Increased marine production of N sub(2)O due to intensifying anoxia on the Indian continental shelf
(Macmillan, 2000)
Eutrophication of surface waters and hypoxia in bottom waters has been increasing in many coastal areas, leading to very large depletions of marine life in the affected regions. These areas of high surface productivity and ...
Atmospheric outflow of nutrients to the Bay of Bengal: Impact of anthropogenic sources..
(Elsevier, 2015)
The air–sea deposition of nutrients (N, P and Fe) to the oceanic regions locateddownwind of pollution sources in south and south-east Asia is gaining considerable attention in the present-day scenario of climate change. ...
Atmospheric deposition and surface stratification as controls of contrasting chlorophyll abundance in the North Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 2007)
Intense upwelling during summer and convection in winter are believed to drive higher biological productivity in the Arabian Sea than in the Bay of Bengal. Although the Arabian Sea receives substantial atmospheric deposition ...
Controls of dimethyl sulphide in the Bay of Bengal during BOBMEX-Pilot cruise 1998
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2000)
The air-sea exchange is one of the main mechanisms maintaining the abundances of trace gases in the atmosphere. Some of these, such as carbon dioxide and dimethyl sulphide (DMS), will have a bearing on the atmospheric heat ...
Variability in stratification and flushing times of the Gautami-Godavari estuary, India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2015)
In order to examine the influence of forcing (river flow and tides) and anthropogenic activities (dredging and dam regulation) on stratification, a study was conducted over a period of 19 months (June 2008– December 2009) ...
Spatial variations in time-integrated plankton metabolic rates in Sagami Bay using triple oxygen isotopes and O2:Ar ratios
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 2008)
Plankton metabolic rates, such as rates of gross, net community production and community respiration, were measured in the surface waters using triple oxygen isotopes and O2 : Ar ratios. The 17 delta anomaly showed clear ...
Organic Nutrients Support High Primary Production in the Bay of Bengal
(2019)
The Bay of Bengal (BoB) is known to experience low productivity but high sinking carbon fluxes to the bottom, and this paradox is attributed to mineral ballast of organic matter. We found for the first time that primary ...
Estimating of gas transfer velocity using triple isotopes of dissolved oxygen.
(Springer, 2010)
The atmosphere-ocean exchange of climatically important gases is determined by the transfer velocity (k) and concentration gradient across the interface. Based on observations in the northwestern subarctic Pacific and ...
Influence of river discharge on zooplankton diet in the Godavari estuary (Bay of Bengal, Indian Ocean)
(Italian Association of Limnology and Oceanology, Pavia, Italy, 2018)
In estuaries, detrital (i.e., non-living) organic matter (OM) contributes significantly to the particulate organic matter (POM) pool and we hypothesize that it may be a major source of estuarine zooplankton diet. To test ...
Modifications in the trace gases flux by a very severe cyclonic storm, Hudhud, in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(2019)
A very severe cyclonic storm, Hudhud, made landfall at Visakhapatnam city, the central east coast of India, on 12 October 2014 and it is the most destructive cyclone to ever hit the Indian subcontinent since the past two ...
