Stress and toxicity of biologically important transition metals (Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) on phytoplankton in a tropical freshwater system: An investigation with pigment analysis by HPLC
(Elsevier, 2010)
Stress and toxicity of four biologically important transition metals (Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) on phytoplankton in Godavari River (a tropical freshwater system) were studied to understand the fate of phytoplankton of freshwater ...
Building digital collections: An evaluation
(DELNET, 2010)
The difference between 'digital collection' and 'digital library' has been explained. The evaluation parameters for digital collections are described. These are based on the basic principles of the digital collection. The ...
Navigation of autonomous underwater vehicle using extended kalman filter
(Springer, 2010)
To navigate the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) accurately is one of the most important aspects in its application. A truly autonomous vehicle must determine its position which requires the optimal integration of all ...
Biological and environmental characteristics of mangrove habitats from Manori creek, West Coast, India
(Springer, 2010)
Mumbai, a megacity of India, and its adjacent marine environment, though heavily stressed from various anthropogenic interferences, harbor approx. 146 km sup(2) of mangrove cover. Manori creek, in the close vicinity of ...
Denitrification exceeds anammox as a nitrogen loss pathway in the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone
(Elsevier, 2010)
The oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) of the world oceans are sites of enhanced anaerobic nitrogen transformations, such that the largest OMZ, the Arabian Sea, is responsible for 30-50% of the oceanic water column fixed N loss. ...
An insight into the 'Fifty-Fathom-Flat' off India's west coast
(Elsevier, 2010)
The architecture of the western continental margin of India (WCMI) is likely to have been influenced in the geological past by several episodes of volcanic eruptions, rifting, and continental break-up. The WCMI is characterized ...
Antimicrobial lipids from the hemolymph of brachyuran crabs
(Springer, 2010)
The potential of marine crabs as a source of biologically active products is largely unexplored. In the present study, antimicrobial activity of the hemolymph (plasma) and hemocytes (plasma cells) of six brachyuran crabs ...
Intra-annual variability in nutrients in the Godavari estuary, India
(Elsevier, 2010)
Daily variations in nutrients were monitored for 15 months (September 2007-November 2008) in the Godavari estuary, Andhra Pradesh, India, at two fixed locations. River discharge has significant influence on nutrients loading ...
Anthropogenic effects on sediment quality offshore southwestern Taiwan: Assessing the sediment core geochemical record
(Elsevier, 2010)
Slag material was dumped in two sites off southwestern Taiwan by the China Steel Corporation during 1984-1995. By geochemically analyzing four sediment cores, the impact of slag on the sediment chemistry is investigated. ...
