Isolation and Identification of Tyrosinase Inhibitors from Marine Algae Enteromorpha sp
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2021)
The extract of marine green algae Enteromorpha sp. was evaluated in vitro for inhibitory activity against mushroom tyrosinase enzyme. The principle active agents i.e. coumarin; 4-hydroxycoumarin (1) and two sterols; ...
Wave crest height distribution during the tropical cyclone period
(2020)
The wave crest height plays a vital role in designing both the fixed and floating marine structures. The present study examines the measured wave crest data at 18 m water depth off Visakhapatnam in the northwestern Bay of ...
Evaluating the Bacterial Diversity from the Southwest Coast of India Using Fatty Acid Methyl Ester Profiles
(Springer, 2021)
The fatty acid composition of bacterial isolates remains stable under standardized culture conditions, which makes it a useful taxonomic marker. The present study aims to characterize the diversity and quantity of fatty ...
Variability of dissolved oxygen in the Arabian Sea Oxygen Minimum Zone and its driving mechanisms
(2020)
The Arabian Sea hosts one of the most intense, perennial Oxygen Minimum Zones (OMZ) in the world ocean. Observations along a meridional transect at 68°E extending from 8 to 21°N showed large seasonal as well as interannual ...
Large-scale mass wasting on the miocene continental margin of Western India
(Geological Society of America, 2020)
A giant mass-transport complex was recently discovered in the eastern Arabian Sea, exceeding in volume all but one other known complex on passive margins worldwide. The complex, named the Nataraja Slide, was drilled by ...
Abundance and characteristics of microplastics in commercially important bottom dwelling finfishes and shellfish of the Vembanad Lake, India
(Elsevier, 2021)
This paper characterize microplastics (MPs) in the heavily urbanized, brackish water Vembanad Lake (India), focussing on some commercially important bottom-feeding fishes and shellfish (Arius maculatus, Etroplus suratensis, ...
Acquisition of bioluminescent trait by non-luminous organisms from luminous organisms through various origins
(Springer Nature, 2021)
Bioluminescence is a natural light emitting phenomenon that occurs due to a chemical reaction between luciferin and luciferase. It is primarily an innate and inherited trait in most terrestrial luminous organisms. However, ...
A numerical investigation on the tide-induced residence time and its association with the suspended sediment concentration in Gulf of Khambhat, northern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
A 2D-numerical model is used to estimate suspended sediment (SS) transport and residence time (RT) of the Gulf of Khambhat (Gulf). Tidal current, as well as bottom topography, play a key role in sediment entrapment inside ...
Circulation in the Gulf of Khambhat - A Lagrangian Perspective
(2020)
The circulation of the Gulf of Khambhat (GoK) is studied from a Lagrangian point of view using a 2D numerical model. The model-predicted tide elevation and current speed are in agreement with the observations. Seasonal ...
Complete genome analysis of undecylprodigiosin pigment biosynthesizing marine streptomyces species displaying potential bioactive applications
(MDPI, 2021)
Marine Streptomyces species are underexplored for their pigment molecules and genes. In this study, we report the genome of the undecylprodigiosin biosynthesizing gene cluster carrying Streptomyces sp. strain BSE6.1, ...
