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 ...
Use of the Boron partition coefficient ‘K<sub>D</sub>’ and B/Ca from planktonic foraminifera in the estimation of past seawater pCO<sub>2</sub>
(Geochemical Society of Japan, 2015)
We assess the usefulness of the empirical boron partition coefficient, K<sub>D</sub> and B/Ca measured from planktonic foraminifera in estimation of pCO<sub>2</sub> using three different relationships between K<sub>D</sub> ...
Linkage between speciation of Cd in mangrove sediment and its bioaccumulation in total soft tissue of oyster from the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2016)
This study established a mechanistic linkage between Cd speciation and bioavailability in mangrove system from the west coast of India. High bioaccumulation of Cd was found in the oyster (Crassostrea sp.) even at low Cd ...
Why is the Bay of Bengal experiencing a reduced rate of sea surface warming?
(Royal Meteorological Society, 2016)
The sea surface temperature (SST) in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) during the period 1960–1995 showed a decadal cycle, riding over a warming trend. The disruption of the decadal cycle was noticed post-1995 and was followed by a ...
Relationship between the lability of sediment-bound Cd and its bioaccumulation in edible oyster.
(Elsevier, 2015)
A linkage between Cd speciation in sediments and its bioaccumulation in edible oyster (Crassostrea sp.) from a tropical estuarine system was established. Bioaccumulation of Cd in edible oyster increased with the increasing ...
Fluxes of dissolved organic carbon and nitrogen to the northern Indian Ocean from the Indian monsoonal rivers
(American Geophysical Union, 2015)
Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and nitrogen (DON) were measured in 27 major and medium monsoonal estuaries along the Indian coast during southwest monsoon in order to understand the spatial variability in their concentrations ...
Comparative biogeochemistry–ecosystem–human interactions on dynamic continental margins..
(Elsevier, 2015)
The oceans' continental margins face strong and rapid change, forced by a combination of direct human activity, anthropogenic CO2-induced climate change, and natural variability. Stimulated by discussions in Goa, India at ...
Hydrothermal Fe cycling and deep ocean organic carbon scavenging: Model-based evidence for significant POC supply to seafloor sediments
(Elsevier, 2015)
Submarine hydrothermal venting has recently been identified to have the potential to impact ocean biogeochemistry at the global scale. This is the case because processes active in hydrothermal plumes are so vigorous that ...
Preface: Biogeochemistry–ecosystem interaction on changing continental margins in the Anthropocene
(Elsevier, 2015)
This special issue presents case studies of different continental marginswith different settings and problems. The domains examined cover awide spectrumof continental margin environments, fromwatersheds, estuaries and ...
Use of marine robot`MAYA` for monitoring the Zuari and Mandovi esturine systems
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 2015)
Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASVs) are gaining popularity among oceanographic, meteorological and defense research organizations (Motwani, 2012). The Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, MAYA designed and built at CSIR-NIO (Desa, ...
