Distribution and sources of organic matter in surface sediments of the eastern continental margin of India
(American Geophysical Union, 2013)
The sources and distribution of organic matter (OM) in surface sediments of the eastern continental margin of India, including the region influenced by river discharge, were investigated using content, molar C:N ratios and ...
A significant shift in particulate organic matter characteristics during flooding of River Krishna, eastern peninsular India
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2020)
Extremely heavy rainfall over a small, semi-arid section of the Indian Peninsula in October 2009, together with release of water from dams resulted in very severe flooding in River Krishna. The sources and type of organic ...
Export of dissolved inorganic nutrients to the northern Indian Ocean from the Indian monsoonal rivers during discharge period
(Elsevier, 2016)
Coastal regions are highly productive due to the nutrients largely supplied by rivers. To examine the contribution of dissolved inorganic nutrients (DIN) by Indian rivers to coastal waters, data were collected near the ...
Ventilation of Oxygen to Oxygen Minimum Zone Due to Anticyclonic Eddies in the Bay of Bengal
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)
Intense oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) occurs in the middepth of the Eastern Tropical Pacific (ETP), Arabian Sea (AS), and Bay of Bengal (BoB). However, the occurrence of anammox/denitrification was reported only in the ETP and ...
Spatio-temporal variability in the sources of particulate organic carbon and nitrogen in a tropical Godavari estuary
(Elsevier, 2018)
In order to evaluate the impact of seasonal river discharge on the spatio-temporal variability in the major sources of particulate organic matter (POM) in the tropical Godavari estuary, India, a comprehensive study was ...
Influence of net ecosystem metabolism in transferring riverine organic carbon to atmospheric CO2 in a tropical coastal lagoon (Chilka Lake, India)
(Springer, 2008)
Studies on biogeochemical cycling of carbon in the Chilka Lake, Asia’s largest brackish lagoon on the east coast of India, revealed, for the first time, strong seasonal and spatial variability associated with salinity ...
Intra-annual variability in nutrients in the Godavari estuary, India
(Elsevier, 2010)
Daily variations in nutrients were monitored for 15 months (September 2007-November 2008) in the Godavari estuary, Andhra Pradesh, India, at two fixed locations. River discharge has significant influence on nutrients loading ...
Impact of river discharge on distribution of zooplankton biomass, community structure and food web dynamics in the Western coastal Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2017)
Observations were carried out along the western coastal Bay of Bengal, to examine the physical, chemical and biological parameters during the summer monsoon particularly when the rivers of India are in flood condition and ...
Net community production in the northern Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 2009)
The monthly/seasonal variability in net community production (NCP) is controlled by the monsoon either through increasing nutrients to the euphotic zone or an increase in river runoff in the northern Indian Ocean. Net ...
Influence of river discharge on the distribution and flux of methane in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2017)
Rivers are known to be strong sources of methane (CH4) to the atmosphere and their discharges may also enhance its flux from the coastal ocean. In order to examine this, CH4 fluxes to the atmosphere were examined along the ...
