Observed changes in ocean acidity and carbon dioxide exchange in the coastal Bay of Bengal - a link to air pollution
(The International Meteorological Institute in Stockholm, 2015)
Variations in surface water hydrographic properties and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) were evaluated in the coastal Bay of Bengal using observations carried out during March–April 1991 and 2011, including 8 yr monthly ...
Impact of atmospheric and physical forcings on biogeochemical cycling of dissolved oxygen and nutrients in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2013)
Time-series observations were conducted off Visakhapatnam, central west coast of Bay of Bengal, from October 2007 to April 2009 to examine the influence of physical and atmospheric processes on water column nutrients ...
Intensified oxygen minimum zone on the western shelf of Bay of Bengal during summer monsoon: Influence of river discharge
(Springer, 2013)
A study on biogeochemical cycling in the west coastal Bay of Bengal was undertaken during the peak discharge period to understand the influence of enhanced stratification and primary production on the possible intensification ...
Spatial and temporal variability in concentration and characteristics of aerosols at Visakhapatnam (east) and Goa (west) coasts of India
(2020)
Knowledge on the variability in quantity and compositions of various size groups of aerosols is important to understand their sources and their role in biogeochemical and climate processes. Here, we studied total suspended ...
Spatial variations in dissolved inorganic nutrients in the groundwaters along the Indian coast and their export to adjacent coastal waters
(Springer, 2021)
Submarine Groundwater Discharge (SGD) is one of the main external nutrient sources to the coastal waters. The concentrations of nutrients in groundwaters are a few folds higher than that of adjacent coastal waters; therefore, ...
Short term response of plankton community to nutrient enrichment in central eastern Arabian Sea: Elucidation through mesocosm experiments
(Elsevier, 2021)
Oligotrophic waters (OW), generally favour longer food chain facilitated by the microbial loop. In such ecosystems, physical mixing (e.g. upwelling, and winter convection) inject nutrients and propagules from subsurface ...
Elevated acidification rates due to deposition of atmospheric pollutants in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(AGU Wiley, 2021)
Human inputs of pollutants to the atmosphere and subsequent deposition may decrease pH in the coastal waters. Significant rate of decrease in pH and increase in pCO2 by 3-5 times is noticed in the coastal Bay of Bengal ...
East India Coastal Current controls the dissolved inorganic carbon in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2018)
Monthly variations in dissolved inorganic components (DIC) were measured in the coastal waters off Visakhapatnam in the western Bay of Bengal (BoB) to examine the controlling factors on their distribution and fluxes to the ...
Physical forcing controls spatial variability in primary production in the Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2021)
In order to examine the spatial variability and controlling factors of primary production in the Indian Ocean, deck-incubation primary production (13C method) and hydrographic properties were measured at 25 locations during ...
Phosphate removal through adsorption on suspended matter in the Bay of Bengal: Possible implications to primary production
(Springer, 2021)
Low primary production in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) could not be explained as this region receives nutrients from atmospheric deposition, rivers, eddies, and mixing due to depression/cyclones. In addition to nutrients, BoB ...
