Spatial variations in dissolved inorganic nutrients in the groundwaters along the Indian coast and their export to adjacent coastal waters
(Springer, 2021)
Submarine Groundwater Discharge (SGD) is one of the main external nutrient sources to the coastal waters. The concentrations of nutrients in groundwaters are a few folds higher than that of adjacent coastal waters; therefore, ...
Elevated acidification rates due to deposition of atmospheric pollutants in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(AGU Wiley, 2021)
Human inputs of pollutants to the atmosphere and subsequent deposition may decrease pH in the coastal waters. Significant rate of decrease in pH and increase in pCO2 by 3-5 times is noticed in the coastal Bay of Bengal ...
East India Coastal Current controls the dissolved inorganic carbon in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2018)
Monthly variations in dissolved inorganic components (DIC) were measured in the coastal waters off Visakhapatnam in the western Bay of Bengal (BoB) to examine the controlling factors on their distribution and fluxes to the ...
Temporal variations in the chemical composition of aerosols over the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2022)
Variations in source, ionic composition and carbonaceous components of aerosols are expected in the atmosphere due to reversing the direction of winds from winter to summer over the coastal Bay of Bengal (BoB). To examine ...
Acidification of the coastal Bay of Bengal by aerosols deposition
(Springer, 2021)
Polluted aerosol transport from South Asia containing oxides of nitrogen and sulphur and their deposition on surface may acidify coastal waters. To test this hypothesis, we have conducted experiments involving (a) variability ...
Nitrogen fixation in the western coastal Bay of Bengal: Controlling factors and contribution to primary production
(Elsevier, 2022)
N2 fixation rates were measured at 18 stations in the western coastal Bay of Bengal (BoB) to evaluate its contribution to the external source of nitrogen and its controlling factors. During the study period (fall monsoon), ...
Export fluxes of dissolved inorganic carbon to the northern Indian Ocean from the Indian monsoonal rivers
(European Geosciences Union, 2019)
Rivers are an important source of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) to the adjacent coastal waters. In order to examine the spatial variability in the distribution and major sources of DIC in the Indian monsoonal rivers and ...
Impact of atmospheric dry deposition of nutrients on phytoplankton pigment composition and primary production in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2022)
Atmospheric deposition of pollutants decreases pH and increases the nutrient concentration in the surface water.To examine its impact on coastal phytoplankton composition and primary production, monthly atmospheric aerosol ...
Modifications in the trace gases flux by a very severe cyclonic storm, Hudhud, in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(2019)
A very severe cyclonic storm, Hudhud, made landfall at Visakhapatnam city, the central east coast of India, on 12 October 2014 and it is the most destructive cyclone to ever hit the Indian subcontinent since the past two ...
Spatial variability in aerosol composition and its seawater acidification potential in coastal waters of the western coastal Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2022)
Deposition of atmospheric dust is reported to acidify surface waters in the northern Bay of Bengal (BoB).To examine the spatial variability in content and composition of total suspended matter (TSP), aerosol samples were ...
