Significantly dominant warm-core eddies: An ecological indicator of the basin-scale low biological production in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)
This paper introduces the cumulative impact of cyclonic (cold-core) and anticyclonic (warm-core) eddies on the distribution of phytoplankton biomass in the Bay of Bengal (BoB). Estimations of the ocean surface eddy features ...
Response of microplankton size structure to summer stratification, freshwater influx and coastal upwelling in the Southeastern Arabian Sea
(2020)
A year-round FlowCAM-based study of micro-plankton (20-200 μm) size structure was conducted in several locations along a cross-shore transect off Kochi in the near-shore waters of the southeastern Arabian Sea (SEAS; along ...
Trichodesmium blooms and warm-core ocean surface features in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2017)
Trichodesmium is a bloom-forming, diazotrophic, non-heterocystous cyanobacteria widely distributed in the warmer oceans, and their bloom is considered a �biological indication� of stratification and nitrogen limitation in ...
Fragilariopsis sp. bloom causes yellowish-brown waters off Alappuzha, south-central Kerala coast, India, during the mud bank-upwelling phase
(Current Science Association & Indian Academy of Sciences, 2018)
Mud banks (Chakara) of Kerala are calm coastal waters that form in several isolated stretches along the coast usually during the southwest monsoon (SWM) period (June-September). They are characterized by the damping of ...
On the accuracy of assessing copepod size and biovolume using FlowCAM and traditional microscopy
(CSIR, India, 2017)
In this paper, based on the biovolume estimation of different genera of copepods, we present the fact that only the Area-based Diameter (ABD) algorithm of FlowCAM has the efficiency to measure the bio-volume of copepods ...
Discriminating the biophysical impacts of coastal upwelling and mud banks along the southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)
Coastal upwelling and mud banks are two oceanographic processes concurrently operating along certain stretches of the southwest (Kerala) coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon period (June-September), facilitating ...
Why do satellite imageries show exceptionally high chlorophyll in the Gulf of mannar and the Palk bay during the norteast monsoon?.
(Springer, 2014)
The Gulf of Mannar (GoM) and the Palk Bay (PB) are two least studied marine environments located between India and Sri Lanka. Exceptionally high chlorophyll a concentration in the GoM and the PB during the Northeast Monsoon ...
Ecological responses of autotrophic microplankton to the eutrophication of the coastal upwelling along the Southwest coast of India
(Springer, 2021)
The primary ecological effects of the eutrophication of upwelling in the nearshore waters are the triggering and sustenance of phytoplankton (diatom) blooms. Here, we present the changes in the morphological characteristics ...
Implications of micro-plankton and micro-detritus on the food web in the largest monsoonal estuary along the west coast of India
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
This study presents how seasonal hydrographical changes affect the size structure of the micro-plankton community and thereby the availability of micro-detritus in the Kochi backwaters (KBW). Advanced quantification of ...
Biophysical implications of the freshwater influx over small spatial scale in the coastal waters along the southwest coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon
(Elsevier BV, 2021)
This study in the coastal waters off Kochi along the southwest coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon (SWM) presents the biophysical implications of freshwater influx over a small spatial scale. Field sampling was ...
