Fragilariopsis sp. bloom causes yellowish-brown waters off Alappuzha, south-central Kerala coast, India, during the mud bank-upwelling phase
(Current Science Association & Indian Academy of Sciences, 2018)
Mud banks (Chakara) of Kerala are calm coastal waters that form in several isolated stretches along the coast usually during the southwest monsoon (SWM) period (June-September). They are characterized by the damping of ...
Spatial variability in phytoplankton community structure along the eastern Arabian Sea during the onset of south-west monsoon
(Elsevier, 2016)
The Arabian Sea experiences moderate to weak upwelling along the south-west coast of India, which subsequently propagates towards the north. This causes variation in plankton community composition, which is addressed in ...
Introduction to Indian Ocean biogeochemical processes and ecological variability: Current understanding and emerging perspectives
(American Geophysical Union, 2009)
Despite a history of exploration dating back to the classical era and its leading role as a pathway for trade and cultural exchange for the great civilizations of those times, the Indian Ocean has consistently been subject ...
AoA Region: South Asian Seas
(UNESCO/IOC, 2009)
The South Asian Seas region lies in the northern extreme of the Indian Ocean. It includes the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal Large Marine Ecosystems (LME) along with their marginal basins as well as the Laccadive Sea and ...
An insight into subterranean flow proposition around Alleppey mudbank coastal sector, Kerala, India: Inferences from the subsurface profiles of ground penetrating radar
(Springer, 2016)
The mudbank formation along south-western Indian coast has been a scintillating phenomenon during monsoon season, and the source of mud is a debatable issue till now. In the midst of many hypotheses, the subterranean passage ...
Reduced iron associated with secondary nitrite maxima in the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2007)
Dissolved iron and Fe(II) were measured in the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) of the Arabian Sea in September 2004. The OMZ is a well-demarcated feature characterized by high rates of denitrification, and a deep nitrite maximum ...
Coupling between suboxic condition in sediments of the western Bay of Bengal and southwest monsoon intensification: A geochemical study
(Elsevier, 2013)
Reconstruction of paleo-redox conditions in a radiocarbon (14C) dated sediment core (SK-218/1), covering the past 45 ka (thousand calendar years), collected from the western Bay of Bengal (Lat: 14 degrees 02′N; Long: 82 ...
The Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2008)
There are two unique aspects of geography of the Indian Ocean that profoundly influence its climate and circulation: (a) The Indian Ocean’s northern expanse is curtailed by the Eurasian landmass around the Tropic of Cancer ...
Indian Ocean margins
(Springer-Verlag, 2010)
The most important biogeochemical transformations and boundary exchanges in the Indian Ocean seem to occur in the northern region, where the processes originating at the land-ocean boundary extend far beyond the continental ...
Marine hypoxia/anoxia as a source of CH4 and N2O
(European Geosciences Union, 2010)
We review here the available information on methane (CH sub(4)) and nitrous oxide (N sub(2)O) from major marine, mostly coastal, oxygen (O sub(2))-deficient zones formed both naturally and as a result of human activities ...
