Potential impact of sand mining on macrobenthic community at Kalbadevi Beach, Ratnagiri, West coast of India
(Allied, India, 2005)
The intertidal area at Kalbadevi, Ratnagiri has been identified as one of the potential sites for placer minerals along the west coast of India. Considering the prospects of commercial mining, benthic sampling was conducted ...
Abundance of thraustochytridsand bacteria in the equatorial Indian Ocean, in relation totransparent exopolymeric particles (TEPs)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2008)
Thraustochytrid protists are often abundant in coastal waters. However, their population dynamics and substrate preferences in the oceanic water column are poorly understood.We studied the abundance and distribution of ...
Marine vehicle path following using inner-outer loop control.
(IFAC International Conference, 2009)
This paper addresses the problem of marine vehicle path following using innerouter loop control, with due account for the vehicle dynamics. We propose an inner-outer control structure that lends itself to a simple intuitive ...
Marine Robots : Applications in Marine Archaeology
(Agam Kala Prakashan, New Delhi, 2015)
This article explains how underwater robots have the potential to become companions (buddies) to divers, effectively assisting them by carrying tools and instrumentation and taking high resolution images under the commands ...
Seabed resident event driven profiling system (SREP). Concept, design and tests
(IEEE, 2016)
The seabed resident event driven profiling system (SREP) described here offers a novel, optimized approach to profiling in coastal waters from seabed to sea surface during the rough seas encountered in the southwest monsoon ...
Use of marine robot`MAYA` for monitoring the Zuari and Mandovi esturine systems
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 2015)
Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASVs) are gaining popularity among oceanographic, meteorological and defense research organizations (Motwani, 2012). The Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, MAYA designed and built at CSIR-NIO (Desa, ...
Abundance and characteristics of microplastics in commercially important bottom dwelling finfishes and shellfish of the Vembanad Lake, India
(Elsevier, 2021)
This paper characterize microplastics (MPs) in the heavily urbanized, brackish water Vembanad Lake (India), focussing on some commercially important bottom-feeding fishes and shellfish (Arius maculatus, Etroplus suratensis, ...
Acquisition of bioluminescent trait by non-luminous organisms from luminous organisms through various origins
(Springer Nature, 2021)
Bioluminescence is a natural light emitting phenomenon that occurs due to a chemical reaction between luciferin and luciferase. It is primarily an innate and inherited trait in most terrestrial luminous organisms. However, ...
A numerical investigation on the tide-induced residence time and its association with the suspended sediment concentration in Gulf of Khambhat, northern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
A 2D-numerical model is used to estimate suspended sediment (SS) transport and residence time (RT) of the Gulf of Khambhat (Gulf). Tidal current, as well as bottom topography, play a key role in sediment entrapment inside ...
Circulation in the Gulf of Khambhat - A Lagrangian Perspective
(2020)
The circulation of the Gulf of Khambhat (GoK) is studied from a Lagrangian point of view using a 2D numerical model. The model-predicted tide elevation and current speed are in agreement with the observations. Seasonal ...
