Distribution of benthic foraminifera within oxygen minima zone, off central west coast, India
(Gondwana Geological Society, 2003)
A total of 128 surface sediment samples (76 grab and 52 core top samples) were analyzed for benthic foraminiferal contents from the region off Goa, India in the eastern Arabian Sea upto a water depth of 3300 m. 195 species ...
Role of ocean in the genesis and annihilation of the core of the warm pool in the southeastern Arabian Sea
(India Meteorological Department, 2005)
The earlier hypothesis, stated in the ARMEX (Arabian Sea Monsoon Experiment) Science Plan, that the ocean plays an important, but passive, role in the genesis of the core of warm pool in the southeastern Arabian Sea (SEAS) ...
Seasonal controls on surface pCO2 in the central and eastern Arabian Sea
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2000)
The variability in partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) and its control by biological and physical processes in the mixed layer (ML) of the central and eastern Arabian Sea during inter-monsoon, northeast monsoon, and ...
Cellular-based and internet-enabled real-time reporting of the tsunami at Goa and Kavaratti Island due to Mw 8.4 earthquake in Sumatra on 12 September 2007
(Current Science Association, 2008)
The tsunami at Goa (west coast of India) and Kavaratti Island (Lakshadweep archipelago) in the Arabian Sea, caused by the 12 September 2007 Sumatra earthquake, was reported from cellular-based sea-level gauges in real-time ...
Anoxia over the western continental shelf of India: Bacterial indications of intrinsic nitrification feeding denitrification
(Elsevier, 2008)
Studies on the Arabian Sea coastal anoxia have been of immense interest, but despite its ecological significance there is sparse understanding of the microbes involved. Hence, observations were carried out off Goa (15 ...
16SrRNA and enzymatic diversity of culturable bacteria from the sediments of oxygen minimum zone in the Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2010)
Sediment underlying the oxygen minimum zone of the eastern Arabian Sea is rich in organic matter. Bacteria in this sediment-water interface are of great ecological importance as they are responsible for decomposing, ...
Arabian Sea mini warm pool and the monsoon onset vortex
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2007)
Warm pools – regions with sea surface temperature (SST) in excess of 28°C – in the ocean occupy a special place in tropical climate owing to their impact on tropical convection. The southeastern Arabian Sea presents SST ...
Respiratory enzyme activities in the oxygen-deficient waters of the Arabian Sea
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2001)
Denitrification in the oxygen-poor waters at intermediate depths in the Arabian Sea is very intense. Depth profiles of nitrite and the activities of the electron transport system (ETS) and dissimilatory enzymes such as ...
Physical and biological response of the Arabian sea to tropical cyclone Phyan and its implications
(Elsevier, 2011)
The response to the tropical cyclone Phyan, which developed in the eastern Arabian Sea during 9–11 November 2009, was rapid cooling of sea surface temperature (SST), enhancement of chlorophyll a and two-fold increase in ...
Trajectory of an oil spill off Goa, eastern Arabian Sea: Field observations and simulations
(Elsevier, 2007)
An oil spill occurred off Goa, west coast of India, on 23 March 2005 due to collision of 2 vessels. In general, fair weather with weak winds prevails along the west coast of India during March. In that case, the spill would ...
