Beach dynamics and oscillations of shoreline position in recent years at Miramar Beach, Goa, India: a study from a GPR survey.
(Springer, 2014)
Consideration of human influences is crucial to understanding the coastal sediment supply and associated shoreline responses prior to undertaking coastal hazard management studies. Observation of the widening of some ...
Sulfide oxidizing activity as a survival strategy in mangrove clam Polymesoda erosa (Solander, 1786)
(Bionano Frontier, 2013)
The clam Polymesoda erosa is a large dioceous bivalve mollusk found in the mangroves restricted in high tidal Avicennia sp. zone of the mangrove forest. The present study was aimed at understanding the occurrence of P. ...
Hydrography and circulation off the west coast of India during the southwest monsoon 1987
(Yale University, 1990)
A summer monsoon pump to keep the Bay of Bengal salty
(American Geophysical Union, 2013)
The Bay of Bengal receives a large influx of freshwater from precipitation and river discharge. Outflow of excess freshwater and inflow of saltier water is required to prevent the bay from freshening. Relatively fresh water ...
Two decades of Indian research on Ninetyeast Ridge reveal how seafloor spreading and mantle plume activities have shaped the eastern Indian Ocean.
(Current Science Association, 2014)
It is widely accepted that the Ninetyeast Ridge ridge is a product of volcanic trace of the Kerguelen mantle plume (hot spot) on the northward-drifting Indian plate between ~85 and 42 Ma. Studies carried out from the early ...
Microbially mediated redox transformations of manganese (II) along with some other trace elements: a study from Antarctic lakes
(Springer, 2009)
The significance of freshwater systems in global manganese cycles is well appreciated. Yet, the polar systems, which encompass the largest freshwater repository in the world, have been least studied for their role in ...
Organic matter - A key factor in controlling mercury distribution in estuarine sediment
(Elsevier, 2015)
Organic matter (OM) was found to play an important role in controlling mercury (Hg) distribution and speciation in estuarine sediment of the Vembanad Lake. The sedimentary organic carbon (OC) from the northern part of the ...
Weekly observations on dispersal and sink pathways of the terrigenous flux of the Ganga-Brahmaputra in the Bay of Bengal during NE monsoon
(Elsevier, 2005)
The analyses of 64 sequential satellite images (October 1999-March 2001) of Indian Remote Sensing Satellite IRS-P4 ocean color monitor (OCM) (bands around 490, 555, and 670 nm) for total suspended matter (TSM), synchronous ...

(IJSR, 2014)
Yellowfin tuna Thunnus albacares is an epipelagic, oceanic species of family Scombridae, found in tropical and subtropical region of the Pacific, Atlantic and the Indian Ocean. It is a commercially important fish species. ...
Bio-screening of a few green seaweeds from India for their cytotoxic and antioxidant potential
(Society of Chemical Industry, 2011)
Seaweeds, raw, cooked, or dried, are used as food in many cultures, although not very popularly in India. Globally, several studies have indicated that seaweeds are a rich source of phenolic compounds and have antioxidant ...
