Research and development for coastal zone
(International Ocean Institute, Madras, India, 1996)
Hypoxia in the changing marine environment
(IOP Publishing, 2013)
The predicted future of the global marine environment, as a combined result of forcing due to climate change (e.g. warming and acidification) and other anthropogenic perturbation (e.g. eutrophication), presents a challenge ...
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 ...
Denitrification rates and excess nitrogen gas concentrations in the Arabian Sea oxygen deficient zone
(Elsevier, 2006)
Rates of canonical, i.e. heterotrophic, water-column denitrification were measured by sup(15)N incubation techniques at a number of coastal and open ocean stations in the Arabian Sea. Measurements of N2 :Ar gas ratios were ...
Variation in the Indian summer monsoon intensity during the Bolling-Allerod and Holocene
(American Geophysical Union, 2013)
Variations in the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) intensity during the last 16.7 ka have been studied using organic carbon (C<sub>org</sub>), delta <sup>15</sup>N of sedimentary organic matter, CaCO<sub>3</sub>, sediment ...
Isotopic composition of nitrate and particulate organic matter in a pristine dam reservoir of western India: Implications for biogeochemical processes
(European Geosciences Union, 2017)
Isotopic composition of nitrate (δ<sup>15</sup>N and δ<sup>18</sup>O) and particulate organic matter (POM; δ<sup>15</sup>N and δ<sup>13</sup>C) were measured in the Tillari Reservoir, located at the ...
Understanding our seas: National Institute of Oceanography, Goa
(Current Science Association, 2015)
The present article summarizes the research done at the CSIR–National Institute of Oceanography in 2014 in ocean science, resources and technology. Significant research has been conducted on air–sea interactions and coastal ...
Sedimentary pigments and nature of organic matter within the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) of the Eastern Arabian Sea (Indian margin)
(Elsevier, 2016)
Sedimentary pigments, carbon and nitrogen content and their stable isotopes were studied in three short cores collected from the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) of the Eastern Arabian Sea (EAS). Nine pigments including chlorophyll ...
Nitrogen fixation rates in the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2017)
The Arabian Sea experiences bloom of the diazotroph Trichodesmium during certain times of the year when optimal sea surface temperature and oligotrophic condition favour their growth. We measured nitrogen fixation rates ...
Effect of salinity induced pH/alkalinity changes on benthic foraminifera: A laboratory culture experiment
(Elsevier, 2015)
The salinity of coastal waters in the vicinity of seasonally fresh water fed estuaries changes tremendously and reportedly affects the living calcite secreting organisms like foraminifera, as well as their dead remains. ...
