Picophytoplankton community dynamics in a tropical river estuary and adjacent semi-enclosed water body
(Springer, 2021)
The dynamics of picophytoplankton, a vital component of the aquatic microbial food web, are least explored in the river-dominated estuaries, especially those subjected to human modifications that can alter the hydrodynamics ...
Seasonal and tidal variations in suspended particulate matter dynamics of two microtidal rivers of Karnataka, central west-coast of India
(Springer, 2021)
The concentrations of suspended particulate matter (SPM) and particulate organic carbon (POC), particulate total nitrogen (PTN) of SPM, and sediments were studied in two microtidal rivers of Karnataka (Nethravati and ...
Response of ocean surface waves to the co-occurrence of Boreal Summer Intra-Seasonal Oscillation and El Nino Southern Oscillation
(Springer, 2021)
Studies related to the combined effect of different atmospheric oscillations on the ocean surface waves are limited. The present study focuses on the change in wave climatology due to the combined effect of Boreal Summer ...
Marine macrobenthos of NorthWest India-Reviewing the known and unknown
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021)
Tropical ecosystems sustain higher biodiversity and face faster species extinction. However, baseline information of these areas is either inadequate or scattered due to various reasons. The 2,360 km long coast of North ...
Episodic recycling of ancient metasomatized continental lithosphere: Evidence from lower oceanic crust of the Central Indian Ridge
(Elsevier, 2021)
The tectonic and magmatic processes contributing to the heterogeneous nature of the upper mantle posit important constraints on the composition and differentiation of the Earth at various scales. Mid-oceanic ridges of ...
Refertilization of mantle peridotites from the Central Indian Ridge: Response to a geodynamic transition
(Geological Society of America- GeoScienceWorld, 2021)
The phenomena of reactive percolation of enriched asthenospheric melts and pervasive melt-rock interactions at mid oceanic ridge-rift systems are the principal proponents for mantle refertilization and compositional ...
Allelopathic interaction among rocky intertidal invertebrates: sponge Cinachyrella cf. cavernosa and Zooxanthellate zoanthids Zoanthus sansibaricus
(Springer, 2021)
Intertidal sessile invertebrates experience tough competition for space which they avoid by releasing secondary metabolites (allelochemicals). We investigated the allelopathic interaction between sponge Cinachyrella cf. ...
Potential mechanisms responsible for spatial variability in intensity and thickness of oxygen minimum zone in the Bay of Bengal
(AGU Wiley, 2021)
Spatial variability in boundaries and thickness of oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) is derived based on measured dissolved oxygen data obtained from sensors on board biogeochemical (BGC) Argo floats between 2013 and 2019 in the ...
Seismotectonic evaluation of off Nicobar earthquake swarms, Andaman Sea
(Elsevier, 2021)
The Andaman Sea has experienced a number of earthquake swarms as a result of complex tectonics arising from oblique subduction, active volcanic arc, the backarc spreading center, and sliver fault systems. One of the most ...
Advances in photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy
(Elsevier, 2021)
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT) combine light and photosensitizers to treat cancers and microbial infections, respectively. In PACT, the excitation of a photosensitizer drug ...
