Mets system is basically a gas monitoring system, used for the detection of underwater gas. The system consists of a sensor, datalogger and energy module. The sensor works on the diffusion techniques. The system can be ...

This study describes the radioprotective ability of a hydrolysate prepared using an enzymeacid hydrolysis method from the green mussel Perna viridis in terms of its ability to prevent radiation-induced damage in plasmid ...

Many catchments in India are devoid of gauging stations. In the absence of measurements of stream flow, regional rainfall-runoff relationships developed over a hydro-meteorologically similar region may be used to estimate ...

An important requirement towards formulating appropriate management and conservation measures for biological diversity is to devise efficient and cost-effective monitoring protocols that yield coherent data. Environmental ...

The bacterial oxidation of sulfur and methane is central to the biogeochemical processes in sediments such as the tropical mangrove sediments. However, there is a lacuna of information on the seasonal interactions including ...

Nitrate reduction plays a key role in the biogeochemical dynamics and microbial ecology of coastal upwelling systems. Seasonal upwelling in the eastern Arabian Sea entrains nitrate rich waters to the surface, the intense ...

Marinobacter comprises a widespread and ecologically significant genus of marine bacteria with vast metabolic capabilities. However, very few reports on phages infecting this genus exist. In this study, we isolated and ...

Cholera outbreaks are prevalent in countries with a low Human Development Index (HDI) where people have limited access to safe drinking water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH). Intriguingly, the state of Kerala which records ...
