Sedimentary organic matter composition from tropical ports with distinct geographic and morpho-hydrodynamic characteristics: Evaluation through multiple biochemical markers
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Increasing coastal urbanization and shipping activity-related environmental pollution advocate the importance of assessment of port ecosystems. Fatty acid biomarkers, elemental components, and biopolymers were used to ...
Exploration and excavation of shipwrecks in Goa and adjoining waters 2005-2006
(NIO, India, 2006)
As a part of the institutional project, 'Application of Geological and Geophysical methods in Marine Archaeology and Underwater Explorations, (OLP 0008)', exploration and excavation of shipwrecks have been carried out from ...
Quantitative analyses of denitrifying bacterial diversity from a seasonally hypoxic monsoon governed tropical coastal region
(Elsevier, 2018)
Microbial community mediated denitrification leads to nitrate reduction and, its eventual removal from marine ecosystems. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the functional diversity in terms of the abundance and types ...
Study on Ambient Air Quality of Megacity Delhi, India During Odd-Even Strategy
(Springer India, 2017)
State Government of Delhi had adopted odd-even scheme on vehicles plying in megacity Delhi to understand and improve the air quality of Delhi. To understand the effect of odd-even scheme on the concentration of pollutants, ...
Seasonality and vertical distribution of epiphytic diatoms on the pneumatophore surface of mangrove Avicennia officinalis L.
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2018)
Mangrove pneumatophores (respiratory roots) form a unique habitat about which very little ecological information is available. In this study, epiphytic diatoms on the pneumatophore surface of Avicennia officinalis (L.) ...
Tectonics of the Andaman Backarc Basin-Present Understanding and Some Outstanding Questions
(Springer, Cham, 2020)
The Andaman Backarc Basin is characterized by active seafloor spreading spurred by the right stepping dextral shear imposed on the trans-basinal Sagaing-Andaman-Nicobar- Sumatra fault system and presents a complex tectonic ...
Evolution of wave spectra during sea breeze and tropical cyclone
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
Wave spectral components change with time and through space by receiving energy from wind, through non-linear energy transfer among the spectral components and dissipation due to white-capping and friction. Changes in wave ...
Iron organic speciation during the LOHAFEX experiment: Iron ligands release under biomass control by copepod grazing
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
The LOHAFEX iron fertilization experiment consisted in the fertilization of the closed core of a cyclonic eddy located south of the Antarctic Polar Front in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean. This eddy was characterized ...
Seasonal Trends of Atmospheric PAHs in Five Asian Megacities and Source Detection Using Suitable Biomarkers
(Taiwan Association for Aerosol Research, 2017)
The most prevalent pollutant, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is now plenteously distributed in the global atmosphere. We recently quantified 36 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) associated with aerosols ...
Biogeochemistry of methane in a tropical monsoonal estuarine system along the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2018)
Estuaries are known to be important sources of methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. However, a lack of adequate field studies in understanding the sources/sinks of CH4 in estuaries hampers the global atmospheric budgeting. ...
