Identification and physico-chemical characterization of microplastics in marine aerosols over the northeast Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2024)
Microplastics (MPs) in the atmosphere can undergo long-range transport from emission regions to pristine terrestrial and oceanic ecosystems. Due to their inherent toxic and hazardous characteristics, MPs pose serious risks ...
The consequences of reduced anthropogenic activities during the COVID-19 pandemic on microplastic abundance in a tropical estuarine region: Goa, India
(Elsevier, 2024)
Plastic pollution is pervasive, as it has infiltrated every corner of the planet and the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a depletion in the production, consumption, and disposal of plastics. To find out the effect of the ...
Biodegradation of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) using marine bacteria isolated from tropical beaches of megacity Mumbai
(CSIR-National Institute of Science Communication and Policy Research (NIScPR), New Delhi, 2023)
Plastics, although as useful and versatile as they are, have led to major environmental pollution. Its resistance to degradation has caused a major global threat to the environment. Plastic waste is disposed of in landfills ...
Isotopic composition of carbon and nitrogen of particulate organic matter in the Godavari estuary: Seasonality in sources and processes
(Springer, 2024)
Rivers transport organic matter originating within the estuary and terrestrial sources to the coastal ocean. The seasonal variations in the magnitude of river discharge alter the sources of particulate organic matter (POM) ...
Large shift in the upper water column characteristics of the west-central Bay of Bengal during the last glacial-interglacial transition
(Elsevier, 2024)
The upper water column structure in the Bay of Bengal is strongly influenced by the monsoon and associated processes. However, the records of variation in water column stratification during different monsoon phases, are ...
Paleodepositional and Hydrocarbon Source-Rock Characteristics of the Sonari Succession (Paleocene), Barmer Basin, NW India: Implications from Petrography and Geochemistry
(Springer, 2022)
Lignite deposits, associated with Akli Formation (Paleocene), from the Sonari mine of Barmer Basin, Rajasthan, were investigated by applying organic petrography, palynofacies, and geochemistry in order to understand the ...
Malformation in coccolithophores in low pH waters: evidences from the eastern Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2023)
Oceanic calcifying plankton such as coccolithophores is expected to exhibit sensitivity to climate change stressors such as warming and acidification. Observational studies on coccolithophore communities along with carbonate ...
Anthropogenic impact and antibiotic resistance among the indicator and pathogenic bacteria from several industrial and sewage discharge points along the coast from Pydibhimavaram to Tuni, East Coast of India
(Springer, 2023)
Increasing urbanisation and industrialisation of the Visakhapatnam region have brought domestic sewage and industrial wastewater discharge into the coastal ocean. This study examines the indicator and pathogenic bacteria�s ...
Acquisition of natural remanence in the basaltic laterites of Deccan volcanic province (India): Implications to palaeomagnetic studies in laterites
(Elsevier, 2023)
Lateritization in the Deccan basalt province (India) represents a large spectrum of chemical weathering with up to 99% CIA values and complete ferri- to antiferromagnetic transformations. We combined rock magnetic, ...
Multi-resource potentiality and multi-hazard susceptibility assessments of the central west coast of India applying machine learning and geospatial techniques
(Springer, 2023)
The understating of natural resources and hazards is very fundamental from spatial perspective to reduce loss of resource and human lives. For this, the main aim of the current research is to synthesize the three natural ...
