Shallow convective mixing promotes massive Noctiluca scintillans bloom in the northeastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2019)
The northeastern Arabian Sea (NEAS) experiences convective mixing during winter, but this mixing does not reach up to the silicicline, resulting in the limited supply of silicate (Si) compared to nitrate (N) and phosphate ...
Satellite and In Situ Observations of a Phytoplankton Bloom from Coastal Bay of Bengal: Role in pCO2 Modulation
(Springer, 2017)
A phytoplankton bloom was monitored in coastal waters of Bay of Bengal and its influence in water column properties was investigated. Significant draw down of CO2 was noted within the vicinity of the bloom associated with ...
Meso-scale atmospheric events promote phytoplankton blooms in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2011)
The Bay of Bengal is considered to be a low productive region compared to the Arabian Sea based on conventional seasonal observations. Such seasonal observations are not representative of a calendar year since the conventional ...
An evaluation of physical and biogeochemical processes regulating perennial suboxic conditions in the water column of the Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 2002)
Monthly oxygen budgets for the subsurface Arabian Sea (100-1000 m) are constructed on the basis of Modular Ocean Model and recently collected oxygen data. The model results are in agreement with the observed pattern. The ...
Silicon cycle in Indian estuaries and its control by biogeochemical and anthropogenic processes
(Elsevier, 2017)
We study the silicon biogeochemical cycle and its associated parameters in 24 and 18 Indian estuaries during dry and wet periods respectively. We focus more specifically on dissolved Si (DSi), amorphous Si (ASi,) lithogenic ...
The central and eastern Arabian Sea as a perennial source of atmospheric carbon dioxide
(Blackwell, 1998)
Seasonal (winter monsoon, intermonsoon and southwest monsoon) and interannual (between southwest monsoon seasons of 1995 and 1996) variations in total carbon dioxide (TCO sub(2)) and partial pressure of CO sub(2) (pCO ...
Seasonal variations in inorganic carbon components in the central and eastern Arabian Sea
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
Extensive observations have been made on the carbon dioxide system in the Arabian Sea during three different seasons as part of the Indian Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) Programme. Concentrations of total carbon ...
Model simulation of tide-induced currents in Gauthami-Godavari estuary
(Current Science Association, 2013)
Predictive spatial distribution of flow field has been simulated from the time series data on currents and tides during dry season (11-19, February, 2009) in the Gauthami-Godavari Estuary utilizing TIDAL model. A 2D-Tidal ...
Tidally-modulated high frequency internal waves in Gautami-Godavari estuary, East coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Time series temperature and salinity (at 1 hour interval) and currents data (10 min interval) at surface (3 m) and bottom (14 m), collected in the Gautami-Godavari estuary during 25-27 September 2008 were utilized to ...
Dominant Biological Control Over Upwelling on pCO2 in Sea East of Sri Lanka
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)
Upwelling enhances pCO2 levels due to injection of carbon-rich water to the surface despite the removal of carbon due to increase in primary production supported by enhanced nutrients. It is hypothesized that in the Bay ...
