PCR screening for the surfactin (sfp) gene in marine Bacillus strains and its molecular characterization from Bacillus tequilensis NIOS11
(The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2013)
The sfp gene responsible for surfactin production was screened from the DNA extracts of 37 Bacillus spp. whose identity was confirmed by 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses. PCR screening revealed amplification of sfp gene ...
The origin of ferro-manganese oxide coated pumice from the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Elsevier, 2013)
Pumice clasts, partially and fully coated with ferro-manganese oxide from the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) were analysed for major, trace and rare earth elements; and glass and mineral grain chemistry to assess their ...
Particle backscattering variability in the coastal waters of Bay of Bengal: A case study along off Kakinada and Yanam Regions
(IEEE, 2013)
The distribution and variability of particulate back scattering coefficient (b<sub>bp</sub>) in the Godavari basin are reported for the first time using in situ measurements. A coastal cruise was conducted in the coastal ...
Influence of Saltwater Barrage on Tides, Salinity, and Chlorophyll a in Cochin Estuary, India
(Coastal Education and Reserch Foundation, 2013)
Thanneermukkam Barrage (TB) is constructed in the southern arm of Cochin estuary. It prevents salt intrusion upstream and regulates river discharge downstream. Characteristics of the estuary when the barrage is opened and ...
Carbon dioxide emissions from the tropical Dowleiswaram Reservoir on the Godavari River, Southeast of India
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013)
Time-series observations were conducted in the Dowleiswaram dam reservoir that was constructed on the largest monsoonal river in India to understand the source of inorganic carbon, and fluxes to the atmosphere. The reservoir ...
Effect of eyestalk extirpation on haemolymph ionic concentration of Metapenaeus monoceros
(Horizon Publisher, 2013)
Metapenaeus monoceros in the size range 65-70mm was subjected to the evaluation of sodium(Na<sup>+</sup>),, potassium (K<sup>+</sup>) and calcium (Ca<sup>2+</sup>) ionic concentration in the haemolymph after unilateral ...
Assessment of MODIS-Aqua chlorophyll-a algorithms in coastal and shelf waters of the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2013)
The use of ocean colour remote sensing to facilitate the monitoring of phytoplankton biomass in coastal waters is hampered by the high variability in absorption and scattering from substances other than phytoplankton. The ...
Optimal Sensor placement for acoustic range-based underwater robotic positioning
(International Federation of Automatic Control, 2013)
This paper addresses the problem of optimal sensor placement for acoustic range-based underwater target positioning. In particular, we focus on the experimental set-up whereby target positioning is ...
Complexities in coastal sediment transport studies by numerical modelling
(Hasanuddin University, Indonesia, 2013)
Marine environmental studies related to erosion, accretion, pollution transport, dredge disposal, location of seawater intake, effluent disposal, etc., involve sediment transport studies. Numerical models use set of well ...
Mariniradius saccharolyticus gen. nov., sp. nov., a member of the family Cyclobacteriaceae isolated from marine aquaculture pond water, and emended descriptions of the genus Aquiflexum and Aquiflexum balticum
(International Union of Microbiological Societies, 2013)
A novel marine, Gram-stain-negative, oxidase- and catalase- positive, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain AK6 sup(T), was isolated from marine aquaculture pond water collected in Andhra Pradesh, India. The fatty acids ...
