Tide-surge interaction at the head of the Bay of Bengal during Cyclone Aila
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Tide-surge interaction serves a critical role in shallow coastal regions in modifying the characteristics of peak water levels during storm events. In the present study, we investigated the tide-surge interaction in the ...
Contrasting phytoplankton and biogeochemical functioning in the eastern Arabian Sea shelf waters recorded by carbon isotopes (SW monsoon)
(Elsevier, 2021)
This study examines the relationship between the isotopic signature of phytoplankton-derived particulate organic matter (POM) (?13CPOC) and estimates of growth rate and community composition along a north-south gradient ...
Assessing the effect of riverine discharge on planktic foraminifera: A case study from the marginal marine regions of the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2021)
Planktic foraminifera are amongst the most widely used paleoclimatic proxies. The application of foraminifera for paleoclimatic reconstruction requires knowledge of the ecological preference of species. Here, we report the ...
Variations of Colored Dissolved Organic Matter in the Mandovi Estuary, Goa, During Spring Inter-Monsoon: A Comparison With COVID-19 Outbreak Imposed Lockdown Period
(Frontiers, 2021)
Colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) is one of the important fractions of dissolved organic matter (DOM) that controls the availability of light in water and plays a crucial role in the cycling of carbon. High CDOM ...
Prevalence of obligate and facultative anaerobic bacteria in the mudbank along the southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)
Mudbanks along the southwest coast of India are exposed to upwelled hypoxic waters and higher concentrations of methane during summer-monsoon.We report the phylogenetic composition of obligate and facultative anaerobic ...
Provenance tracing of long-range transported dust over the Northeastern Arabian Sea during the southwest monsoon
(Elsevier BV, 2020)
One of the major pathways for dust supply to surface water of the Arabian Sea is via wet deposition, which is significant during southwest Monsoon (June-September). Aeolian dust supplies macro and micronutrients, which can ...
Sub-surface magma movement inferred from low-frequency seismic events in the off-Nicobar region, Andaman Sea
(Nature Publishing Group, 2020)
Monitoring volcanic activity along the submarine volcanoes that are usually induced by subsurface magmatism is a challenge. We present fresh set of Ocean Bottom Seismometer (OBS) data that shows geophysical evidence ...
Physical forcing controls spatial variability in primary production in the Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2021)
In order to examine the spatial variability and controlling factors of primary production in the Indian Ocean, deck-incubation primary production (13C method) and hydrographic properties were measured at 25 locations during ...
Ecological responses of autotrophic microplankton to the eutrophication of the coastal upwelling along the Southwest coast of India
(Springer, 2021)
The primary ecological effects of the eutrophication of upwelling in the nearshore waters are the triggering and sustenance of phytoplankton (diatom) blooms. Here, we present the changes in the morphological characteristics ...
Biochemical responses of oysters in evaluating environmental quality of tropical Indian estuarine systems
(Elsevier, 2021)
Impact of varying concentrations and counts of toxic metals and indigenous bacteria on antioxidative defense system in edible oyster, Saccostrea cucullata, collected from four tropical estuarine systems of Goa (west coast ...
