Factors structuring spatio-temporal dynamics of macrobenthic communities of three differently modified tropical estuaries
(2020)
Tropical estuaries of industrialized northwest coast of India, subject to seasonal and multifarious anthropogenic interventions, are poorly studied. Three estuaries, Ulhas, Amba and Savitri were investigated seasonally to ...
Ecology and distribution of tanaids in a large tropical estuary along the Southwest Coast of India
(2020)
The crustacean order Tanaidacea consists of macrobenthic invertebrates, which constitute a major food source for higher trophic levels in estuarine and marine environments. Based on seasonal sampling in the Kochi Backwaters ...
Increased Ventilation of the Northern Indian Ocean during the Last Deglaciation
(Springer, 2020)
This paper gives an overview of the deep-water ventilation studies carried out over the world oceans using radiocarbon. There is a consensus that aged water mass existing in the abyssal ocean during the last glacial, ...
A new species of the genus Corynophrya (Ciliophora: Suctorea) from the west coast of India, Arabian Sea
(CNRS - Station Biologique de Roscoff - ABiMS, Roscoff, France, 2020)
The article presents the description of a new species of the suctorian genus Corynophrya inhabiting the body surface (cuticle) of harpacticoid copepod from the west coast of India, Arabian Sea. The diagnosis of the genus ...
Spatial and temporal variability in concentration and characteristics of aerosols at Visakhapatnam (east) and Goa (west) coasts of India
(2020)
Knowledge on the variability in quantity and compositions of various size groups of aerosols is important to understand their sources and their role in biogeochemical and climate processes. Here, we studied total suspended ...
Spatial variations in dissolved inorganic nutrients in the groundwaters along the Indian coast and their export to adjacent coastal waters
(Springer, 2021)
Submarine Groundwater Discharge (SGD) is one of the main external nutrient sources to the coastal waters. The concentrations of nutrients in groundwaters are a few folds higher than that of adjacent coastal waters; therefore, ...
Short term response of plankton community to nutrient enrichment in central eastern Arabian Sea: Elucidation through mesocosm experiments
(Elsevier, 2021)
Oligotrophic waters (OW), generally favour longer food chain facilitated by the microbial loop. In such ecosystems, physical mixing (e.g. upwelling, and winter convection) inject nutrients and propagules from subsurface ...
Response of coastal phytoplankton to upwelling induced hydrological changes in the Alappuzha mud bank region, southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)
The response of phytoplankton community to the co-existing events of coastal upwelling and mud banks in the nearshore waters of Alappuzha (15 m depth), located in the southwest coast of India from April to November 2016, ...
Species substitutions revealed through genotyping: Implications of traceability limitations and unregulated fishing
(Elsevier, 2021)
Trade flow of fisheries sector is very complex with several intermediaries and it is difficult to trace back the origin of a seafood commodity. Thus, traceability limitations could cause safety and quality issues in the ...
Chemical Investigation of Marine-Derived Fungus Aspergillus flavipes for Potential Anti-Inflammatory Agents
(John Wiley and Sons, Ltd, 2021)
The marine fungus, Aspergillus flavipes (MTCC 5220), was isolated from the pneumatophore of a mangrove plant Acanthus ilicifolius found in Goa, India. The crude extract of A. flavipes was found to show anti-inflammatory ...
