Why the Gulf of Mannar is a marine biological paradise?
(Springer, 2021)
The Gulf of Mannar (GoM), located between India and Sri Lanka, has astonishing faunal richness and diversity. Two oceanographic data sets supplemented with satellite remote sensing observations are discussed here to show ...
Influence of hydrological factors on bacterial community structure in a tropical monsoonal estuary in India
(Springer, 2021)
In the present study, we analyzed variations in bacterial community structure along a salinity gradient in a tropical monsoonal estuary (Cochin estuary [CE]), on the southwest coast of India, using Illumina next-generation ...
Xylanolytic enzyme consortia from Bacillus sp. NIORKP76 for improved biobleaching of kraft pulp
(Springer, 2021)
A cellulase-free xylanolytic enzyme consortia consisting of a xylanase, arabinofuranosidase, and acetyl xylan esterase produced by Bacillus sp. NIORKP76 isolate under solid-state fermentation was assessed for its bio-bleaching ...
A study on loops and eddies identified from the trajectories of drifters in the North Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2021)
We identify loops and eddies from the trajectories of the drifters in the North Indian Ocean (NIO) from October 1985 to March 2019. We use the geometric identification method to identify loops and eddies and compare them ...
Nutritional value of seaweeds and their potential to serve as nutraceutical supplements
(Taylor & Francis, 2021)
Seaweeds are marine autotrophic organisms with numerous bioactive compounds of interest. Several seaweed products are available in the form of food or medicine due to their myriad beneficial biomolecules like anti-diabetic, ...
Ocean Acidification Triggers Cell Signaling, Suppress Immune and Calcification in the Pacific Oyster Larvae
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2021)
Elevated carbon dioxide levels in ocean waters, an anthropogenic stressor, can alter the chemical equilibrium of seawater through a process called ocean acidification (OA). The resultant reduction of pH can be detrimental ...
Acidification of the coastal Bay of Bengal by aerosols deposition
(Springer, 2021)
Polluted aerosol transport from South Asia containing oxides of nitrogen and sulphur and their deposition on surface may acidify coastal waters. To test this hypothesis, we have conducted experiments involving (a) variability ...
Decadal variations in natural and anthropogenic aerosol optical depth over the Bay of Bengal: the influence of pollutants from Indo - Gangetic Plain
(Springer, 2021)
Perennial increase in atmospheric pollution over the Bay of Bengal (BoB) and South China Sea is reported due to increase in human population and industrial activity in South and Southeast Asia. Based on total aerosol optical ...
Evaluation of the Physiological Bacterial Groups in a Tropical Biosecured, Zero-Exchange System Growing Whiteleg Shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei
(Springer, 2021)
To elucidate the individual and multiple roles of physiological bacterial groups involved in biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur, the changes in the abundance of aerobic bacteria (heterotrophs, ...
How does frontal age influence physiological status of bacteria: a case study from the Northeastern Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2021)
Sea surface temperature fronts in the Northeastern Arabian Sea (NEAS) facilitate nutrient enhancement in the surface layers, resulting in high primary production. Such high production areas contribute to the accumulation ...
