Increased particle flux to the deep ocean related to monsoons
(Nature Publishing Group, 1989)
Monsoons cause seasonal reversals in the surface circulation of the northern Indian Ocean. In the Arabian Sea this results in the upwelling of nutrient-rich water along the coasts, making it one of the highly productive ...
Early diagenetic processes affecting nutrients in the pore waters of Central Indian Ocean cores
(Elsevier, 1989)
Pore-water nutrients, nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, silicate, pH and solid-phase organic carbon were analysed for one core from the Arabian Sea and three cores from the manganese nodule area in the Central Indian Ocean ...
Particulate carbohydrates in the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1989)
Particulate carbohydrate (PECHO) was measured for 183 samples collected from 8 depths at 23 stations. The (PCHO) concentrations varied from 22 to 125 mu g.l-1 (x bar = 52.42 plus or minus 19.56 mu g.l-1 at the surface and ...
Sedimentation of particulate material in stratified and nonstratified water columns in the Bombay high area of the Arabian sea
(Inter-Research, 1989)
Sedimentation of particulate material at 22, 42 and 62 m was recorded at a station in the Bombay High area of the Arabian Sea from September 1985 to March 1986. Diatom numbers and physical structure, especially thermal ...
Distribution and behaviour of fluoride in Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, central west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Fluoride concentrations in Mandovi and Zuari estuaries are regulated largely by salt water intrusion. Highest concentrations are observed during the premonsoon season, when the salt water intrusion is also the highest, the ...
Distribution of particulate carbohydrate in the eastern Arabian sea along 15 (degrees) N
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
The concentration of particulate carbohydrate varied from 38-158 mu g.l-1 and 19-239 mu g.l-1 in shelf and slope waters respectively. At 10 m water column the concentration of particulate carbohydrate increased with the ...
Distribution of particulate organic carbon in the central Arabian Sea
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1988)
Particulate organic carbon (POC) of 161 water samples collected from 8 depths (surface to 1000m) at 21 stations was measured. The POC concentrations ranged from 154 to 554 kappa g per litre at the surface and decreased in ...
On the renewal of the denitrifying layer in the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 1988)
A one-dimensional (vertical) advection-diffusion model has been applied to the deep layer characterized by a linear potential temperature(theta)-salinity relationship in the Arabian Sea to estimate the velocity of ascending ...
Physico-chemical characteristics of the Mahanadi estuarine ecosystem, east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Seasonal pattern of temperature, salinity, pH, dissolved oxygen, phosphate, nitrate and silicate profiles of the Mahanadi estuary have been studied. On the basis of physical characteristics, Mahanadi estuarine system can ...
Modified interstitial water squeezer for trace metal analysis
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Hydraulic squeezer of Manheim, used in the extraction of pore water of sediments, has been modified by providing teflon inner lining and increasing the volume of squeezer. The modified version facilitates collection of ...
