Morphology and physiology of the marine straminipilan fungi, the aplanochytrids isolated from the equatorial Indian Ocean
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2006)
While thraustochytrids, a group of unicellular marine straminipilan protists, have been found to be abundant in the water column, little is known of aplanochytrids. These constitute one of the 3 groups belonging to the ...
Spatial distribution of meteorological parameters around 900 hPa level over the Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean regions during the IFP-99 of the INDOEX programme as revealed from the constant altitude balloon experiments conducted from Goa
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2001)
During the IFP-99 of the INDOEX programme, an Indo-French joint scientific team conducted 17 constant balloon flights from Goa (India) mainly to study the various features features of the continental air mass flow from the ...
Structure and variability of the Leeuwin current in the south eastern Indian Ocean
(Indian Geophysical Union, 2005)
The present study analyses the structure and variability of the Leeuwin Current in the south Indian Ocean. Besides the historic hydrographic dataset various observations made during WOCE, TOGA and other experiments conducted ...
Ocean-atmosphere interactions during cyclone Nargis
(American Geophysical Union, 2009)
Cyclone Nargis (Figure 1a) made landfall in Myanmar (formerly Burma) on 2 May 2008 with sustained winds of approximately 210 kilometers per hour, equivalent to a category 3-4 hurricane. In addition, Nargis brought approximately ...
Studies on the nutrient distribution in the Southern Ocean waters along the 45 degrees E transect
(NISCAIR, India, 2008)
Seawater samples from the surface as well as at different depths of the water column were collected from 30 stations during the Pilot Expedition to Southern Ocean (PESO). The sampling stations were along a transect between ...
Seismotectonics of the Indian subcontinent and the Bengal fan
(2006)
The great Sumatra earthquake of 26th December, 2004 (0629 hrs IST) followed by the unique Indian ocean tsunami have added a new dimension to the natural hazard scenario of the country. Hitherto, the coastal region is ...
Indian Ocean research: Opportunities and challenges
(American Geophysical Union, 2009)
Historically, the Indian Ocean (IO) has received relatively little attention from the oceanographic community and therefore remains substantially undersampled compared to the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. This situation is ...
Research opportunities and challenges in the Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 2008)
The Indian Ocean is a dynamically complex and highly variable system, with circulation features and biogeochemical properties that are unusual in many respects. Yet the Indian Ocean (IO) remains one of the most under-sampled ...
Platinum group elements and gold in ferromanganese crusts from Afanasiy-Nikitin seamount, equatorial Indian Ocean: Sources and fractionation
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2007)
The major element relationships in ferromanganese (Fe–Mn) crusts from Afanasiy–Nikitin seamount (ANS), eastern equatorial Indian Ocean, appear to be atypical. High positive correlations (r = 0.99) between Mn/Co and Fe/Co ...
On the semi-diagnostic computation of climatological circulation in the western tropical Indian Ocean
(India Meteorological Department, 2000)
The seasonal mean climatological circulation in the Indian Ocean north of 20°S and west of 80°E during the summer and winter has been investigated using a 3-dimensional, fully non-linear, semi-diagnostic circulation model. ...
