Bioactive Trace Elements' Composition and Their Fractional Solubility in Aerosols from the Arabian Sea during the Southwest Monsoon
(American Chemical Society, 2022)
Atmospheric dust deposition supplies a significant amount of macro- and micronutrients to surface ocean water, thus playing a vital role in modulating phytoplankton growth.In this context, we measured soluble and total ...
Climatology and variability of wind speeds along the southwest coast of India derived from Climate Forecast System Reanalysis winds
(Wiley, 2022)
Wind climate along the southwest coast of India (Kerala coast) has been analysed using 41 years of Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) winds to delineate long-term trends and variability.The study reveals significant ...
Records of Sea Slug Fauna (Gastropoda: Heterobranchia) from the shores of Goa, Eastern Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2022)
Heterobranch sea slugs are a group of often vibrantly coloured, shell-less, and soft-bodied molluscs which are also indicators of climate change and a source of natural products.The information on sea slug diversity and ...
Glacial-interglacial differences in carbonate burial in the equatorial Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2022)
To understand the variations in carbonate burial for the last 30 kiloannum (ka), we have utilized a core from the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP), Site716A (04.56�N and 73.17�E) retrieved from a water depth of 533~m from the ...
Relics of 2.6-2.5~Ga oceanic crust from the ultramafic-mafic complex of Goa, western India: Magmatic response to a progressive subduction system
(Elsevier, 2022)
Subduction initiation in the Early Earth and the onset of plate tectonics are topics of wide interest in understanding the formation and evolution of continents and supercontinents on our planet.Here we report results from ...
Melt generation and trace element fractionation of intermediate arc magma from Andaman subduction zone
(Elsevier, 2022)
The submarine volcanoes, located in the southern part of Andaman Sea, north eastern Indian Ocean, result from the subduction of the Indo-Australian Plate beneath the Southeast Asian Plate and represent one of the less ...
Triterpenoids and fatty alcohols as indicators of mangrove derived organic matter in Northern Kerala Coast, India
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Triterpenoids and fatty alcohols were identified from the sediments of five mangrove ecosystems (Kunjimangalam, Pazhayangadi, Pappinissery, Thalassery, and Kadalundi) in the northern Kerala coast, India, to illustrate the ...
Are Artificial Barrages Necessary to Prevent Saline Incursion? A Modelling Approach to Restore the Healthy Ecosystem of the Vembanad Lake
(Springer, 2022)
The Thanneermukkom Bund was constructed to prevent salt water intrusion in the low lying areas of the Kuttanad region which increase the paddy cultivation twice in a year.Without it, paddy cultivation would be limited to ...
Tracing terrestrial versus marine sources of dissolved organic carbon in the largest monsoonal Godavari estuary in India using stable carbon isotopes
(Elsevier, 2022)
To examine the sources of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and its modifications within the estuary, time-series sampling was conducted at 10 stations covering the entire salinity range in the Godavari estuary.The salinity ...
Satellite-based spectral mapping (ASTER and landsat data) of mineralogical signatures of beach sediments: A precursor insight
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Detailed investigation on texture and mineralogy of beach sediments helps to understand their nature of deposition and potential targets of strategic mineral deposits.The beach sediments from the coast of Thiruvananthapuram, ...
