Massive Methane Loss During Seasonal Hypoxia/Anoxia in the Nearshore Waters of Southeastern Arabian Sea
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020)
Repeat observations over the Kochi and Mangalore shelves of the southeastern Arabian Sea (SEAS) during April to December 2012 revealed substantial accumulation of methane (CH4) in the nearshore waters (48.6 � 34.4 nM) ...
Copepods size structure in various phases of a cold-core eddy - Normalised Abundance Size Spectra (NASS) approach.
(Pergamon, 2020)
The present study addresses the copepods size structure in different phases of a cold-core eddy based on a 17 day time-series measurement (21st February to 8th March 2016) from a coastal site in the western Bay of Bengal ...
Sources of organic matter and tracing of nutrient pollution in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Pergamon, 2020)
Stable isotopic composition of carbon (delta13CPOM) and nitrogen (delta15NPOM) in the particulate organic matter (POM) is used to identify sources of organic carbon and nutrients using monthly time-series observation in ...
Structure and dynamics of undercurrents in the western boundary current of the Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2020)
The structure and variability of undercurrents in the East India Coastal Current (EICC), which is the western boundary current system in the Bay of Bengal (BoB), and the mechanisms of their formation are examined in this ...
A coherent response of Southern Indian Ocean to the Antarctic climate: Implications to the lead, lags of atmospheric CO2 during deglaciation
(Springer, 2020)
A record of delta18Oc from the Indian sector of Southern Ocean and atmospheric CO2, and delta18O of European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica (EPICA) and Greenland Ice Sheet Project 2 (GISP2) reveals that a coherent ...
Aberrations in the microbiome of cyanobacteria from a tropical estuary polluted by heavy metals
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
The effect of heavy metal pollution on the microbiome of cyanobacteria in Cochin estuary (CE) on the southwest coast of India is reported in the study. Statistically significant difference in heavy metal concentration was ...
Sagar Kanya Bathymetric High Complex: An extinct giant submarine volcanic caldera in the Eastern Arabian Sea?
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)
The marine geophysical investigations carried out in the Eastern Arabian Sea revealed the presence of a bathymetric high feature, referred to as the Sagar Kanya Seamount. The preliminary morphology and geophysical ...
The Global Implications of the Nitrogen Cycle: A Benthic Community Perspective
(Cambridge Scholars Publishing, New castle, UK, 2020)
The benthic ecosystem comprising coral reefs, seaweed, and seagrass beds contributes to organic matter mineralisation, food for many invertebrates and fishes, and plays a significant role in regulating the various ...
Oceanic rocks beneath the landmass and continental rocks below the ocean - geological complexities in Indian waters
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2020)
This brief write up reports two extreme geological cases found in waters around the Indian subcontinent. In the eastern side of the subcontinent, particularly beneath the Bengal onshore and offshore basins, proto-oceanic ...
Diversity of Bacterial Community in the Oxygen Minimum Zones of Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal as Deduced by Illumina Sequencing
(2020)
The Indian Ocean harbors oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) in the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal, with dissolved oxygen < 20 M, located at the mid-depths of the water column. Till date, high-throughput sequence-data on depth-wise ...
