Fluxes of dissolved organic carbon and nitrogen to the northern Indian Ocean from the Indian monsoonal rivers
(American Geophysical Union, 2015)
Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and nitrogen (DON) were measured in 27 major and medium monsoonal estuaries along the Indian coast during southwest monsoon in order to understand the spatial variability in their concentrations ...
The carbon budget of South Asia
(European Geosciences Union, 2013)
The source and sinks of carbon dioxide (CO sub(2)) and methane (CH sub(4)) due to anthropogenic and natural biospheric activities were estimated for the South Asian region (Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal, Pakistan and ...
Impact of sinking carbon flux on accumulation of deep-ocean carbon in the Northern Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2007)
The export of carbon through the biological pump from the surface to the deep ocean has a direct influence on the removal of CO sub(2) from the atmosphere. This is because the carbon is sequestered for only a few days to ...
Severe fish mortality associated with 'red tide' observed in the sea off Cochin
(Current Science Association, 1998)
Severe fish mortality associated with the "red tide" phenomenon caused by Noctiluca blooms was observed in the sea off Cochin, Kerala, India at depths less than 40 m. The dead fish, almost entirely comprised of the threadfin ...
Influence of river discharge on abundance and composition of phytoplankton in the western coastal Bay of Bengal during peak discharge period
(Elsevier, 2018)
To understand the influence of river discharge on phytoplankton composition along western coastal Bay of Bengal (BoB), surface water samples were collected during peak discharge period. River discharge from the Ganges ...
Upper layer thermohaline structure of the Bay of Bengal during the 2013 northeast monsoon
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
The Bay of Bengal is forced by the South Asian monsoon and associated seasonally reversing winds and freshwater fluxes. Here, we summarize a high-resolution, basin-wide survey of the Bay of Bengal conducted during the 2013 ...
Perennial occurrence of heterotrophic, indicator and pathogenic bacteria in the coastal Bay of Bengal (off Visakhapatnam) - Impact of physical and atmospheric processes
(Elsevier, 2018)
In order to examine the health of the coastal waters off Visakhapatnam in terms of prevalence and abundance of heterotrophic (H), indicator and pathogenic (P) bacterial counts (BC) and influence of physical processes on ...
Stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen in suspended matter and sediments from the Godavari estuary
(Springer, 2012)
Spatial distribution of the carbon and nitrogen content and their isotopic enrichment in suspended matter and sediments were measured in the Godavari estuary to identify the sources and transformation mechanism of organic ...
Distribution of biochemical constituents in the surface sediments of western coastal Bay of Bengal: Influence of river discharge and water column properties
(Springer, 2013)
Biochemical composition of surface sediment samples from off major and minor rivers along the east coast of India revealed that spatial distribution of sediment organic carbon (SOC) composition was mainly governed by ...
Biogeochemical significance of transport exopolymer particles in the Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 1998)
The behaviour of Transparent Exopolymer Particles (TEP), produced by biochemical processes, was studied for the North Indian Ocean, an area of global biogeochemical significance, during 1996 southwest monsoon. Very different ...
