Carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide in the Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 1993)
This review concentrates on some aspects of biogeochemical cycling of carbon and nitrogen in the Arabian Sea with emphasis on the atmospheric fluxes of CO sub(2) and N sub(2)O. The Arabian Sea appears to serve as a net ...
A comparative study of Pleistocene phosphorites from the continental slope off western India
(Blackwell, 2000)
Two types of phosphorite recovered from the continental slope off western India are described. The first type, phosphorite 1, comprises a hard, grey nodule composed of carbonate fluorapatite (CFA) and calcite as major ...
Respiration rates in subsurface waters of the northern Indian Ocean: Evidence for low decomposition rates of organic matter within the water column in the Bay of Bengal
(Pergamon, 1996)
Depth profiles of activity of the respirtory Electron Transport System (ETS) have been generated at several locations in the northern Indian Ocean. The results reveal much lower ETS activities in subsurface waters of the ...
An intermediate nepheloid layer associated with high microbial metabolic rates and denitrification in the northwest Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 1993)
Extensive optical, physical chemical, and biochemical measurements made simultaneously in the northwest Indian Ocean reveal the occurrence of an intermediate nepheloid layer (INL) invariably associated with the secondary ...
CO sub(2) and N sub(2) O fluxes from the northern Indian Ocean
(Narosa, New Delhi (India), 1998)
The CO sub(2) and N sub(2)O in the north Indian Ocean were measured and their fluxes were evaluated. Samples were collected from the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. The water samples were analysed for dissolved oxygen, ...
A sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide in the northeast Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 1996)
Intensive observations in the northeast Indian Ocean (Bay of Bengal) during the pre-southwest and northeast monsoon seasons 1991 reveal that freshwater discharge from rivers of the Indian subcontinent exerts the dominant ...
Carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide in the North Indian Ocean
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1995)
The understanding of biogeochemical cycling of carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide in the oceans is essential for predicting the fate of anthropogenically emitted components. The North Indian Ocean, with its diverse regimes, ...
A study of the carbon dioxide system in the northern Indian Ocean during premonsoon
(Elsevier, 1994)
Extensive data sets on the carbon dioxide system in the northern Indian Ocean have been obtained during the premonsoon season. A marked increase (~50 ~kM) in the total carbon dioxide (TCO@d2@@) content is observedin deep ...
Nitrous oxide in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 1994)
Extensive observations on nitrous oxide (N@d2@@O) in the atmosphere and waters of the western Bay of Bengal during March-April 1991 yield surface saturations and atmospheric fluxes ranging from 89.3 to 213.9% (mean 125.2%), ...
