Characterization of thermostable antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory protein from marine Bacillus sp.
(Elsevier, 2026)
Introduction Marine microorganisms are rich in bioactive compounds having biotechnological significance. Hydrothermal vents are specifically home to unique microbial communities that have the ability to produce diverse ...
Overcoming data constraints: Using macrobenthic functional feeding guilds for ecological assessment of an anthropogenically impacted estuary
(Elsevier, 2026)
Progressive anthropogenic alteration of estuaries has caused extensive habitat degradation, leading to partial or complete loss of benthic communities. Evaluating the ecological health of such impacted systems is vital for ...
First report of a giant protist Tricranastrum trinibrachium Takahashi 1991 (syn. Myelastrum trinibrachium) from the Indian Ocean
(Oxford University Press, 2025)
Rhizarians play an important role in ocean biogeochemistry and are used as paleoproxies. These organisms, specifically the giant ones, which are fragile in nature, are poorly studied and understood. A rhizarian species ...
Long-term seasonal variability in the water-soluble inorganic composition of coarse and fine aerosols over the northeast Arabian sea
(Elsevier, 2026)
The chemical composition of atmospheric aerosols plays a crucial role in understanding air quality, climate interactions, and oceanic biogeochemical cycles. This study presents a comprehensive long-term seasonal analysis ...
Picophytoplankton biogeography, community structure, and carbon biomass in the Eastern Indian Ocean during the spring inter-monsoon season
(Elsevier, 2026)
Picophytoplankton are globally ubiquitous and play essential roles in marine food webs and biogeochemical cycles, yet the Eastern Indian Ocean remains comparatively understudied. To address this gap, we investigated ...
Environmental Drivers of Diatom Assemblage Composition in a Tropical Estuary: a Multivariate Approach
(Springer Nature, 2026)
The present study investigates the effects of environmental conditions on diatom assemblage dynamics in the Mandovi estuary, Goa, India. Surface water samples collected from 18 stations revealed a broad salinity range ...
Spatio-temporal variation in the distribution and community structure of mesozooplankton in Mandovi-Zuari estuarine complex
(Current Science Association, 2026)
Mesozooplankton are tiny but mighty members of the marine ecosystems, playing a crucial role in food webs, and serve as sensitive indicators of environmen- tal change. The present study delved into how these communities ...
Recent advances in techniques for microplastic detection, microbial biodegradation and its genomic insights: a review
(Springer Nature, 2026)
The rapid increase in plastic production and use has caused a large buildup of microplastics (MPs) in land, freshwater, and ocean environments. This situation poses serious risks to ecosystems, biodiversity, and human ...
Identification and functional characterization of a Nav-targeting peptide NavTx-Bg1 from sea anemone Bunodosoma goanense (Vennam & den Hartog, 1993) transcriptome
(Elsevier, 2026)
Sea anemones are a rich source of venom peptides, many of which target voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav), having immense potential for therapeutic development. In this study, we employed a transcriptomics-guided approach ...
Evaluation of ERA5 reanalysis wave spectra with observations during seasonal and extreme conditions along the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2026)
The present study evaluates the accuracy of ERA5 wave spectra off Honnavar for the years 2014 and 2015 by comparing them with measured wave spectra obtained from a directional buoy. Two-dimensional wave spectra from the ...
