Occurrence of Gravity and Infra Gravity Waves in the Nearshore Region at Ratnagiri, West Coast of India
(Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2020)
This study analyses the sea level data measured simultaneously using S4DW and directional Wave Rider Buoy (WRB) off Ratnagiri, eastern Arabian Sea, located along the west coast of the Indian sub-continent. The objective ...
Effect of freshwater advection and winds on the vertical structure of chlorophyll in the northern Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2020)
The northern Bay of Bengal receives a large amount of fresh water through river runoff and rainfall during the Indian summer monsoon (June-September). This fresh water spreads offshore and can modulate the upper-ocean ...
Sources and implications of particulate organic matter from a small tropical river-Zuari River, India
(Springer Verlag, 2020)
Transitional ecosystems, estuaries and the coastal seas, are distinctively affected by natural and anthropogenic factors. Organic matter (OM) originating from terrestrial sources is exported by rivers and forms a key ...
Characterization of coral associated ciliates and their interactions with disease lesion progression of Indian Scleractinian corals
(Elsevier, 2020)
Ciliates associated with advanced diseased lesions of Acropora sp. and Porites sp. in the field were isolated and characterised using microscopic and molecular analysis. The identified dominant coral-associated ciliates ...
Sulfidization processes in seasonally hypoxic shelf sediments: A study off the West coast of India
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Continental shelves are the major sites for organic carbon burial and sulfate reduction. Organic carbon degradation and sulfidization along continental shelves are expected to play a significant role in global carbon-sulfur-iron ...
The Significance of Denitrification in the Nitrogen Cycle
(Cambridge Scholars Publishing, New castle, UK, 2020)
Nitrogen fluxes from marine systems to the atmosphere are between 25x10 9 and 179x10 9 kilograms per year and from terrestrial systems, between 90x10 9 and 243x10 9 kilograms per year via microbial denitrification. ...
Investigation of near-shore processes along North Goa beaches: A study based on field observations and numerical modelling
(Springer, 2021)
The dynamic coastal environment comprising of near-shore zone and beach continuously undergoes substantial morphological changes due to man-made and natural processes. These processes are always mutually dependent and ...
A Spatial Ecological Study Based on Benthic Foraminifera off Central West Coast of India: An Approach through Cluster Analysis with Special Reference to Oxygen Minimum Zone
(Springer, 2021)
Fifty-two surface samples collected from a depth range between 15 and 3300�m from the Vijaydurg-Karwar sector off the central west coast of India were analyzed for benthic foraminifera. A total of 386 benthic foraminifera ...
Explorations of lesser known old ports sites along the eastern Saurashtra Coast, Gujarat
(ISPQS- Indian Society for Prehistoric and Quarternary Studies, Pune, 2021)
Explorations were carried out along the shore from Khambhat to Jafrabad along the Saurashtra coast during the 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons. The main objective of these explorations was to locate ancient ports along this ...
Southwest monsoon-driven changes in the phytoplankton community structure in the central Arabian Sea (2017-2018): After two decades of JGOFS
(Elsevier, 2021)
The Arabian Sea, a land-locked low latitude high productive oceanic province, is characterized by strong seasonality due to the reversal of monsoon winds. "Open ocean upwelling" occurs during the southwest monsoon (SWM) ...
