Sources, distribution and preservation of organic matter in a tropical estuary (Godavari, India)
(Springer, 2015)
Major sources and distribution of organic matter (OM) were examined in a tropical monsoonal estuary, the Godavari, using content and isotopic signatures in suspended particulate matter and surface sediments during no-discharge ...
Marine actinobacteria showing phosphate-solubilizing efficiency in Chorao Island, Goa, India
(Springer, 2013)
The occurrence and distribution of an actinobacteria group of bacteria capable of dissolving insoluble phosphates were investigated in this study in marine environments, especially in sediments of Chorao Island, Goa, India. ...
Taluka level environmental sensitivity index (ESI) and vulnerability mapping for oil spills: A pilot study from Goa state, India
(Sultan Qaboos Univ., 2010)
Coastlines are at risk when floating oil slicks reach the shoreline. Oil spill causes major stress on the marine environment. To deal with oil spill problem in the coastal area, Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) maps ...
Vulnerability of semi-enclosed marine systems to environmental disturbances
(Island Press, 2009)
Semi-enclosed marine systems (SEMSs) are impacted on time scales ranging from the
very short (days or less) to the very long (decades and beyond) by many of the same forces and stresses as other components of the Earth ...
Bioactive alkaloids from marine sponges
(2016)
Marine sponges are considered to be a rich source of biologically active secondary metabolites with unique and diverse chemical structures. They constitute nearly one third of the secondary metabolites isolated from marine ...
Shift in detrital sedimentation in the eastern Bay of Bengal during the late Quaternary
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2010)
Down-core variations of granulometric, geochemical and mineral magnetism of a 70-cm long sediment core retrieved from the eastern Bay of Bengal abyssal region were studied to understand sedimentation pattern and sediment ...
New sequential separation procedure for Sr, Nd and Pb isotope ratio measurement in geological material using MC-ICP-MS and TIMS
(The Geochemical Society of Japan, 2008)
A new 3-step sequential separation chemistry for Sr, Nd and Pb from silicate samples, which is suitable for isotope analysis by MC-ICP-MS as well as TIMS, has been developed. The chemistry is designed to minimize the number ...
Early maritime activities of Orissa on the east coast of India: Linkages in trade and cultural development
(Indian Society for Prehistoric and Quaternary Studies, 2002)
In the maritime history of India, Orissa (ancient Kalinga) played a significant role in spreading Indian culture to other parts of the world, including Africa, Rome and Southwest Asia. Archaeological findings, explorations ...
Surge ammonium uptake in macroalgae from a coral atoll
(Elsevier, 2006)
Surge (non-linear) uptake of ammonium, measured by incorporation of 15N, was investigated in three species of macroalgae (Ulva lactuca Linnaeus (Chlorophyta), Soliera robusta (Greville) Kylin (Rhodophyta) and Dictyota ...
Response of deep-sea macrobenthos to a small-scale environmental disturbance
(Elsevier, 2001)
To assess the possible effect of nodule mining on deep-sea environment, the Indian deep-sea environment experiment (INDEX) was undertaken in the Indian Basin. The present investigation is a part of the disturbance and ...
