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 ...
Spatial Variability of Mud Bank along the Southwest Coast of India and Its Impacts
(Springer, 2022)
The mud bank at Alleppey along the southwest coast of India is a persistent one that forms in June and dissipates by September during the southwest monsoon (SWM).A calm patch of turbid water with a thick fluid mud at the ...
Dynamics of trace metals in sediments of a seasonally hypoxic coastal zone in the southeastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2022)
This study examined the effect of water column hypoxia on the distribution and geochemical fractionation of trace metals in the seasonally hypoxic coastal environment in the southeastern Arabian Sea.Water and surface ...
The equatorial Indian Ocean upper water-column structure influenced by cross-basinal water exchange over the last ~40000 years
(Elsevier, 2022)
The central equatorial Indian Ocean (CEIO) is influenced by both, summer and winter monsoon and is known for cross basin exchange of water between the Arabian Sea (AS) and the Bay of Bengal (BoB).Here, we present planktic ...
Dissolved and particulate iron redox speciation during the LOHAFEX fertilization experiment
(Elsevier, 2022)
The redox speciation of iron was determined during the iron fertilization LOHAFEX and for the first time, the chemiluminescence assay of filtered and unfiltered samples was systematically compared.We hypothesize that higher ...
Enhanced Atmospheric Pollutants Strengthened Winter Convective Mixing and Phytoplankton Blooms in the Northern Arabian Sea
(Wiley, 2022)
The recent increase in atmospheric pollutants (aerosols) over the northern Indian Ocean due to an increase in industrial activity in South and Southeast Asia decreased air temperature (AT) leading to the strengthening of ...
Benthic community resilience in two differently impacted tropical estuaries: Taxonomic vs functional approaches
(Elsevier, 2022)
Estuaries experience incessant modifications due to various stressors causing shifts in the benthic species community structure and ecosystem functioning.Two tropical estuaries along Northwest India, exposed to varied ...
Bloom report of Noctiluca scintillans, Gymnodinium wulfii and Guinardia delicatula from Shastri Estuary, West Coast of India
(Elsevier, 2022)
The present study reports the concurrent blooms of Noctiluca scintillans, Gymnodinium wulfii and Guinardia delicatula from Shastri Estuary.The bloom of Gymnodinium wulfii is reported for the first time from the west coast ...
