Post-breakup deformations in the Bay of Bengal: Response of crustal strata to the sediment load
(Springer, 2020)
Passive continental margins are tectonically inactive, but a few of them including the East India Passive Margin (EIPM) show evidences for post-breakup deformations. This unusual process prompted us to investigate the ...
Report of ciliate epibionts (Ciliophora) on meiobenthic invertebrates from Indian coast near Karwar, Karnataka
(Protozoological Society Affiliated with RAS, St. Petersburg, Russia, 2020)
The article describes four epibiont suctorian ciliates, viz. Thecacineta cothurnioides (Collin, 1909) and Trematosoma rotunda (Allg�n, 1952) on the nematode Tricoma sp., Thecacineta calix (Schr�der, 1907) and Acineta ...
Late Quaternary Chronostratigraphy, Carbonate Mass Accumulation Rates and Palaeoceanography of the Andaman Sea
(Springer, Cham, 2020)
The Andaman Sea, the least explored semi-enclosed marginal sea in the northern Indian Ocean, is one of the great repositories of palaeo-sedimentary archives for Quaternary climate and oceanographic studies due to its ...
Nitrogen and carbon cycling over the western continental shelf of India during seasonal anoxia: A stable isotope approach
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
The western continental shelf of India (eastern Arabian Sea) houses the world�s largest seasonally-occurring coastal low-oxygen zone. The natural abundance of nitrogen and oxygen isotopes in dissolved nitrate were measured ...
Biogenesis of silver nanoparticles by marine bacteria Labrenzia sp. Mab 26 associated with Isochrysis galbana
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2020)
The metabolic or chemical nature of algal-bacterial interactions has opened up unexpected new ways for finding novel microbes with potential for several biotechnological applications. Silver nanoparticles (AgNps) possess ...
Geochemical characterization of modern aeolian dust over the Northeastern Arabian Sea: Implication for dust transport in the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2020)
The Arabian Sea, one of the most biologically productive oceanic regions, receive significant amount of nutrients through aeolian dust deposition which have potential to modulate surface water biogeochemical processes. ...
A rock magnetic perspective of gas hydrate occurrences in a high-energy depositional system in the Krishna-Godavari basin, Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2020)
We conducted a detailed rock magnetic study complemented by sedimentological and mineralogical methods on a 177.2-m-long sediment core of Hole NGHP-01-14A to constrain the influence of high-energy depositional environment ...
Evaluation of Physical and Environmental Parameters of the Indian Sundarbans
(Springer , Singapore, 2020)
Deltas and associated coastlines are amongst the most rapidly changing landscape features, as these are subjected to physical, geological, biological and environmental threats. One of the largest deltas of the world, ...
Building Capacity and Resilience Against Diseases Transmitted via Water Under Climate Perturbations and Extreme Weather Stress
(Springer, Cham, 2020)
It is now generally accepted that climate variability and change, occurrences of extreme weather events, urbanisation and human pressures on the environment, and high mobility of human populations, all contribute to the ...
Phytoplankton characterisation in the Alappuzha mud banks during the pre-/post phases of a red-tide, Prorocentrum shikokuense Hada
(Elsevier, 2020)
The short-term changes in hydrochemical and phytoplankton characteristics occurring in the Alappuzha mud bank (AMB) region, located on the southwest coast of India, were monitored in association with a red-tide event caused ...
