DNA damage and oxidative stress in marine gastropod Morula granulata exposed to phenanthrene
(Springer, 2016)DNA damage and oxidative stress in marine gastropod Morula granulata was measured after in vivo exposure to four different concentrations (10, 25, 50, and 100 mikrog/L) of phenanthrene. Comet assay was used for measurement ... -
DNA damage in male gonad cells of Green mussel (Perna viridis) upon exposure to tobacco products
(Springer, 2006)DNA damage (determined by the Comet Assay) and the occurrence of deformed nuclei were measured as endpoints of genotoxicity in male gonad cells of the marine mussel (Perna viridis). Upon exposure of the organism to varying ... -
DNA damage in marine rock oyster (Saccostrea Cucullata) exposed to environmentally available PAHs and heavy metals along the Arabian Sea coast
(Elsevier, 2018)Molecular biomarkers are used world wide for quick assessment of the immediate effect of environmental pollution on marine ecosystems. Recently, we evaluated oxidative stress responses of marine rock oyster, Saccostrea ... -
Do cold, low salinity waters pass through the Indo-Sri Lanka Channel during winter?
(Taylor and Francis, 2011)During winter, along the east coast of India, the near-surface flow is characterized by the southward-flowing East India Coastal Current (EICC) which bends around Sri Lanka and enters into the south-eastern Arabian Sea ... -

Do gas seepage sites support distinct macrofaunal community ? - An observation in the tropical shelf region of Goa, Arabian Sea, India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)The macrofaunal community in the shelf region (depth 15–50 m) of Goa, Arabian Sea, India, at seven sites in the gas seep and seven sites in non-seep areas during March 2005 is examined. A total of 56 species were recorded, ... -
Do inverted depositional sequences and allochthonous foraminifers in sediments along the Coast of Kachchh, NW India, indicate palaeostorm and/or tsunami effects?
(Springer, 2006)The study of 134 subsurface sediment samples from three cores collected along the Coast of Kachchh, off Gujarat Province, NW India, shows the presence of 151 foraminifer species. Q-mode cluster analysis on foraminifer data ... -
Do manganese nodules grow or dissolve after burial? Results from the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Elsevier, 2007)Fifty buried manganese nodules at different depth intervals were recovered in 12 sediment cores from the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB). A maximum of 15 buried nodules were encountered in one sediment core (AAS-22/GC-07) ... -
Do regions outside the tropical Pacific influence ENSO through atmospheric teleconnections?
(Springer, 2015)This paper aims at identifying oceanic regions outside the tropical Pacific, which may influence the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) through interannual modulation of equatorial Pacific winds An Atmospheric General ... -
Docosahexaenoic acid accumulation in hraustochytrids: Search for the rationale
(Springer, 2007)Thraustochytrid protists characteristically accumulate high amounts of lipids, much of which is comprised of the polyunsaturated fatty acid, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Since DHA is important in human health, thraustochytrids ... -
Does carbonate ion control planktonic foraminifera shell calcification in upwelling regions?
(Current Science Association, 2011)Planktonic foraminifera shell weights have been recognized as possible proxy for surface water carbonate ion concentration [CO sup(=) sub(3)] and atmospheric CO sub(2). However, to utilize this proxy, it is important to ... -
Does evaporation over the Arabian sea play a crucial role in moisture transport across the west coast of India during an active monsoon period?

Does Glacial-Interglacial Transition Affect Sediment Accumulation in Monsoon-Dominated Regions?
(Wiley, 2017)The spatio?temporal changes in sedimentation rate along the continental margin of the monsoon?dominated eastern Arabian Sea during the last 24 kyr have been estimated from a compilation of 58 radiocarbon dated cores, in ... -
Does mining pollution affect foraminiferal distribution in Mandovi estuary, Goa, India?
(Museum d'histoire naturelle de Geneve, 2002)A total of 10 surface sediment samples were collected in the premonsoon season in 1990 from the Mandovi estuary, Goa, India. Study revealed presence of 14 species of foraminifera. The foraminiferal data is of special ... -
Does sea level pressure modulate the dynamic and thermodynamic forcing in the tropical Indian Ocean?
(Taylor & Francis, 2012)Three areas, the north Indian Ocean (NIO), the equatorial Indian Ocean (EIO) and the south Indian Ocean (SIO), were chosen over the tropical Indian Ocean to investigate the dependency of sea surface temperature (SST), wind ... -
Does subterranean flow initiate mud banks off the southwest coast of India?
(Elsevier, 2004)Coastal waters off the southwest coast of India draw special attention because of the occurrence of mud banks at certain locations during southwest monsoon period. The present study puts forward a hypothesis of a subterranean ... -
Does SW Monsoon Influence Total Suspended Matter Flux into the Arabian Sea?
(Coastal Education and Reserch Foundation, 2013)Seasonal enhancement in the flux of total suspended matter (TSM) has been attributed to climatology of the SW monsoon (SWM) in time-series trap experiments conducted in the Arabian Sea. To determine the influence of climate ... -
