Influence of winds on temporally varying short and long period gravity waves in the near shore regions of the eastern Arabian Sea
(European Geosciences Union, 2013)
Wave data collected off Ratnagiri, west coast of India, during 1 May 2010 to 30 April 2012 are used in this study. Seasonal and annual variations in wave data controlled by the local wind system such as sea breeze and land ...
Occurrence and seasonal variation in distribution of fecal indicator bacteria in Tapi estuary along the West coast of India.
(NISCAIR, 2014)
Distribution and occurrence of fecal indicator bacterial in nine different locations along the inner to coastal areas of Tapi estuary during three different seasons like, post-monsoon, pre-monsoon and monsoon were analyzed ...
Seasonality and variability of coccolithophore fluxes in response to diverse oceanographic regimes in the Bay of Bengal: Sediment trap results
(Elsevier, 2013)
A study on coccolithophores from the sediment trap samples, collected over a period of one year (January 1992–December 1992) from three trap locations in the Bay of Bengal (BOB) were used to understand their production and ...
Ocean currents structuring the mesozooplankton in the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Bay, southeast coast of India
(Elsevier, 2013)
We hypothesis perceptible physical barriers that exist between the deep Gulf of Mannar and shallow Palk Bay located between India and Sri Lanka, and seasonally reversing surface circulation patterns in the region have a ...
Impact of atmospheric and physical forcings on biogeochemical cycling of dissolved oxygen and nutrients in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2013)
Time-series observations were conducted off Visakhapatnam, central west coast of Bay of Bengal, from October 2007 to April 2009 to examine the influence of physical and atmospheric processes on water column nutrients ...
Numerical simulations of barnacle larval dispersion coupled with field observations on larval abundance, settlement and recruitment in a tropical monsoon influenced coastal marine environment
(Elsevier, 2012)
Observations were carried out to monitor the larval abundance, settlement and recruitment of barnacles on a regular basis for a period of two years. The results were then compared with the numerical modelling studies carried ...
Tide dependent seasonal changes in water quality and assimilative capacity of anthropogenically influenced Mormugao harbour water
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2012)
Water quality data from Mormugao harbour area at the mouth of Zuari estuary in Goa have been obtained over two tidal cycles monthly for the year 2003 to 2004. R-mode factor analyses of the data indicated strong positive ...
Processes of 30–90 days sea surface temperature variability in the northern Indian Ocean during boreal summer
(Springer-Verlag, 2012)
During summer, the northern Indian Ocean exhibits significant atmospheric intraseasonal variability associated with active and break phases of the monsoon in the 30–90 days band. In this paper, we investigate mechanisms ...
Origin and biochemical cycling of particulate nitrogen in the Mandovi estuary
(Elsevier, 2011)
Mandovi estuary is a tropical estuary strongly influenced by the southwest monsoon. In order to understand, sources and fate of particulate organic nitrogen, suspended particulate matter (SPM) collected from various ...
Seasonal stratification and property distributions in a tropical estuary (Cochin estuary, west coast, India)
(European Geosciences Union, 2013)
The intratidal, spring–neap and seasonal variations in stratification were examined in the Cochin estuary. The observations established a strong connection with the distribution of chemical and biological properties. The ...
