Triterpenoids and fatty alcohols as indicators of mangrove derived organic matter in Northern Kerala Coast, India
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Triterpenoids and fatty alcohols were identified from the sediments of five mangrove ecosystems (Kunjimangalam, Pazhayangadi, Pappinissery, Thalassery, and Kadalundi) in the northern Kerala coast, India, to illustrate the ...
Are Artificial Barrages Necessary to Prevent Saline Incursion? A Modelling Approach to Restore the Healthy Ecosystem of the Vembanad Lake
(Springer, 2022)
The Thanneermukkom Bund was constructed to prevent salt water intrusion in the low lying areas of the Kuttanad region which increase the paddy cultivation twice in a year.Without it, paddy cultivation would be limited to ...
Tracing terrestrial versus marine sources of dissolved organic carbon in the largest monsoonal Godavari estuary in India using stable carbon isotopes
(Elsevier, 2022)
To examine the sources of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and its modifications within the estuary, time-series sampling was conducted at 10 stations covering the entire salinity range in the Godavari estuary.The salinity ...
Satellite-based spectral mapping (ASTER and landsat data) of mineralogical signatures of beach sediments: A precursor insight
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Detailed investigation on texture and mineralogy of beach sediments helps to understand their nature of deposition and potential targets of strategic mineral deposits.The beach sediments from the coast of Thiruvananthapuram, ...
Seasonal variability in aeolian dust deposition fluxes and their mineralogical composition over the Northeastern Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2022)
Atmospheric mineral dust is derived from arid/semi-arid region, undergoes long-range transport, and can impact surface biogeochemical processes in the pristine marine region.This study reports fluxes of mineral dust (wet ...
Geochemistry and granulometry as indicators of paleoclimate, weathering, and provenance of sediments for the past 1,00,000 years in the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2022)
Geochemical and granulometric investigation of a 408 cm long sediment core raised from the Eastern Arabian Sea was carried out to decipher the climate, weathering, dust flux and provenance of sediments during the past 100 ...
Rock magnetic evidence of tectonic control on the sedimentation and diagenesis in the Andaman Sea over ~1 million years
(Elsevier, 2021)
We evaluate the sedimentary (magnetic, mineralogical, geochemical, grain size) records of a long sediment core (NGHP-01-17 A) to elucidate the tectonic control on the sedimentation and diagenesis in the Andaman Sea (AS) ...
Isolation and Identification of Tyrosinase Inhibitors from Marine Algae Enteromorpha sp
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2021)
The extract of marine green algae Enteromorpha sp. was evaluated in vitro for inhibitory activity against mushroom tyrosinase enzyme. The principle active agents i.e. coumarin; 4-hydroxycoumarin (1) and two sterols; ...
Wave crest height distribution during the tropical cyclone period
(2020)
The wave crest height plays a vital role in designing both the fixed and floating marine structures. The present study examines the measured wave crest data at 18 m water depth off Visakhapatnam in the northwestern Bay of ...
Aerosol distribution during spring and summer and its relationship with Inter-Annual variability of summer monsoon rainfall over Indian region
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
The inter-annual variability of aerosol over Indian region and its possible implications on the Indian summer monsoon is investigated using Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) data from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer ...
