New sea surface salinity product in the tropical Indian Ocean estimated from outgoing longwave radiation
(Oceans 2003 MTS/IEEE Conference Committee, 2003)
The sea surface salinity (SSS) product as derived from space-borne satellite measurements of Outgoing Longwave Radiation (OLR), based on the algorithms developed by (1), is discussed for the tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) ...
Instrumental, terrestrial and marine records of the climate of South Asia during the Holocene: Present status, unresolved problems and societal aspects
(Capital Publishing Co., 2010)
A key societal aspect is to recognize the factors controlling the spatial variability and the distribution patterns of rainfall in a season, and its long as well as short term variability due to natural factors. We archive ...
Water quality and bacteriology in an aquaculture facility equipped with a new aeration system
(Springer, 2010)
The HOBAS aeration system was tested to compare changes in environmental and bacteriological parameters in ponds growing Penaeus monodon during a single production cycle. The stocking density in the aerated pond was doubled ...
Intensification of Aila (May 2009) due to a warm core eddy in the north Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2012)
A very severe cyclonic storm "Aila" hit West Bengal on 26 May 2009. The storm intensified when it encountered with a warm core (SST = 31 degrees C) anti-cyclonic eddy (ACE4) in the north Bay of Bengal. The storm intensity ...
Origin and significance of high-grade phosphorite in a sediment core from the continental slope off Goa, India
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1995)
A phosphorite crust was found at 380-390 cm depth interval of a sediment core collected from the topographic high occurring on the continental slope off Goa. This crust is fragile and grey to light brown in colour. Carbonate ...
Particle fluxes in the Bay of Bengal measurEd. by sediment traps
(Geological Survey of India, 1992)
Particle fluxes were measured between October, 1987 and March, 1988 using six automated time series sediment traps at three locations in the northern, central and southern Bay of Bengal. Particle fluxes varied between 16.8 ...
Distribution of grain size and clay minerals in sediments from the INDEX area, central Indian Basin
(Taylor and Francis, 2000)
The granulometry of 21 box core sediments from five selected sites in the Central Indian Basin (CIB) have been studied to understand the sediment size characteristics in the Pioneer area before the benthic disturbance ...
Report on the "Bay of Bengal and Monsoon Experiment (BOBMEX) - NIO component" under the Indian Climate Research Program (ICRP) (DST project file No: ES/48/ICRP/001/99) submitted to Department of Science Technology, New Delhi
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2003)
The objectives of the BOBMEX-Oceanography Component programme is to understand: (1) Variability of upper ocean currents in relation to changing wind and thermohaline forcings, (2) Upper ocean thermodynamic processes on ...
Complex interplay of physical forcing and Prochlorococcus population in ocean
(Elsevier, 2015)
Physical forcing can replenish nutrients within the mixed layer by convective mixing or via upwelling. Conventional wisdom holds this enrichment fuels phytoplankton growth, for example ventilation of subsurface water during ...
Effect of background color of tanks on growth and survival of juvenile Yellow Seahorse, Hippocampus kuda (Bleeker 1852), in the pelagic phase
(The Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 2011)
This communication reports the results of an experiment conducted to see if background tank color affects the growth and survival of juvenile H. kuda. Juveniles were reared from 0 to 21 days after birth (DAB) in one of six ...
