Molecular characteristics of sedimentary organic matter in controlling mercury (Hg) and elemental mercury (Hg0) distribution in tropical estuarine sediments
(Elsevier, 2019)
Sedimentary organic matter (SOM) plays an important role in hosting and reducing HgII in marine/estuarine sediment. This study provides a better understanding on the influence of nature of SOM, in regulating sedimentary ...
Oxygen isotopic and chemical composition of chromites in micrometeorites: Evidence of ordinary chondrite precursors
(2019)
We identified 66 chromite grains from 42 of ~5000 micrometeorites collected from Indian Ocean deep-sea sediments and the South Pole water well. To determine the chromite grains precursors and their contribution to the ...
Consistency of wave power at a location in the coastal waters of central eastern Arabian Sea
(2019)
Wave energy assessment at a regional scale is required for planning installation of wave energy converters. Based on continuously measured wave data at 14-m water depth in the central eastern Arabian Sea from January 2011 ...
Anti-Biofilm Activity of Biosurfactant Derived from Halomonas sp., a Lipolytic Marine Bacterium from the Bay of Bengal
(2019)
Abstract: Halophilic bacteria isolated from sediment samples of five oil drilling sites in the Bay of Bengal (BOB) were screened for their biosurfactant-producing ability and for lipase production. The anti-biofilm activity ...
Reconstruction of Late Pleistocene and Holocene Sea Level Curve for the East Coast of India
(2019)
Holocene sea level curve has been generated for the East Coast of India. About seventy five 14C dates which are available from published works on coastal plains and offshore regions of the East Coast were considered and ...
Impact of monsoon-induced discharge on phytoplankton community structure in the tropical Indian estuaries
(2019)
To understand the influence of monsoon-induced river discharge and associated environmental changes on phytoplankton community structure in the Indian estuaries, physical and biogeochemical parameters were collected from ...
Geochemical characteristics of submarine rhyolitic pumice from Andaman subduction zone: Inferences on magmatism and tectonics of north?eastern Indian Ocean
(2019)
This paper reports new geochemical data for submarine volcanic pumice sampled from two volcanoes (SM?1 and SV?1) which are part of the Andaman subduction system. SM?1 volcano is located closer to the Andaman back?arc ...
Role of eddies in structuring the mesozooplankton composition in coastal waters of the western Bay of Bengal
(2019)
The mesozooplankton community structure of a cold core eddy, moving through a coastal location (Bheemunipatnam) in the western Bay of Bengal (BoB), was studied continuously for 17 days (21st February to 8th March 2016) ...
Is there an effect of Bay of Bengal salinity on the northern Indian Ocean climatological rainfall?
(2019)
The northern Bay of Bengal (BoB) receives a large amount of freshwater directly from monsoonal rains over the ocean, and indirectly through river runoffs. It has been proposed that the resulting strong salinity stratification ...
Neuroendocrine and immunotoxicity of polyaromatic hydrocarbon, chrysene in crustacean post larvae
(2019)
Polyaromatic hydrocarbons are a group of chemical pollutants which cause a significant threat to the living organisms in estuaries and marine ecosystems. We report the effect of chrysene, a major PAH pollutant found in ...
