Radiolarian fluxes from the southern Bay of Bengal: sediment trap results
(Pergamon, 2002)
A study of radiolarian fluxes collected during 1991-93 from time-series sediment traps deployed at 1071 and 3010 m water depth in the southern Bay of Bengal (SBBT) yielded 40 species/groups of radiolarians. Among the order ...
Seasonally varying nitrogen isotope biogeochemistry of particulate organic matter in Lake Kinneret, Israel
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 2009)
Large temporal variations in the nitrogen isotopic composition (delta sup(15) N) of particulate organic matter (POM) and dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) species in Lake Kinneret occurred in response to seasonal phasing ...
Source and dispersal of suspended sediment in the macro-tidal Gulf of Kachchh
(Elsevier, 2007)
The macro-tidal Gulf of Kachchh, covering nearly 7000 km sup(2), is located about 150 km south of the Indus River mouth. In spite of semi-arid climate and lack of major rivers flowing into it, the Gulf is highly turbid ...
Seasonal variations in groundwater chemistry of a phreatic coastal and crystalline terrain of central Kerala, India
(Taylor and Francis, 2006)
This article investigates the seasonal variation in geochemical characteristics of groundwater in phreatic aquifers of the coastal plain and crystalline terrain of central Kerala, India. Within the coastal plain, the western ...
Seasonal and spatial distribution of particulate organic matter in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2009)
The temporal, spatial and depth related variation of suspended particulate organic matter (POM) in the Bay of Bengal are assessed in this paper. For this purpose, suspended particulate matter (SPM) samples were collected ...
Summer monsoon rainfall prediction for India - Some new ideas
(Narosa Publishing, 2005)
Present methods of forecasting of mean Indian rainfall for summer monsoon season are critically examined. Considering the wide variations in mean seasonal rainfalls (more than 5 to less than 400 cm) and crops in various ...
Suspended sediment fluxes in a tropical estuary, west coast of India
(NCAOR, Goa, 2005)
Annual transport processes of suspended sediments in Beypore estuary - a tropical estuary along the south west coast of India - were investigated based on time series measurements within the system. It's observed that the ...
Influence of physical processes and freshwater discharge on the seasonality of phytoplankton regime in the Bay of Bengal
(Pergamon, 2000)
The seasonality of phytoplankton was examined in the western and northern Bay of Bengal using shipboard data collected during three seasons as well as ocean colour imagery from OCTS and Sea WiFS. Seasonal changes in the ...
Basin-wide seasonal evolution of the Indian Ocean's phytoplankton blooms
(American Geophysical Union, 2007)
A climatology of Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor (SeaWiFS) chlorophyll data over the Indian Ocean is used to examine the bloom variability patterns, identifying spatio-temporal contrasts in bloom appearance and ...
Hydrological structure and biological productivity of the tropical Indian Ocean
(NIO, Dona Paula, Goa (India), 2000)
Hydrological structure analyses of regions in the tropical Atlantic Ocean have consistently revealed the existence of a typical tropical structure characterized by a nitrate-depleted mixed layer above the thermocline. The ...
