Oceanic fronts along 45 degrees across Antarctic Circumpolar Current during austral summer 2004
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2005)
A pilot expedition was launched to monitor the oceanic fronts in the southwestern sector of the Indian Ocean during January–February 2004. Major fronts along 45 degrees E between 40 and 56 degrees S were delineated and ...
Intraseasonal response of the northern Indian Ocean coastal waveguide to the Madden-Julian Oscillation
(American Geophysical Union, 2009)
A new observational record of upper-ocean currents at 15 degrees N on the western coast of India is dominated by intraseasonal (55-110 day) variations of alongshore currents, whereas sea level at the same location has a ...
Two new species of Chaetognatha from the Andaman Sea, Indian Ocean
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)
Two new chaetognath species, Krohnitta balagopali and Sagitta meenakshiae, are described from the Andaman Sea (Indian Ocean). K. balagopali is easily distinguishable from the other two known species of the genus by its ...
Role of eddies in the Bay of Bengal circulation and hydrography and in the distribution of nutrients and chlorophyll
(2007)
Eddies are ubiquitous in the ocean and are products of geophysical turbulence. They develop from the hydrodynamic instabilities and are known to alter the physical and biochemical properties of the ocean. In the north ...
Intraseasonal meridional current variability in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 2008)
Intraseasonal variability in meridional current in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean is investigated by use of results from a high-resolution ocean general circulation model. Both the simulated and observed meridional ...
What drives the biological productivity of the northern Indian Ocean?
(American Geophysical Union, 2009)
The northern Indian Ocean consists of two unique tropical basins: the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. The Arabian Sea is one of the most highly productive regions of the world ocean, while the Bay of Bengal is a basin ...
Satellite gravity anomalies and crustal features of the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2004)
Satellite free-air gravity anomaly contour map at 5 mGal interval, seismic reflection and bathymetric data lead to the identification of deformed crustal structure of the Central Indian Ocean Basin. Twenty-three NE-SW ...
Brevibacterium oceanic sp. nov., isolated from deep-sea sediment of the Chagos Trench, Indian Ocean
(The Society for General Microbiology, 2008)
Two bacterial strains, designated BBH5 and BBH7 sup(T), were isolated from a deep-sea sediment sample collected from the Chagos Trench of the Indian Ocean (11 degrees 6 minutes S 72 degrees 31 minutes E). Based on their ...
Inter-relationship between nuclei and gross characteristics of manganese nodules, Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)
More than 200 samples of manganese nodules from the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) were studied for their different parameters. The study included various aspects such as morphology, texture, mineralogy, and composition ...
Deep-sea ecosystems of the Indian Ocean
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2005)
The deep Indian Ocean is composed of a variety of habitat types, including abyssal plains, oxygenated slopes and basins, seamounts, and trenches. The geomorphological features of the Indian Ocean include mid-ocean ridges, ...
