Response of phytoplankton to nutrient enrichment with high growth rates in a tropical monsoonal estuary - Zuari estuary, India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2013)
Present study is about the impact of macronutrient enrichment on phytoplankton biomass and community structure in a tropical monsoonal estuary. In situ experiments carried out during the pre-monsoon period (February-March ...
Biogeochemistry and ecology of Pyrosoma spinosum from the Central Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2015)
Background: A swarm of pelagic tunicate (Pyrosoma spinosum) was found in the surface open waters of the Arabian Sea during late southwest monsoon (September 2007). The swarm site was characterized by moderate southwesterly ...
The Arabian Sea
(Blackwell, 2003)
The Arabian Sea makes contributions to global biogeochemical cycles that are far in excess of what might be expected from its modest size. It experiences extremes in atmospheric forcing, asymmetrically distributed over the ...
The next generation of iron fertilization experiments in the Southern Ocean
(The Royal Society, 2008)
Of the various macro-engineering schemes proposed to mitigate global warming, ocean iron fertilization (OIF) is one that could be started at short notice on relevant scales. It is based on the reasoning that adding trace ...
Iron fertilization enhanced net community production but not downward particle flux during the Southern Ocean iron fertilization experiment LOHAFEX
(American Geophysical Union, 2013)
A closed eddy core in the Subantarctic Atlantic Ocean was fertilized twice with two tons of iron (as FeSO<sub>4</sub>), and the 300 km<sup>2</sup> fertilized patch was studied for 39 days to test whether fertilization ...
The relationship between volatile halocarbons and phytoplankton pigments during a Trichodesmium bloom in the coastal eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2011)
Eukaryotic phytoplankton such as diatoms and prymnesiophytes produce biogenic halocarbons in the ocean that serve as important sources of chlorine and bromine to the atmosphere, but the role of cyanobacteria in halocarbon ...
