Risk assessments of microplastics accumulated in estuarine sediments at Cuddalore, Tamil Nadu, southeast coast of India
(Springer, 2023)
In this study, the abundance of microplastics (MPs) in the Uppanar and Gadilam estuaries in Cuddalore, on the southeast coast of India, is reported. In the estuarine sediments, MP abundance ranged from 36.3 ± 3.39 to ...
Half-sandwich iridium(III) and rhodium(III) complexes: Synthesis, characterization and antifouling properties
(Taylor & Francis, 2023)
The reaction of [(η5-C5Me5)MCl2]2 [M = Ir (1) or Rh (2)] with thiazole ligands (L) at room temperature [L = atz; 2-acetamidothiazole (3) or catz; 5-chloro-2-acetamidothiazole (4)] afforded iridium(III) and rhodium(III) ...
Nitrate reducing activity pervades surface waters during upwelling.
(Elsevier, 2014)
Nitrate reducing activity (NRA) is known to be mediated by microaerophilic to anaerobic bacteria and generally occurs in the sub-surface waters. However, we hypothesize that NRA could become prominent in the surface waters ...
Evaluation of surface water and sediment quality in Chicalim Bay, Nerul Creek, and Chapora Bay from Goa coast, India - a statistical approach
(Springer, 2016)
To better understand the spatial and temporal variation in surface water and sediment quality, parameters were evaluated from the three sites Chicalim Bay (CB), Nerul Creek (NC), and Chapora Bay (ChB) along the Goa coast, ...
Investigation of near-shore processes along North Goa beaches: A study based on field observations and numerical modelling
(Springer, 2021)
The dynamic coastal environment comprising of near-shore zone and beach continuously undergoes substantial morphological changes due to man-made and natural processes. These processes are always mutually dependent and ...
Link of the short-term temporal trends of Sr and Nd isotopic composition of aeolian dust over the Arabian Sea with the source emissions
(Elsevier, 2023)
Aeolian transport of continental dust from the Middle East and South Asia to the Arabian Sea (AS) is an important route for delivering key trace metals and nutrients. Despite being surrounded by several deserts, it is not ...
Evaluating the Bacterial Diversity from the Southwest Coast of India Using Fatty Acid Methyl Ester Profiles
(Springer, 2021)
The fatty acid composition of bacterial isolates remains stable under standardized culture conditions, which makes it a useful taxonomic marker. The present study aims to characterize the diversity and quantity of fatty ...
Variability of dissolved oxygen in the Arabian Sea Oxygen Minimum Zone and its driving mechanisms
(2020)
The Arabian Sea hosts one of the most intense, perennial Oxygen Minimum Zones (OMZ) in the world ocean. Observations along a meridional transect at 68°E extending from 8 to 21°N showed large seasonal as well as interannual ...
Temporal variability in copepod gut pigments over the central western continental shelf of India
(Cambridge University Press, 2018)
The Indian Western continental shelf (IWCS) is amongst the most productive regions of the world, being noteworthy for upwelling (south-west monsoon) and downwelling (north-east monsoon) that tunes the water biogeochemistry. ...
Rip current occurrences in meso tidal surf zones at a coastal stretch along the central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2022)
Currents in the surfzone were measured and modeled along a coastal stretch on the central west coast of India. Wave and tide were the primary forcings for the numerical model, which was validated with the measurements. The ...
