Seasonal cycle of physical forcing and biological response in the Bay of Bengal
PrasannaKumar, S.; Nuncio, M.; Narvekar, J.; Ramaiah, N.; Sardessai, S.; Gauns, M.; Fernandes, V.; Paul, J.T.; Jyothibabu, R.; Jayaraj, K.A. (NISCAIR, CSIR, 2010)Seasonal cycle of the physical processes and the biological response in the Bay of Bengal were studied using co-located physical, chemical and biological data collected along the central and the western Bay covering four ... -
Seasonal variability in biological carbon biomass standing stocks and production in the surface layers of the Bay of Bengal
Ramaiah, N.; Fernandes, V.; Paul, J.T.; Jyothibabu, R.; Gauns, M.; Jayraj, E.A. (NISCAIR, CSIR, 2010)As a part of the Bay of Bengal Process Study, several biological characteristics were investigated during summer monsoon (SuM; July-August 2001), fall inter monsoon (FIM, September-August 2002), spring inter monsoon (SpIM; ... -
Southwest monsoon-driven changes in the phytoplankton community structure in the central Arabian Sea (2017-2018): After two decades of JGOFS
Chowdhury, Mintu; Biswas, H.; Mitra, A.; Silori, S.; Sharma, Diksha; Bandyopadhyay, Debasmita; Shaik, A.U.R.; Fernandes, V.; Narvekar, J. (Elsevier, 2021)The Arabian Sea, a land-locked low latitude high productive oceanic province, is characterized by strong seasonality due to the reversal of monsoon winds. "Open ocean upwelling" occurs during the southwest monsoon (SWM) ... -
Spatial structuring of zooplankton communities through partitioning of habitat and resources in the Bay of Bengal during spring intermonsoon
Fernandes, V.; Ramaiah, N. (Tubitak, Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2019)Despite advances in oceanographic investigations in the Indian Ocean, zooplankton ecology is still poorly known from the open waters of the Bay of Bengal. In order to understand the vertical and horizontal distribution of ... -
Strong variability in bacterioplankton abundance and production in central and western Bay of Bengal
Fernandes, V.; Ramaiah, N.; Paul, J.T.; Sardessai, S.; Jyothibabu, R.; Gauns, M. (Springer-Verlag, 2008)With large influx of freshwater that decreases sea-surface salinities, weak wind forcing of less than 10 m s sup (-1) and almost always warm (greater than 28 degrees C) sea-surface temperature that stratifies and shallows ... -
The effect of semi-permanent eddies on the distribution of mesozooplankton in the central Bay of Bengal
Fernandes, V. (Yale University, 2008)Five locations in the central Bay of Bengal (BoB) along a longitudinal transect at 88E were sampled during the Fall Intermonsoon, 2002 for mesozooplankton biomass, abundance, groups and copepod species composition. Stations ... -
