Intraseasonal meridional current variability in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 2008)
Intraseasonal variability in meridional current in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean is investigated by use of results from a high-resolution ocean general circulation model. Both the simulated and observed meridional ...
Brevibacterium oceanic sp. nov., isolated from deep-sea sediment of the Chagos Trench, Indian Ocean
(The Society for General Microbiology, 2008)
Two bacterial strains, designated BBH5 and BBH7 sup(T), were isolated from a deep-sea sediment sample collected from the Chagos Trench of the Indian Ocean (11 degrees 6 minutes S 72 degrees 31 minutes E). Based on their ...
Inter-relationship between nuclei and gross characteristics of manganese nodules, Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)
More than 200 samples of manganese nodules from the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) were studied for their different parameters. The study included various aspects such as morphology, texture, mineralogy, and composition ...
Studies on the nutrient distribution in the Southern Ocean waters along the 45 degrees E transect
(NISCAIR, India, 2008)
Seawater samples from the surface as well as at different depths of the water column were collected from 30 stations during the Pilot Expedition to Southern Ocean (PESO). The sampling stations were along a transect between ...
Research opportunities and challenges in the Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 2008)
The Indian Ocean is a dynamically complex and highly variable system, with circulation features and biogeochemical properties that are unusual in many respects. Yet the Indian Ocean (IO) remains one of the most under-sampled ...
First report of Limnoricus ponticus Dovgal and Lozowskiy (Ciliophora: Suctorea) as epibionts on Pycnophyes (Kinorhyncha) from the Indian Ocean with key to species of the genus Limnoricus
(Station Biologique de Roscoff, 2008)
This article deals with the characteristics of the suctorian Limnoricus ponticus Dovgal and Lozowskiy, 2008 that was observed for the first time on Kinorhyncha as a host and in a new locality (the Indian Ocean). In addition ...
Applications of GIS and remote sensing for assessing and management of ecologically sensitive habitats from small islands on Chagos Laccadive Archipelago
(Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2008)
Remote Sensing of Inland, Coastal, and Oceanic Waters. eds. by: Frouin, R.J.; Andrefouet, S.; Kawamura, H.; Lynch, M.J.; Pan, D.; Platt, T.(Remote Sensing of Inland, Coastal, and Oceanic Waters Conf.). (Proc. SPIE; 7150). ...
Late quaternary fluctuations in carbonate and carbonate ion content in the northern Indian ocean
(2008)
The proposed research is aimed to understand the Late Quaternary fluctuations in carbonate and carbonate ion content in the northern Indian Ocean with the following specific objectives: 1) To identify suitable paleocarbonate ...
Relevance of bacterioplankton abundance and production in the oligotrophic equatorial Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2008)
Bacterioplankton abundance and production, chlorophyll a (Chl a) concentrations and primary production (PP) were measured from the equatorial Indian Ocean (EIO) during northeast (NEM), southwest (SWM) and spring intermonsoon ...
Drift pumice in the central Indian Ocean Basin: Geochemical evidence
(Elsevier, 2008)
Abundant white to light grey-coloured pumice without ferromanganese oxide coating occurs within the Quaternary sediments of the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB). Two distinct groups of pumice are identified from their ...
