Fine-grained volatile components ubiquitous in solar nebula: Corroboration from scoriaceous cosmic spherules
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)
The scoriaceous cosmic spherules (CSs) that make up to a few percent (for sizes >150 -m size) of total micrometeorite flux are ubiquitous and have remained enigmatic. The present work provides in-depth study of 81 scoriaceous ...
Bacterial diversity associated with a newly described bioeroding sponge, Cliona thomasi, from the coral reefs on the West Coast of India
(Springer, 2021)
The bacterial diversity associated with eroding sponges belonging to the Cliona viridis species complex is scarcely known. Cliona thomasi described from the West Coast of India is a new introduction to the viridis species ...
Particulate Organic Carbon Composition in Temperature Fronts of the Northeastern Arabian Sea during Winter
(Wiley, 2018)
In order to understand the major sources of particulate organic carbon (POC) in the frontal zones and to examine their variability with space and time, a total of five temperature fronts of different ages was sampled in ...
234-Th-Based Carbon Export Flux Along the Indian GEOTRACES GI02 Section in the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)
234-Th (t1/2 = 24.1 d), present in seawater, is a naturally occurring particle-reactive radionuclide formed through the radioactive decay of its parent, 238U (t1/2 = 4.47 x 109 years). The 234Th:238U disequilibrium is ...
Assessing the environmental significance of benthic foraminiferal morpho-groups from the northern high latitudinal regions
(Elsevier, 2018)
The spatial distribution of benthic foraminiferal morpho-groups has been documented from the Kongsfjorden-Krossfjorden, to assess its environmental significance. Benthic foraminiferal abundance increases from the inner-most ...
Estuarine turbidity maximum in six tropical minor rivers, central west coast of India
(IWA Publishing, 2018)
Understanding patterns of erosion and sedimentation and their driving mechanisms is important for formulating a variety of estuarine management issues (conservation, shoreline protection, navigation, dredging and embanking). ...
Indian monsoon variability in the last 2000 years as inferred from benthic foraminifera
(Elsevier, 2018)
The effect of ambient conditions on living (Rose-Bengal stained) benthic foraminifera has been studied from the shelf and slope of the central-western Bay of Bengal to assess the applicability of temporal changes in benthic ...
Behaviour of trace metals in the anoxic environment of Veraval harbour, India
(Elsevier, 2018)
The purpose of the present study is to investigate the behaviour of trace metals in anoxic environment. Water column of the harbour was found to be anoxic (DO <0.2mgl-1) with high concentration of NH4+-N (av. 459±21-moll-1) ...
Morphological characteristics of bioaerosols from contrasting locations in southern tropical India - A case study
(Elsevier, 2015)
Bioaerosols, which are ubiquitous in the earth`s atmosphere, are poorly characterized in terms of their physical and chemical properties Improved knowledge of their physical and chemical properties is essential to have a ...
Mesoscale process-induced variation of the West India coastal current during the winter monsoon
(Springer, 2015)
This manuscript presents the analysis of current meter records at Kollam and Kannur along the 20-m isobaths during November-December 2005 Currents in the coastal waters are strongly influenced by winds (both local and ...
