(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2010)
The impact of global warming on the cyclonic storms over the north Indian Ocean have been studied using a suite of multiple datasets that includes the NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis, the extended reconstruction sea surface temperature ...
What drives the increased phytoplankton biomass in the Arabian Sea?
(Current Science Association, 2010)
The seasonal variability of phytoplankton biomass in the Arabian Sea, though a well researched topic, its inter-annual variability is less explored and understood. Analysis of the satellite-derived chlorophyll pigment ...
Changes in the abundance and composition of zooplankton from the ports of Mumbai, India
(Springer, 2010)
Zooplankton abundance, biomass, and composition from the ports of Mumbai, India, were studied by selecting 14 stations in and around the area during three different periods between 2001 and 2002 (Nov 01, Apr 02, and Oct ...
Impact of water quality changes on harbour environment due to port activities along the west coast of India
(Sultan Qaboos Univ., 2010)
Physico-chemical and biological studies were carried out in 3 major harbours (Kandla, Mormugao and Mangalore) along the west coast of India over different periods from 2002 to 2007. R-mode factor analyses, water quality ...
New perceptions of continrntal margin biodiversity
(Blackwell, 2010)

Hydrological modelling of the west coast of India
(Goa University, 2010)
A hydrological modelling framework was assembled for simulating discharges of the west-coast rivers of India. The framework is applied to the Mandovi river, Goa, a typical west-coast river. The modelling framework consisted ...
Incorporation of transition and platinum group elements (PGE) in Co-rich Mn crusts at Afanasiy-Nikitin Seamount (AFS) in the equatorial S Indian Ocean
(The Society of Resource Geology, 2010)
Of the 12 elements enriched in Co-rich Mn crusts from the Afanasiy-Nikitin Seamount in the Equatorial S Indian Ocean, Mn, Fe and Co are enriched by a factor of approx. 10 sup(9) compared to their concentrations in seawater ...
Ecology of fungi in the denitrification zones of the Arabian Sea
(2010)
The microbial process, denitrification was considered to be an inherent character of a few specialized groups of bacteria. But recently, the involvement of micro-eukaryotes such as fungi and foraminiferans are reported ...
Response of coastal vegetation and the need for green belts along the Tamil Nadu coast, India: The December 2004 tsunami experience
(Nova Science Pub., 2010)
The Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004 transmitted multiple lessons: whereas certain strips were destroyed in totality, others remained unaffected or practically intact. Detailed post-tsunami field surveys conducted ...
Correlation of the oldest Toba Tuff to sediments in the central Indian Ocean Basin
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2010)
We have identified an ash layer in association with Australasian microtektites of approx. 0.77Ma old in two sediment cores which are approx. 450 km apart in the central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB). Morphology and chemical ...
