Biochemical responses of oysters in evaluating environmental quality of tropical Indian estuarine systems
(Elsevier, 2021)
Impact of varying concentrations and counts of toxic metals and indigenous bacteria on antioxidative defense system in edible oyster, Saccostrea cucullata, collected from four tropical estuarine systems of Goa (west coast ...
Phosphate removal through adsorption on suspended matter in the Bay of Bengal: Possible implications to primary production
(Springer, 2021)
Low primary production in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) could not be explained as this region receives nutrients from atmospheric deposition, rivers, eddies, and mixing due to depression/cyclones. In addition to nutrients, BoB ...
Microbial community shifts along an estuarine to open ocean continuum
(Elsevier, 2021)
The water bodies along a continuum from estuaries to open ocean display significant changes in their physical, chemical and biological characteristics. In the current study, we report the influence of such changes on the ...
Seasonal Variation in Chemical Composition of Size-Segregated Aerosols Over the Northeastern Arabian Sea
(Frontiers Media�, 2021)
Water-soluble species constitute a significant fraction (up to 60-70%) of the total aerosol loading in the marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL). The �indirect� effects, that is, climate forcing due to modification of ...
Multiple Ecological Parameters Affect Living Benthic Foraminifera in the River-Influenced West-Central Bay of Bengal
(Frontiers Media SA, 2021)
The huge riverine influx and associated processes decrease the ambient salinity, stratify the water column, modulate the oxygen-deficient zone, and are also responsible for the recent acidification in the Bay of Bengal. ...
Chemical composition, nutritive value and health benefits of edible clam Meretrix casta (Chemnitz) from West Coast of India
(Springer, 2021)
The present study was undertaken with a view to determine the nutraceutical value of the commonly consumed edible clam, Meretrix casta (Chemnitz), based on the identification of its organic chemical constituents particularly ...
Long-term variability of Sea Surface Temperature in the Tropical Indian Ocean in relation to climate change and variability
(Elsevier, 2021)
The long-term change in the sea surface temperature (SST) of the Tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) and the underlying mechanisms are examined in detail by analysing multiple reanalysis datasets and historical simulations of a ...
Phycosphere associated bacteria- A prospective source of bioactive compounds
(Springer, 2021)
Co-occurrence of bacteria and algae can be traced back to billions of years ago. Their coexistence for more than 200 million years in common habitat has fostered a multitude of promising interactions among these two groups ...
Histopathological investigation of the reef coral Goniastrea sp. affected by macroalgal abrasion
(Springer, 2021)
Interspecific competition between corals and macroalgae is a common phenomenon on coral reefs, and its impacts on the cellular structure of corals are not well studied. Field observations in Gulf of Mannar Marine National ...
Widespread fluorescence in terrestrial and marine samples investigated from India
(Elsevier, 2021)
The discovery of green fluorescent protein (GFP) from jellyfish Aequorea victoria has provoked numerous studies to unveil the myriads of biomedical applications. Consequently, several studies also revealed the prevalence ...
