Carbon cycling in the northern Arabian Sea during the northeast monsoon: Significance of salps
(Inter-Research, 2002)
Winter cooling and mixing brings nutrients (nitrate and phosphate) to the surface waters over large parts of the northern Arabian Sea, but the rates of primary production as well as carbon export from the euphotic zone are ...
A study on inorganic carbon components in the Andaman Sea during the post monsoon season
(Ifremer/ CNRS/ IRD/ Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS. Tous droits reserves, 2001)
Extensive data have been collected on the carbon dioxide system during the post monsoon season in the eastern Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea of the northeastern Indian Ocean. The vertical distribution of temperature and ...
Newly discovered deep-branching marine plastid lineages are numerically rare but globally distributed
(Current Biology, 2017)
Ocean surface warming is resulting in an expansion of stratified, low-nutrient environments, a process referred to as ocean desertification [1]. A challenge for assessing the impact of these changes is the lack of robust ...
High CO2 emissions from the tropical Godavari estuary (India) associated with monsoon river discharges
(American Geophysical Union, 2011)
Estuaries have been under sampled to establish them as sources or sinks of the atmospheric carbon dioxide. Such poor coverage is well known for tropical, particularly monsoon driven, estuaries. In an attempt to study the ...
A revisit to the regulation of oxygen minimum zone in the Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2020)
Occurrence of intense oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) is known in the Bay of Bengal (BoB), but it has been recently reported to have become more acute and is at its tipping point. Here, we show that the intensification of OMZ ...
Seasonal variability in distribution and fluxes of methane in the Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 1998)
Methane, a biogeochemically important gas in Earth's atmosphere was measured in the water column and air in the Arabian Sea in different seasons, viz., northeast monsoon, intermonsoon, and southwest monsoon, as part of the ...
Variations in concentrations and fluxes of dimethylsulfide (DMS) from the Indian estuaries
(Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation, 2016)
In order to examine the variations in concentrations of dimethylsulfide (DMS) and its fluxes to the atmosphere, 25 major and medium estuaries from Indian subcontinent were sampled during wet and dry periods. River discharge ...
Spatial variability of upper ocean POC export in the Bay of Bengal and the Indian Ocean determined using particle-reactive 234 Th
(Wiley, 2017)
The northern Indian Ocean is globally significant for its seasonally reversing winds, upwelled nutrients, high biological production, and expanding oxygen minimum zones. The region acts as sink and source for atmospheric ...
Estimation of air-sea CO2 flux in the coastal waters of Visakhapatnam
(Springer, 2015)
Observations were conducted in a time series mode off Visakhapatnam in Bay of Bengal, for a period of 10 days from 8 to 19th February 2013 to examine the short-term atmospheric events on chemical processes in the upper 100 ...
Influence of river discharge on plankton metabolic rates in the tropical monsoon driven Godavari estuary, India
(Elsevier, 2009)
To examine the influence of river discharge on plankton metabolic balance in a monsoon driven tropical estuary, daily variations in physico-chemical and nutrients characteristics were studied over a period of 15 months ...
