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 ...
Processes controlling the surface temperature signature of the Madden–Julian Oscillation in the thermocline ridge of the Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2011)
During boreal winter, there is a prominent maximum of intraseasonal sea-surface temperature (SST) variability associated with the Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) along a Thermocline Ridge located in the southwestern Indian ...
Nature and sources of suspended particulate organic matter in a tropical estuary during the monsoon and pre-monsoon: Insights from stable isotopes (delta 13C POC, delta 15 N TPN) and carbohydrate signature compounds
(Elsevier, 2012)
Mandovi estuary, on the west coast of India, behaves like a fresh water system during the monsoon (June to September), and as a marine system during the pre-monsoon (October to May). The effect of these contrasting conditions ...
Environmental set-up and tidal propagation in a tropical estuary with dual connection to the sea (SW Coast of India)
(Springer-Verlag, 2012)
The Kochi Backwater (KB) is the second largest wetland system in India. It is connected to the sea at Fort Kochi and Munambam (Pallipuram) (30 km north of Kochi). As the tide is forced through two openings, its propagation ...
Carbon dioxide observations at Cape Rama, India for the period 1993–2002: implications for constraining Indian emissions
(Current Science Association, 2011)
India has the second largest population, one of fastest growing economies and is ranked third in greenhouse gas emissions by fossil-fuel burning in the world. However, there has been little monitoring of atmospheric CO ...
Variations in nearshore waves along Karnataka, west coast of India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2012)
Wind wave spectra were recorded simultaneously at three shallow (water depth 7–9 m) locations (Malpe, Honnavar and Karwar) along the 200 km stretch of the state of Karnataka in 2009 during 27 April–24 May (representing ...
Interannual and seasonal variations in nearshore wave characteristics off Honnavar, west coast of India
(Current Science Association, 2012)
Interannual and seasonal variations in nearshore surface wave parameters over a period of three years (March 2008 - March 2011) were examined based on the measured wave data at 9 m water depth off Honnavar, west coast of ...
Gut fluorescence analysis of barnacle larvae: An approach to quantify the ingested food
(Elsevier, 2012)
Gut fluorescence analysis can provide a snapshot of ingested food and has been employed in feeding studies of various organisms. In this study we standardized the gut fluorescence method using laboratory-reared barnacle ...
A decade of physical and biogeochemical measurements in the Northern Indian Ocean.
(ESA Publication, 2010)
The northern Indian Ocean consists of two tropical basins (Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal) and the equatorial region that comes under the influence of monsoonal wind reversal. We present the results from three Indian ...
Processes of 30–90 days sea surface temperature variability in the northern Indian Ocean during boreal summer
(Springer-Verlag, 2012)
During summer, the northern Indian Ocean exhibits significant atmospheric intraseasonal variability associated with active and break phases of the monsoon in the 30–90 days band. In this paper, we investigate mechanisms ...
