Major sources of sinking particulate organic matter in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2024)
Impacts of river discharge on coastal ocean processes are multi-dimensional. Studies on sinking particle fluxes, composition and their seasonal variability in coastal oceans are very limited. In this study, we investigated ...
Insights into the seasonal changes in the taxonomic and functional diversity of bacteria in the eastern Arabian Sea: Shotgun metagenomics approach
(Elsevier, 2024)
The eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) is known for its unique oceanographic features such as the seasonal monsoonal winds, upwelling of nutrient-rich waters and a significant increase in primary productivity during the monsoon ...
Response of coastal phytoplankton to pollution from various sources in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2024)
The coastal ocean receives nutrient pollutants from various sources, such as aerosols, municipal sewage, industrial effluents and groundwater discharge, with variable concentrations and stoichiometric ratios. The objective ...
Daylight driven vertical migration of mesozooplankton in the Arabian sea and the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2024)
Diurnal vertical migration (DVM) of mesozooplankton in the Deep Scattering Layer (DSL) of the Indian seas is poorly studied. This cyclical vertical migration substantially controls the carbon sequestration in the ocean. ...
Mean wave direction and wave height in the ERA5 reanalysis dataset: Comparison with measured data in the coastal waters of India
(Elsevier, 2024)
Information on wave direction and height is an important input to the coastal engineers. The availability of measured data at every location in the ocean makes maritime operations smoother. However, the practical impossibility ...
Global oceanic diazotroph database version 2 and elevated estimate of global oceanic N2 fixation
(Copernicus Publications, 2023)
Marine diazotrophs convert dinitrogen (N2) gas into bioavailable nitrogen (N), supporting life in the global ocean. In 2012, the first version of the global oceanic diazotroph database (version 1) was published. Here, we ...
Evidence of deep subsurface carbon-sulfur geochemistry in a sediment core from the eastern Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2024)
Deep biospheric anaerobic microbial sulfate reduction and oxidative sulfur cycling have been studied in long sediment cores mainly acquired as part of IODP explorations. The most remarkable observation in many of these ...
Role of phytoplankton composition on exudation of dissolved organic carbon in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2024)
Phytoplankton in the marine environment exudates part of the primary production as dissolved organic carbon (DOC) into the surrounding waters. The rate of exudation of DOC is depended on the hydrographic condition, nutrient ...
Effect of coastal hypoxia on bacterial diversity as elucidated through 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing
(Frontiers Media SA, 2024)
The formation of oxygen-depleted zones in the bottom waters is one of the most widespread phenomena in coastal areas. Upwelling episodes along India�s west coast due to the southwest monsoon increase biological productivity, ...
Effect of habitat attributes on the abundance of Sargassum�s epifauna and the feeding habit of an amphipod epifauna from the coast of Western India
(CSIR-National Institute of Science Communication and Policy Research, CSIR-NISCPR, 2023)
The Sargassum bed along the rocky intertidal region is highly productive and serves as a habitat for numerous associated species. In this study, the effect of habitat attributes (algal morphology) on the abundance and ...
