Cyclone Hudhud-eddy induced phytoplankton bloom in the northern Bay of Bengal using a coupled model
(Elsevier, 2021)
The present study explored the role of the pre-existing cyclonic eddy on the chlorophyll-a (Chla) bloom after a cyclone pass over the northern Bay of Bengal (BoB). We used a high-resolution (~9 km) Regional Ocean Modeling ...
Characterization of archaeal symbionts of sponges from the coral reef ecosystems of the Gulf of Mannar, Southeast coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)
Sponges accommodate a diverse group of microorganisms with varied metabolic capabilities. The bacterial associates of sponges are widely studied while our understanding of archaeal counterparts is scanty. In the present ...
Ferromanganese oxide deposits: Geochemical and microbiological perspectives of interactions of cobalt and nickel
(Elsevier, 2021)
Bacterial participation in the formation of ferromanganese (Fe-Mn) mineral deposits is highly debated, as the precipitation of metals could occur by both chemical and biologically mediated mechanisms. Besides, the enrichment ...
Fate of MV Wakashio oil spill off Mauritius coast through modelling and remote sensing observations
(Elsevier, 2021)
This study aims at assessing the fate of MV Wakashio oil spill, and the driving forces responsible for possible environmental consequences of polluted coastal region. GNOME simulations were performed, considering various ...
Untangling the effect of organic matter and dissolved oxygen on living benthic foraminifera in the southeastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2021)
We studied the relationship between organic carbon in sediments (%Corg), bottom water dissolved oxygen and living benthic foraminifera in a marginal marine upwelling setting from the southeastern Arabian Sea to develop ...
Particulate organic matter dynamics and its isotopic signatures (?13CPOC and ?15NPN) in relation to physical forcing in the central Arabian Sea during SW monsoon (2017-2018)
(Elsevier, 2021)
Monsoonal changes in particulate organic matter (POM) and its isotopic signatures (?13CPOC and ?15NPN) were studied (Aug 2017 and 2018) in the central Arabian Sea (21-11�N 64�E) . A low-level atmospheric jet (Findlater ...
Implications of micro-plankton and micro-detritus on the food web in the largest monsoonal estuary along the west coast of India
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
This study presents how seasonal hydrographical changes affect the size structure of the micro-plankton community and thereby the availability of micro-detritus in the Kochi backwaters (KBW). Advanced quantification of ...
Biophysical implications of the freshwater influx over small spatial scale in the coastal waters along the southwest coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon
(Elsevier BV, 2021)
This study in the coastal waters off Kochi along the southwest coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon (SWM) presents the biophysical implications of freshwater influx over a small spatial scale. Field sampling was ...
Bio-Decolorization of Synthetic Dyes by a Halophilic Bacterium Salinivibrio sp.
(Frontiers, 2020)
Synthetic dyes, extensively used in various industries, act as pollutants in the aquatic environment, and pose a significant threat to living beings. In the present study, we assessed the potential of a halophilic bacterium ...
Distribution of size-fractionated phytoplankton biomass from the anthropogenically stressed tropical creek (Thane creek, India)
(Elsevier BV, 2021)
Size-based partitioning of phytoplankton biomass is a crucial determinant of the type of food web functioning in an aquatic ecosystem. Seasonal and spatial distribution of total as well as size-fractionated phytoplankton ...
