Evaluation of the reanalysis wind over the Indian Ocean across the seasonal reversing wind pattern
(NISCAIR-CSIR, India, 2019)
Present study show the similarity as well as contradictory event among the four different wind data based on monthly, seasonally and annual wind pattern over Indian Ocean. All the four reanalysis wind sources exhibit almost ...
Origin and distribution of shallow gas-charged sediment on the inner continental shelf of central west coast of India
(2019)
High-resolution shallow seismic investigations on inner continental shelf of Goa have been carried out to map gas-charged sediment zones and investigate origin of trapped gas. Analyses of data reveal that the gas is trapped ...
Significant seasonal contrast in the Arabian Sea during deglaciation: Evidence from oxygen isotopic analyses of individual planktic foraminifera
(Elsevier, 2019)
The variation of stable isotopes between individual shells of planktic foraminifera of a given species and size may provide short-term seasonal insight into past sea surface temperature (SST) and salinity (SSS). In this ...
Impact of the Indian Summer Monsoon variability on the source area weathering in the Indo-Burman ranges during the last 21-kyr - A sediment record from the Andaman Sea
(Elsevier, 2019)
The paleomonsoonal variations and their impact on the weathering patterns in the source regions of sediments of the Andaman Sea were investigated from a 21-kyr sedimentary record using environmental magnetic, clay mineralogical ...
Extended distribution of Phtisica marina Slabber, 1769 (Crustacea: Amphipoda): first observation of alien Caprellid in the coastal waters of Indian subcontinent
(Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre - REABIC, Helsinki, Finland, 2019)
Phtisica marina, originally described by Slabber, 1769 from Netherlands, is one of the most abundant caprellid amphipod species reported from numerous regions around the globe and is primarily associated with fouling ...
Spatiotemporal variation of alkaline phosphatase activity in coastal waters off Trivandrum
(Elsevier, 2019)
Phosphatase is an extracellular enzyme which releases inorganic phosphate (Pi) from dissolved organic phosphate and indirectly organic carbon as nutrients for aquatic communities. Here, we have examined spatiotemporal ...
Seasonal spreading and transport of buoyant plumes in the shelf off Kochi, South west coast of India- A modeling approach
(2019)
We investigated the seasonal spreading and transport of buoyant plume in the shelf off Kochi using Finite Volume Community Ocean Model (FVCOM). The modelled river plume typically consisted of an offshore bulge and a coastal ...
Role of sulfur-oxidizing bacteria on the ecology in tropical mangrove sediments
(Elsevier, 2019)
Mangroves are unique ecological niches for microorganisms which play major roles in biogeochemical cycles and in nutrient recycling. Sulfur compounds are primarily utilized by sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (SOB) and sulfate-reducing ...
Metagenomic analysis of tarball-associated bacteria from Goa, India
(Elsevier, 2019)
The beaches of Goa state in India are frequently polluted with tarballs, specifically during pre-monsoon and monsoon seasons. Tarballs contain hydrocarbons, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which pose significant ...
Gas transfer velocities of CO2 in subtropical monsoonal climate streams and small rivers
(European Geosciences Union, 2019)
CO2 outgassing from rivers is a critical component for evaluating riverine carbon cycle, but it is poorly quantified largely due to limited measurements and modeling of gas transfer velocity in subtropical streams and ...
