Characteristics of individual surface waves measured by moored buoys in the coastal waters of the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2022)
In this study, the characteristics of the individual surface waves in the eastern Arabian Sea over one year are examined based on the measured time-series data using Waverider buoys at four locations covering ~500 km of ...
Hilbert-Huang transform analysis of surface wavefield under tropical cyclone Hudhud
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
The characteristics of an evolving ocean surface wavefield under tropical cyclone Hudhud that took place in October 2014 are investigated. The Hilbert-Huang transformation (HHT) is used for the spectral analysis of the ...
Phthalic acid esters - A grave ecological hazard in Cochin estuary, India
(2020)
Distribution and ecological risks of Phthalic acid esters (PAEs) are poorly studied in estuarine environments in India. An attempt is made to chart the sources and assess the ecological risk of six PAE congeners (Σ6PAEs), ...
Extending the limit of widespread dispersed Toba volcanic glass shards and identification of new in-situ volcanic events in the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Springer, 2020)
We report the widespread extent of Toba volcanic glass shards in the Central Indian Ocean Basin. Investigation of four sediment cores (7o-17oS) revealed several shard-rich horizons (SRH) that provide the first detailed ...
A roadmap to IndOOS-2: Better observations of the rapidly-warming Indian Ocean
(American Meteorological Society, 2020)
The Indian Ocean Observing System (IndOOS), established in 2006, is a multinational network of sustained oceanic measurements that underpin understanding and forecasting of weather and climate for the Indian Ocean region ...
Functional and taxonomic (? and ?) diversity patterns of macrobenthic communities along a depth gradient (19-2639 m): A case study from the southern Indian continental margin
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Identifying the drivers that shape the biodiversity of a region is important to predict the response of ecosystems to environmental changes. Macrofaunal distribution pattern in the North Indian Ocean has so far been mainly ...
Autonomous profiling float observations reveal the dynamics of deep biomass distributions in the denitrifying oxygen minimum zone of the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Data from 13 autonomous profiling BGC-Argo floats, equipped with biogeochemical and bio-optical sensors deployed between 2011 and 2016, were used to explore the potential of bio-optical methods to map deep biomass distribution ...
Preliminary study on the response of marine fungoid protists, the thraustochytrids, to lipid extracts of diatoms
(Springer, 2020)
Thraustochytrids are particle-associated protists, ubiquitous in the marine environment. They are known to display a negative relationship with phytoplankton cells but a positive one with their exudates and detritus. ...
Salmonella Contamination of Seafood in Landing Centers and Retail Markets of Mumbai, India
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020)
Background: Seafood contamination with Salmonella enterica is not only a public health concern, but can also lead to economic losses due to import rejections. Continuous monitoring of seafood for Salmonella is necessary ...
Degradation of tarballs using associated bacterial consortia
(Springer, 2020)
Tarballs are semi-solid blobs of crude-oil formed in marine environment. Microbial degradation of tarballs is poorly understood, though there are indications that tarball-associated microbes can degrade recalcitrant ...
