Effect of freshwater influx on phytoplankton in the Mandovi estuary (Goa, India) during monsoon season: Chemotaxonomy
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013)
The Mandovi estuary is a prominent water body that runs along the west coast of India. It forms an estuarine network with the adjacent Zuari estuary, connected via the Cumbharjua canal. The physico-chemical conditions seen ...
Evaluation of significant sources influencing the variation of water quality of Kandla creek, Gulf of Katchchh, using PCA
(Springer, 2010)
To evaluate the significant sources contributing to water quality parameters, we used principal component analysis (PCA) for the interpretation of a large complex data matrix obtained from the Kandla creek environmental ...
Suspended sediment dynamics on a seasonal scale in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2011)
Suspended particulate matter (SPM) collected at regular stations from the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries indicates that the peaks of high SPM coincide with peaks of high rainfall and low salinity and also with peaks of ...
Influence of winds on temporally varying short and long period gravity waves in the near shore regions of the eastern Arabian Sea
(European Geosciences Union, 2013)
Wave data collected off Ratnagiri, west coast of India, during 1 May 2010 to 30 April 2012 are used in this study. Seasonal and annual variations in wave data controlled by the local wind system such as sea breeze and land ...
Radiolarian fluxes from the southern Bay of Bengal: sediment trap results
(Pergamon, 2002)
A study of radiolarian fluxes collected during 1991-93 from time-series sediment traps deployed at 1071 and 3010 m water depth in the southern Bay of Bengal (SBBT) yielded 40 species/groups of radiolarians. Among the order ...
Seasonally varying nitrogen isotope biogeochemistry of particulate organic matter in Lake Kinneret, Israel
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, 2009)
Large temporal variations in the nitrogen isotopic composition (delta sup(15) N) of particulate organic matter (POM) and dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) species in Lake Kinneret occurred in response to seasonal phasing ...
Seasonality and interannual variability of particle-fluxes to the deep Arabian Sea
(Pergamon, 1993)
Long-term sediment trap studies have been carried out since 1986 at three locations in the western, central and eastern Arabian Sea. Total and bulk component fluxes measured for 3 years at the central station and for 4 ...
Propagation of tides in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine network
(ICMAM-PD, Chennai (India), 1999)
The propagation of tides in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine network was studied based on the hydrographic observations; mathematical modelling; and chemistry of estuaries. The data was collected during the dry and wet season. ...
Source and dispersal of suspended sediment in the macro-tidal Gulf of Kachchh
(Elsevier, 2007)
The macro-tidal Gulf of Kachchh, covering nearly 7000 km sup(2), is located about 150 km south of the Indus River mouth. In spite of semi-arid climate and lack of major rivers flowing into it, the Gulf is highly turbid ...
Biological investigations of Indian phaeophyceae: 17. Seasonal variation of antibacterial activity of total sterols obtained from frozen samples of Sargassum johnstonii Setchell et Gardner
(Seaweed Research and Utilization Association, 1998)
From lipid fraction of frozen samples of Sargassum johnstonii unsaponifiable part was extracted with diethyl ether to isolate total sterols. The extracted sterols were obtained for a period of nine months and tested against ...
