Observed current variability in Gulf of Mannar
(Springer, 2021)
We present current data from an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) moored on the continental shelf-break in the Gulf of Mannar (GoM) near Ram Setu during 2010-2011. The observations show that the near-surface, ...
Microplastics in zooplankton in the eastern Arabian Sea: The threats they pose to fish and corals favoured by coastal currents
(Elsevier, 2021)
The baseline study of Microplastics (MPs) in zooplankton (copepods, chaetognaths, decapods, and fish larvae) from six different zones along India's west coast (off Kanyakumari/Cape Comorin, Kochi, Mangalore, Goa, Mumbai, ...
Phytoplankton dynamics in a seasonal stratified reservoir (Tillari), Western India
(EDP Sciences, 2021)
Phytoplankton are the primary producers in all the aquatic ecosystems and play an important role in key biogeochemical processes that are linked to the higher trophic levels and climate variability. The present study deals ...
Artificial intelligence approaches for spatial prediction of landslides in mountainous regions of western India
(Springer, 2021)
The prediction of landslide is a complex task but preparing the landslide susceptibility map through artificial intelligence approaches can reduce life loss and damages resulting from landslides. The purpose of this study ...
Why the Gulf of Mannar is a marine biological paradise?
(Springer, 2021)
The Gulf of Mannar (GoM), located between India and Sri Lanka, has astonishing faunal richness and diversity. Two oceanographic data sets supplemented with satellite remote sensing observations are discussed here to show ...
Influence of hydrological factors on bacterial community structure in a tropical monsoonal estuary in India
(Springer, 2021)
In the present study, we analyzed variations in bacterial community structure along a salinity gradient in a tropical monsoonal estuary (Cochin estuary [CE]), on the southwest coast of India, using Illumina next-generation ...
Xylanolytic enzyme consortia from Bacillus sp. NIORKP76 for improved biobleaching of kraft pulp
(Springer, 2021)
A cellulase-free xylanolytic enzyme consortia consisting of a xylanase, arabinofuranosidase, and acetyl xylan esterase produced by Bacillus sp. NIORKP76 isolate under solid-state fermentation was assessed for its bio-bleaching ...
A study on loops and eddies identified from the trajectories of drifters in the North Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2021)
We identify loops and eddies from the trajectories of the drifters in the North Indian Ocean (NIO) from October 1985 to March 2019. We use the geometric identification method to identify loops and eddies and compare them ...
Nutritional value of seaweeds and their potential to serve as nutraceutical supplements
(Taylor & Francis, 2021)
Seaweeds are marine autotrophic organisms with numerous bioactive compounds of interest. Several seaweed products are available in the form of food or medicine due to their myriad beneficial biomolecules like anti-diabetic, ...
Ocean Acidification Triggers Cell Signaling, Suppress Immune and Calcification in the Pacific Oyster Larvae
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021)
Elevated carbon dioxide levels in ocean waters, an anthropogenic stressor, can alter the chemical equilibrium of seawater through a process called ocean acidification (OA). The resultant reduction of pH can be detrimental ...
