Importance of contextual information for harnessing microbial resources from polar regions
(LIGHTS Research Foundation, 2013)
With growing interest in scientific and commercial pursuits extending up to the poles, new challenges for both environmental diplomacy and governance could be envisaged. Polar regions could be veritable store house for ...
Seafloor classification using echo- waveforms: A method employing hybrid neural network architecture
(IEEE, 2004)
This letter presents seafloor classification study results of a hybrid artificial neural network architecture known as learning vector quantization. Single beam echo-sounding backscatter waveform data from three different ...
Why is Bay of Bengal warmer than Arabian Sea during the summer monsoon?
(School of Naval Oceanology and Meteorology, India, 2004)
The near-surface Bay of Bengal remains significantly warmer than the Arabian Sea during summer monsoon (June-September). Analysis of the heat budgets of the near-surface Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal shows significant ...
Cellular response of Brevibacterium casei #NIOSBA88 to arsenic and chromium- a proteomic approach
(Springer, 2020)
Cellular response against different heavy metal stress differs with the metal. Arsenic and chromium are heavy metals and toxic to living systems. The concentration of these metals in seawater is very low. However, due to ...
