Environmental isotopes to test hypotheses for fluid mud (mud bank) generation mechanisms along the southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2015)
Occurrence of fluid mud (mud banks) in the southwest coast of India is an enigma for the scientific community. Over the years, several multi-disciplinary studies were conducted and various hypotheses were postulated on the ...
Adaptive wave filtering for dynamic positioning of marine vessels using maximum likelihood identification: Theory and experiments
(International Federation of Automatic Control, 2013)
This paper addresses a filtering problem that arises in the design of dynamic positioning systems for ships and offshore rigs subjected to the influence of sea waves. The dynamic model of the vessel captures explicitly the ...
Paleomagnetic record for the past 80 ka from the Mahanadi basin, Bay of Bengal
(Pergamon, 2018)
High resolution paleomagnetic investigations were performed on a 50.08 m long sediment core (MD161/20) from Mahanadi basin, Bay of Bengal. Core yielded reliable paleomagnetic results for top 20 m below seafloor (mbsf) which ...
Secondary metabolites from the gorgonian Echinomuraceae splendens (Thomson and Simson)
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2002)
Two xanthine derivatives, caffeine (1,3,7-trimethyl-xanthine 1) and its 2-O-methyl analog 2, N-methylpyrazole-5-carboxylic acid 3 and a tetrahydroxysterol, 1b, 3b, 5a, 6b-tetrahydro-xycholes-ane 4 have been isolated from ...
Characteristics of shallow water waves off the central west coast of India before, during and after the onset of the Indian summer monsoon
(Elsevier, 2015)
We studied the wave characteristics before, during and after the onset of the Indian summer monsoon based on data measured using the buoy moored at 3 locations off the central west coast of India. The study reveals the ...
Remote sensing of coastal and ocean studies
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 1990)
Acoustic characteristics of the water of the Bay of Bengal
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)
Acoustic eigen rays (rays connecting the source and receiver) have been indentified and their turning depth, path length, travel time etc. evaluated. Acoustic intensity loss due to mean environmental conditions, vergence ...
Oceanographic evidences of the great floods in 2,000 and 1,500 BC documented in archaeological records
(Aditya Prakashan, New Delhi, 1992)
Based on the artifacts, a number of climatic changes in the past are documented in archaeological investigations which are reported to have been the causes for the rise and fall of human civilizations. The credibility of ...
Low-input Modified Extensive Shrimp Culture System for Penaeus monodon Restrian Vibriosis
(BioPublisher, 2013)
It was hypothesized that an outbreak of vibriosis can be restrained in ponds with a low stocking density (~5 post-larvae m<sup>-2</sup>) till harvest. Therefore, during a 135 day production cycle of Penaeus monodon at an ...
Phytoplankton diversity, biomass, and production
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2007)
Mandovi-Zuari (M-Z) estuarine system, Goa, India experiences large variations in freshwater input, land runoff and seawater input in different seasons. The changes in input of these waters are also influenced by tides. In ...
