Effects of benzo(k)fluoranthene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon on DNA damage, lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress in marine gastropod Morula granulata
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
Benzo(k)fluoranthene [B(k)F] is one of the widespread priority pollutants of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that has been scarcely studied for exposure assessment. With studies reporting a high amount B(k)F in sediments ...
Submarine groundwater discharge and nutrient addition to the coastal zone of the Godavari estuary
(Elsevier, 2015)
Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) represents a significant pathway of materials between land and sea, especially as it supplies nutrients, carbon and trace metals to coastal waters. To estimate SGD fluxes to the Godavari ...
Conidial germination of marine-derived fungi under simulated deep-sea conditions in the presence of inducers
(2019)
The abilities of conidia of four deep-sea fungi, Aspergillus flavus NIOCC20, A. sydowii CH2, A. terreus A4636 and Penicillium sp. A4623 and one terrestrial fungus, A. terreus MTCC479 to germinate under simulated deep-sea ...
Dynamics of sea-ice biogeochemistry in the coastal Antarctica during transition from summer to winter
(Elsevier, 2017)
The seasonality of carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO<sub>2</sub>), air-sea CO<sub>2</sub> fluxes and associated environmental parameters were investigated in the Antarctic coastal waters. The in-situ survey was carried ...
ELISA detection of vitellogenin in the haemolymph of Penaeus monodon (Fabricius, 1798) (Caridea: Penaeidae): indirect indicator of female maturity
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Developing a non-lethal method for analysis of female reproductive maturity will be more accurate and less invasive than assessing maturity through gonad biopsy. Quantification of the expression levels of vitellogenin (Vg) ...
Oblique strike-slip motion off the Southeastern Continental Margin of India: Implication for the separation of Sri Lanka from India
(Pergamon, 2018)
The ocean floor in the Bay of Bengal has evolved after the breakup of India from Antarctica since the Early Cretaceous. Recent geophysical investigations including updated satellite derived gravity map postulated two phases ...
Aerobic microbial communities in the sediments of a marine oxygen minimum zone
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020)
The ecology of aerobic microorganisms is never explored in marine oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) sediments. Here we reveal aerobic bacterial communities along ~3�m sediment-horizons of the eastern Arabian Sea OMZ. Sulfide-containing ...
Biological responses to disturbance from simulated deep-sea polymetallic nodule mining
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
Commercial-scale mining for polymetallic nodules could have a major impact on the deep-sea environment, but the effects of these mining activities on deep-sea ecosystems are very poorly known. The first commercial test ...
Bacterial Communities Associated With Healthy and Diseased (Skeletal Growth Anomaly) Reef Coral Acropora cytherea From Palk Bay, India
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020)
Skeletal growth anomalies (SGA) are easily recognizable disease in reef-forming corals which drain energy from the host and end up with mortality. We collected mucus samples of healthy and SGA affected colonies of Acropora ...
Crustal architecture and rift tectonics across the Visakhapatnam Bay basin, central-east Indian margin: Insights from multichannel seismic and potential field data
(2019)
The Visakhapatnam Bay (VB) basin is a passive margin rift basin located at the non-basinal segment of the Eastern Continental Margin of India (ECMI) and formed during the rift-drift events associated with the breakup of ...
