Preface to Special Section: Shipwrecks
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2019)
This is a preface to the the wide coverage of shipwrecks included in the special section of the Vol 117 Issue no 10 of �Current Science�. Leading underwater archaeologists provided the developments in hydro-archaeology in ...
Quantitative estimation of elemental composition employing a synthetic generated spectrum
(The Optical Society, USA, 2018)
Composition of multielement samples is estimated by using a synthetic generated spectrum utilizing a nonlinear fitting routine. By fitting simultaneously a large number of emission lines, the error in the estimation is ...
Tropical explosive volcanic eruptions can trigger El Ni�o by cooling tropical Africa
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
Stratospheric aerosols from large tropical explosive volcanic eruptions backscatter shortwave radiation and reduce the global mean surface temperature. Observations suggest that they also favour an El Ni�o within 2 years ...
Molecular characterization and phylogenetics of Indian polychaete fauna: scope for implementation in ecological monitoring
(2019)
DNA barcodes are increasingly applied to ascertain the taxonomic identification to improve the speed and accuracy of ecological monitoring programmes. The success of integrating molecular approach in routine surveys ...
Effect of pea crab Pinnotheres vicajii (Chhapgar, 1957) on immunocompetence of bivalve Paphia malabarica (Chemnitz, 1782)
(Elsevier, 2017)
The endosymbiont-host relationship between a pea crab and its bivalve host has been studied previously using bivalve�s multi-physiological parameters. The present study is first of its kind that uses hemocyte�s immune ...
S- and Sr-isotopic compositions in barite-silica chimney from the Franklin Seamount, Woodlark Basin, Papua New Guinea: constraints on genesis and temporal variability of hydrothermal fluid
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2017)
Isotopic ratios of strontium and sulfur in six layers across a horizontal section of a hydrothermal barite-silica chimney from Franklin Seamount of western Woodlark Basin have been investigated. Sr-isotopic ratios in barite ...
Global Carbon Cycling on a Heterogeneous Seafloor.
(Elsevier, 2018)
Diverse biological communities mediate the transformation, transport, and storage of elements fundamental to life on Earth, including carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen. However, global biogeochemical model outcomes can vary by ...
A zona incognita surrounds the secondary nitrite maximum in open-ocean oxygen minimum zones
(Elsevier, 2017)
An analytic gap exists between the lower limit of detection of oxygen (O2) by conventional sensors (LOD, ~1 - 3�M O2) and the appearance of NO2- from NO3- reduction (~0.05�M O2), which signifies the secondary nitrite ...
Picophytoplankton Synechococcus as food for nauplii of Amphibalanus amphitrite and Artemia salina
(2019)
The naupliar forms are important intermediaries between microbial and classical food web as they can efficiently graze on autotrophic picophytoplankton and heterotrophic bacteria in diverse aquatic ecosystems. Current ...
Seasonal and Interannual Variability in the Barrier Layer of the Bay of Bengal
(Wiley, 2018)
An objectively analyzed monthly gridded ocean analysis derived from a combination of satellite and in situ observations is used to describe the seasonal and interannual variability in the barrier layer thickness (BLT) over ...
