Long-range global transport and characterization of dust
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2021)
Aerosols are tiny-suspended particles in the Earth�s atmosphere, which have the potential to modify atmospheric radiative forcing, cloud properties, and atmospheric chemistry. Aerosols are transported from one part of the ...
pH variability off Goa (eastern Arabian Sea) and the response of sea urchin to ocean acidification scenarios
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2020)
The increasing atmospheric CO2 concentration in the last few decades has resulted in a decrease in oceanic pH. In this study, we assessed the natural variability of pH in coastal waters off Goa, eastern Arabian Sea. pHT ...
First record of Norileca indica (H. Milne-Edwards, 1840) (Crustacea: Isopoda: Cymothoidae) in Rastrelliger kanagurta from Goa, India
(Marine Biological Association of India, 2020)
This study reports the occurrence of the parasitic isopod, Norileca indica, below the intestinal tract of Indian mackerel, Rastrelliger kanagurta for the first time from Goa, India. These parasites cause adverse environmental ...
Functional and Structural Roles of the Major Facilitator Superfamily Bacterial Multidrug Efflux Pumps
(MDPI AG, 2020)
Pathogenic microorganisms that are multidrug-resistant can pose severe clinical and public health concerns. In particular, bacterial multidrug efflux transporters of the major facilitator superfamily constitute a notable ...
Mass mortality of gorgonians: A catastrophic phenomena in the marine national park and sanctuary, Gulf of Kachchh, India
(NIScPR-CSIR, India, 2021)
This study records the mass mortality of gorgonids, a Schedule I species at the Mundeka Island, Gulf of Kachchh, marine national park and sanctuary. This event coincided with unusually heavy rains and storm surge associated ...
Benthic exchange along a tropical estuarine salinity gradient during dry season: Biogeochemical and ecological implications
(Elsevier, 2021)
Benthic biogeochemistry and its coupling with pelagic ecology are less understood in tropical than in temperate estuaries, which have significant implications for global carbon and nutrient cycling. In dry season, the ...
Mixotrophic plankton and Synechococcus distribution in waters around Svalbard, Norway during June 2019
(Elsevier, 2021)
In order to understand the influence of summer conditions (extended daylight, warmer temperature, increased meltwater, increased suspended load and nutrient chemistry) on the distribution of phytoplankton (diatoms & ...
The world's largest coastal deoxygenation zone is not anthropogenically driven
(IOP Publishing, 2021)
The growing number of oxygen-deficient coastal zones around the world and their impacts on marine life has always been a controversial issue as their development is largely attributed to anthropogenic activities which can ...
Morphological description and molecular characterisation of green aggregating sea anemone, Anthopleura elegantissima (Brandt, 1835) (Cnidaria: Anthozoa) from southwest coast of India
(MBAI, Marine Biological Association of India, 2021)
Green aggregating sea anemone, Anthopleura elegantissima (Brandt 1835) is found in the intertidal region of Thirumullavaram (Lat. 8°89’53“N, Long. 76°55.61”E), southwest coast of India. During the survey, individuals of ...
First barcodes of Bathynomus kensleyi (Lowry and Dempsey, 2006) and Bathynomus decemspinosus (Shih, 1972) from the Southeast coast of India
(Elsevier, 2020)
Due to their large size, bathynomids (Crustacea, Isopoda, Cirolanidae), belonging to the �supergiant group� of isopods, have long been prominent. The distribution of giant isopods from inshore to deep-sea environments has ...
