Distribution and nature of sedimentary organic matter in a tropical estuary: An indicator of human intervention on environment
(Elsevier, 2016)
Sediment texture controls the spatial distribution of sedimentary organic matter (SOM) in the Vembanad Lake. Influences of marine derived organic matter (OM) on SOM decreased inner-wards in the northern part of the lake. ...
A preliminary estimate of total petroleum hydrocarbons in water and osme commercially important fish species in the Amba estuary, west coast of India
(Springer, 2016)
Amba Estuary, which receives effluent from several industries including a petrochemical complex, opens to the southern limits of the Mumbai Harbor. The study was conducted to find out the level of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons ...
Source characterisation of Sedimentary organic matter in mangrove ecosystems of northern Kerala, India: Inferences from bulk characterisation and hydrocarbon biomarkers
(Elsevier, 2016)
Surface sediment samples from five mangrove ecosystems along the Kerala coast, north of Kochi were analysed for elemental ratios, stable isotopes of carbon and hydrocarbon biomarkers (n-alkanes, n-alkenes and hopanes) to ...
Kinetic speciation of mercury–humate complexes in aqueous solutions by using competing ligand exchange method
(Elsevier, 2016)
Competing ligand exchange method (CLEM) in conjunction with direct mercury analyzer (DMA) was found to be a useful method for kinetic speciation study of (mercury–humic acid) Hg–HA complexes in aqueous systems. Ambersep ...
Effect of biofilm on fluorescence measurements derived from fast repetition rate fluorometers
(Taylor and Francis, 2015)
This study evaluates, for the first time, the influence of biofilms on single and double optical window (SOW and DOW, respectively) fast repetition rate fluorometer (FRRF) measurements of microalgal photosystem-II initial ...
Mercury profiles in sediment from the marginal high of Arabian Sea: An indicator of increasing anthropogenic Hg input
(Springer, 2016)
Total Hg distributions and its speciation were determined in two sediment cores collected from the western continental marginal high of India. Total Hg content in the sediment was found to gradually increase (by approximately ...
Residual estuarine circulation in the Mandovi, a monsoonal estuary: A three-dimensional model study
(Elsevier, 2016)
Observations in the Mandovi estuary, located on the central west coast of India, have shown that the salinity field in this estuary is remarkably time-dependent and passes through all possible states of stratification ...
Prediction of gas hydrate saturation throughout the seismic section in Krishna Godavari basin using multivariate linear regression and multi-layer feed forward neural network approach
(Springer, 2016)
Stepwise linear regression, multi-layer feed forward neural (MLFN) network method was used to predict the 2D distribution of P-wave velocity, resistivity, porosity, and gas hydrate saturation throughout seismic section ...
Organic matter - A key factor in controlling mercury distribution in estuarine sediment
(Elsevier, 2015)
Organic matter (OM) was found to play an important role in controlling mercury (Hg) distribution and speciation in estuarine sediment of the Vembanad Lake. The sedimentary organic carbon (OC) from the northern part of the ...
Setting of cloud albedo in the atmospheric correction procedure to generate the ocean colour data products from OCM-2
(Springer, 2015)
Cloud masking is one of the primary and important steps in the atmospheric correction procedure in particular to coastal ocean waters. Cloud masking for ocean colour data processing is based on the assumption that the water ...
