A study of meteorologically and seismically induced water level and water temperature oscillations in an estuary located on the west coast of India (Arabian Sea)
(The European Geosciences Union, 2012)
The study examines the observed storm-generated sea-level oscillations (June 2007 and November 2009) during the Sumatra geophysical tsunami (September 2007), indicating similarities in the sea-level response in the Mandovi ...
Anaerobic carbon mineralisation through sulphate reduction in the inner shelf sediments of eastern Arabian sea
(Springer, 2017)
Monsoon-induced coastal upwelling, land run-off, benthic and atmospheric inputs make the western Indian shelf waters biologically productive that is expected to lead to high rates of mineralisation of organic matter (OM) ...
Investigations on a large collection of cosmic dust from the central Indian Ocean.
(Springer, 2010)
We collected 1,245 spherules from the Central Indian Ocean basin by Magnetic cosmic dust collection (MACDUC) experiment raking the deep sea floor. This collection ranks among the large deep sea collections of cosmic dust. ...
Detection of Trichodesmium bloom patches along the eastern Arabian Sea by IRS-P4/OCM ocean color sensor and by in-situ measurements
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2005)
The detection of blooms of the marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium from space has been studied using high resolution ocean color imagery in the visible wavebands of the OCM monitor (Ocean Color Monitor) on the IRS-P4 ...
Assimilation potential of water column biota: Mesocosm-based evaluations
(Tata Energy Research Institute, India, 2003)
This chapter presents a generalized picture of various aspects of assimilation by native biota and underscores the importance of safeguarding the environment from excessive discharge of nutrient-rich effluents, even though ...
Deep-sea mining: Economic, technical, technological, and environmental considerations for sustainable development
(Marine Technology Society, 2011)
Mining of minerals such as polymetallic nodules from the deep-sea floor has been "on-hold" as a result of several factors such as current availability of Cu, Ni, Co and Mn from terrestrial sources and their fluctuating ...
Biomarkers of petroleum contamination in the digestive gland of Perna viridis (L.)
(The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2012)
Oxidative stress responses were evaluated in the digestive gland tissue of Perna viridis exposed to water accommodated fractions (WAFs) of petrol and diesel at 0.5 percent and 5 percent concentrations over 5-, 10-, and ...
Optical closure of apparent optical properties in coastal waters off Goa
(Indian Society of Remote Sensing, 2015)
Inherent and apparent optical properties were measured for coastal waters off Goa, a site on the west coast of India using the in-situ measuring profiling optical instruments. The optical closure was obtained using the ...
Anti-proliferative and angio-suppressive effect of Stoechospermum marginatum (C. Agardh) Kutzing extract using various experimental models.
(Korean Nutrition Society and the Korean Society of Community Nutrition, 2014)
Abundant consumption of seaweeds in the diet is epidemiologically linked to the reduction in risk of developing cancer. In larger cases, however, identification of particular seaweeds that are accountable for these effects ...
Reconstruction of depositional environment of a tropical estuary and response of δ <sup>13</sup> C<sub>org</sub> and TOC/TN signatures to changing environmental conditions
(Elsevier, 2014)
The distribution of sediment components, organic carbon, aluminium normalized metals, bulk sedimentary organic stable carbon isotope ratios i.e. δ<sup>13</sup> c<sub>org</sub> and elemental TOC/TN ratios were studied within ...
