Significance of metabolically active bacterioplankton in the frontal regions of the Northeastern Arabian Sea
(Springer International Publishing, 2018)
The Northeastern Arabian Sea (NEAS) experiences convective mixing during winter monsoon, which facilitates nutrient enrichment in the surface layers. This region is also known to harbour several sea surface temperature ...
CHEMTAX-derived phytoplankton community structure associated with temperature fronts in the northeastern Arabian Sea..
(Elsevier, 2015)
Remotely sensed sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll associated with fronts and filaments are used in India to generate potential fishing zone (PFZ) advisories in the north eastern Arabian Sea (NEAS). However, ...
Mumbai harbour, India: Gateway for introduction of marine organisms
(Springer, 2010)
Ships have been identified as one of the important vectors in the translocation of organisms from one bioregion to another leading to bioinvasion. In this context, harbours serve as a gateway for the introduction of alien ...
Synechococcus as an indicator of trophic status in the Cochin backwaters, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2015)
Eutrophication is a major problem in coastal water bodies. Information about the trophic status of water bodies will enable proper management of coastal ecosystems. In this regard, biological organisms which are sensitive ...
Efficiency of copper and cupronickel substratum to resist development of diatom biofilms
(Elsevier, 2015)
This study on the population dynamics of fouling diatoms from a biofouling rich monsoon influenced tropical bay revealed that irrespective of the season and exposure period, the highest diatom abundance and species were ...
Characterization of Bacteria in Ballast Water Using MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry
(Public Library of Science, 2012)
To evaluate a rapid and cost-effective method for monitoring bacteria in ballast water, several marine bacterial isolates were characterized by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry ...
Global concerns of ship`s ballast water mediated translocation of bacteria
(Springer and Business Media, 2017)
Shipping facilitates transportation of over 90% of the world’s commodities and eventually transfers ~10 billion tons of ballast water which is routinely taken aboard vessels to maintain their stability. The ballast water ...
Influence of short-term hydrographic variations during the north-east monsoon on picophytoplankton community structure in the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2017)
The eastern Arabian Sea over the continental margin is a dynamic region subjected to short-term variability in hydrography as a result of various physical forcing such as coastal advection and vertical mixing. In order to ...
Changes in the abundance and composition of zooplankton from the ports of Mumbai, India
(Springer, 2010)
Zooplankton abundance, biomass, and composition from the ports of Mumbai, India, were studied by selecting 14 stations in and around the area during three different periods between 2001 and 2002 (Nov 01, Apr 02, and Oct ...
The effect of bacteria on diatom community structure - The 'antibiotics' approach
(Elsevier, 2011)
To investigate the effect of bacteria on diatoms at the community level, sediment samples from an intertidal tropical environment were treated with penicillin (a Beta-lactam antibiotic that can affect diatoms only through ...
