Biofouling: A predominant marine problem
(National Inst. of Oceanography (CSIR); India, 2009)
Influence of northeasterly trade winds on intensity of winter bloom in the northern Arabian Sea
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Chlorophyll and wind pattern retrieved from remote sensing data have been used to study biological activity in the oceanic waters of Northern Arabian Sea (NAS) during February–March 2002–05. Occurrence of algal bloom in ...
Two selective novel triterpene glycosides from sea cucumber, Telenata ananas: Inhibitors of chemokine receptor-5
(Pergamon, 2002)
The aqueous methanolic extract of a sea cucumber was found to contain two triterpene glycosides 1 and 2. The structures of 1 and 2 were established based on high-resolution NMR studies. Compounds 1 and 2 exhibited inhibitory ...
Time-dependence of salinity in monsoonal estuaries
(Elsevier, 2009)
The theories and classification schemes commonly used for understanding estuarine dynamics often refer to a steady state of the estuary in which the salinity field is time-independent. In this state salinity-ingress into ...
Enhanced production of polyunsaturated fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid by thraustochytrid protists
(Springer, 2004)
The polyunsaturated fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an important requirement in the human diet. It is also essential in the nutrition of crustaceans and aquaculture animals. Of the sources available for commercial ...
Evidences for seawater-rock hydrothermal interaction in the serpentinites from Northern Central Indian Ridge
(Current Science Association, 2009)
Serpentinites and serpentinized harzburgites were collected from a ridge-transform intersection at 6 ddgrees 39 minutes S-68 degrees 19 minutes E from the Northern Central Indian Ridge. The degree of serpentinization is ...
Biomarkers derived from heterolytic and homolytic cleavage of allylic hydroperoxides resulting from alkenone autoxidation
(Elsevier, 2007)
Laboratory incubation of alkenone mixtures with tert-butyl hydroperoxide and di-tert-butyl nitroxide (radical initiator) in hexane, as a means to simulate alkenone autoxidation processes, rapidly led to the formation of ...
Long-range forecast of monthly rainfall over India during summer monsoon season using SST in the north Indian Ocean
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Long-range forecasting of summer monsoon rainfall was reported through linear models by Delsole and Shukla3. They showed that minimum number of predictors are sufficient for accurate forecasts. Recent studies4,5 reported ...
Rare-earth elements and uranium in phosphatic nodules from the continental margins of India
(Society for Sedimentary Geology (SEPM), Tulsa, USA, 2000)
A sediment core collected from a bathymetric high off Goa on the western continental margin of India has yielded phosphatic nodules at various subsurface depths (at 110, 150, 305 355, 435, 500, 505 and 525 cm). The nodules ...
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 ...
