have been detected in the sediment samples of Yamuna River around Delhi, India during the three seasons namely pre-monsoon, monsoon and post-monsoon. ...
A review on Holocene climate changes in Indian subcontinent
(Geological Society of India, 1999)
Since the collision of Indian plate with Eurasia, the Indian subcontinent has experienced minor tectonic and major climatic changes. Summer monsoon plays an important role in the local and regional climate of Asia. General ...
The oxygen minimum zone in the Arabian Sea during 1995
(Pergamon, 1999)
This paper focuses on the characteristics of the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) as observed in the Arabian Sea over the complete monsoon cycle of 1995. Dissolved oxygen, nitrite, nitrate and density values are used to delineate ...
Quaternary radiolarian faunal changes in the tropical Indian Ocean: Inferences to paleomonsoonal oscillation of the 10 degrees S hydrographic front
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, 1997)
The northern Indian Ocean is characterized by three distinct surface water masses, i.e. (1) highly saline (greater than 34.5 ppt) Arabian Sea, (2) low saline (less than 34.5 ppt) Bay of Bengal and (3) a moderate salinity ...
Dissolved aluminium in the surface microlayer of the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1993)
Measurements of dissolved aluminium (Al) in surface microlayer (SML) samples from the eastern Arabian Sea during the southwest (summer) and northwast (winter) monsoon periods have revealed much higher concentrations (23-657 ...
Variability of the oceanic boundary layer characteristics in the Northern Bay of Bengal during MONTBLEX-90
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, India, 1996)
Variability of the ocean surface boundary layer characteristics on daily time-scale is studied utilizing the 3-hourly hydrographic data collected at a stationary location (20 degrees N, 89 degrees E) in the Bay of Bengal ...
Seasonal changes in suspended particulate component in Bombay High oil field (Arabian Sea)
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)
Investigation on the influence of seasonal changes in physico-chemical factors on particulate matter in the "Bombay High" region from February'85 to January'86 suggests that dominance of physical factors in monsoon largely ...
Seasonal fluctuation in the distribution of eggs and larvae of flat fishes (Pleuronectiformes - Pisces) in the Cochin Backwater
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1993)
Attempts have been made to correlate the abundance of eggs and larvae of flat fishes belonging to families Cynoglossidae and Soleidae with the hydrographical parameters of the environment, particularly the salinity. The ...
