Budgetary and biogeochemical implications of N sub(2)O isotope signatures in the Arabian Sea
(Macmillan, 1998)
Nitrous oxide (N sub(2)O) is an important greenhouse gas that also plays a role in the chemistry of stratospheric ozone depletion, but its atmospheric budget has yet to be well-quantified sup(1-5). However, multi-isotope ...
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 ...
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 ...
Severe fish mortality associated with 'red tide' observed in the sea off Cochin
(Current Science Association, 1998)
Severe fish mortality associated with the "red tide" phenomenon caused by Noctiluca blooms was observed in the sea off Cochin, Kerala, India at depths less than 40 m. The dead fish, almost entirely comprised of the threadfin ...
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 ...
Chemical composition of precipitation in India and Nepal: A preliminary report on an Indo-Swedish Project on Atmospheric Chemistry
(Department of Meteorology; Stockholm University; Stockholm; Sweden., 1996)
Rainwater and dustfall are being collected for chemical analysis five sites in India and on e in Nepal on an event basis with wet-only and bulk collectors. Special attempts are made to obtain regionally representative ...
Nitrogen isotopic studies in the suboxic Arabian Sea
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, India, 1998)
Measurements of sup(15)N/ sup(14)N in dissolved molecular nitrogen (N sub(2)), nitrate (NO sub(3) sup(-)) and nitrous oxide (N sub(2)O) and sup(18)O/ sup(16)O in N sub(2)O [expressed as delta sup(15)N and delta sup(18)O, ...
Results are coming in from JGOFS-India cruises and collaborative projects in the Arabian Sea
(U.S. JGOFS Scientific Steering Committee, 1997)
This is a brief report of the Indian National Programmke for the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS-India). This programme involves researchers and modelers. Four laboratories are responsible for field laboratory measurement ...
Some aspects of the nitrogen cycling in the Arabian Sea
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)
Extensive observations made in the Arabian Sea establish it as one of the largest oceanic reducing sites accounting for approximately 1/3 of the global water column denitrification. Evidence for large short-term (seasonal) ...
