Trichodesmium blooms and warm-core ocean surface features in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2017)
Trichodesmium is a bloom-forming, diazotrophic, non-heterocystous cyanobacteria widely distributed in the warmer oceans, and their bloom is considered a �biological indication� of stratification and nitrogen limitation in ...
Fragilariopsis sp. bloom causes yellowish-brown waters off Alappuzha, south-central Kerala coast, India, during the mud bank-upwelling phase
(Current Science Association & Indian Academy of Sciences, 2018)
Mud banks (Chakara) of Kerala are calm coastal waters that form in several isolated stretches along the coast usually during the southwest monsoon (SWM) period (June-September). They are characterized by the damping of ...
On the accuracy of assessing copepod size and biovolume using FlowCAM and traditional microscopy
(CSIR, India, 2017)
In this paper, based on the biovolume estimation of different genera of copepods, we present the fact that only the Area-based Diameter (ABD) algorithm of FlowCAM has the efficiency to measure the bio-volume of copepods ...
Discriminating the biophysical impacts of coastal upwelling and mud banks along the southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)
Coastal upwelling and mud banks are two oceanographic processes concurrently operating along certain stretches of the southwest (Kerala) coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon period (June-September), facilitating ...
Why do satellite imageries show exceptionally high chlorophyll in the Gulf of mannar and the Palk bay during the norteast monsoon?.
(Springer, 2014)
The Gulf of Mannar (GoM) and the Palk Bay (PB) are two least studied marine environments located between India and Sri Lanka. Exceptionally high chlorophyll a concentration in the GoM and the PB during the Northeast Monsoon ...
Dominance of coastal upwelling over Mud Bank in shaping the mesozooplankton along the southwest coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon
(Pergamon, 2017)
Mud Banks are littoral zones along the Kerala (southwest) coast of India with increased suspended sediments during the Southwest Monsoon (SWM), which facilitate remarkable damping of incident waves creating a localized ...
Summer monsoon onset-induced changes of autotrophic pico- and nanoplankton in the largest monsoonal estuary along the west coast of India
(Springer, 2016)
This study presents the response of autotrophic pico- and nanoplankton to southwest monsoon-associated hydrographical transformations in the Cochin backwaters (CBW), the largest monsoonal estuary along the west coast of ...
Mud Banks along the southwest coast of India are not too muddy for plankton
(2018)
Considering Alappuzha Mud Bank in the southern Kerala coast as a typical case of biologically productive Mud Banks that form along the southwest coast of India during the Southwest Monsoon (June - September), the present ...
Seasonality in autotrophic mesoplankton in a coastal upwelling-mud bank environment along the southwest coast of India and its ecological implications
(Elsevier, 2017)
Mesoplankton refers to both autotrophic and heterotrophic�plankton�with a body size between 200 � 20,000��m. Here, we applied a FlowCAM to identify the�autotrophs�present in the mesoplankton size class in a�coastal ...
Response of phytoplankton to heavy cloud cover and turbidity in the northern Bay of Bengal
(Nature Publishing Group, 2018)
An interesting physiological response of phytoplankton to large fluctuations in underwater photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) levels in the northern Bay of Bengal has been presented here. This study is primarily ...
