Novel Coronavirus (Covid-19): A Review on Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, Molecular Mechanism, Therapeutic Evidence and Preventive Measures
(Oriental Scientific Publishing Company, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India, 2020)
Currently, the deadly disease COVID-19 was exponentially spread across the world as a pandemic outbreak caused by a novel coronavirus, termed as SARS-CoV-2 (Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2). In this view, ...
Spatio-temporal Variations in Bacterial Abundance with an Emphasis on Fecal Indicator Bacteria and Vibrio spp. in and around Visakhapatnam Port, East Coast of India
(UGM Press, 2020)
The ecological health of port environments, which are dynamic and hotspots of anthropogenic activities, can be analyzed using specific pathogenic bacteria as they provide definite evidence and source of pollution. The ...
Influence of environmental parameters on bio-optical characteristics of colored dissolved organic matter in a complex tropical coastal and estuarine region
(Elsevier BV, 2020)
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is an important source of carbon in aquatic ecosystems, and colored DOM (CDOM), which is smaller than 0.2 mu m and interacts with ultraviolet (UV) and visible light, affects the spectral ...
Changes in depositional environment of the Savitri (tropical) estuary, central west coast of India
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021)
Transformation of coastal regions as a result of recent climate change and localised human influences is of concern. Thus, understanding of the changes that have already occurred, the processes responsible for these changes, ...
Comparison of bacterial diversity from two mangrove ecosystems from India through metagenomic sequencing: Comparative mangrove bacterial diversity using metagenomics
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
In the present study, we explored the microbial diversity of two mangrove regions, Mangalavanam (MAN) and Puthuvype (PVY), in Cochin, India. While PVY is a coastal island, MAN lies in the heart of the mainland of Cochin, ...
Fish composition and assemblage structure in tropical monsoonal estuaries: Estuarine use and feeding guild approach
(Elsevier BV, 2020)
The structure of fish guilds was analysed in four tropical monsoonal estuaries, namely Zuari, Mandovi, Terekhol and Kali, along India�s western coast. The fish were sampled from 2017 to 2019 both temporally and spatially: ...
A deep-sea hydrogen peroxide-stable alkaline serine protease from Aspergillus flavus
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2020)
We report here the production of an alkaline serine protease by Aspergillus flavus isolated at 5600-m depth from deep-sea sediments of the Central Indian Basin. When grown on defatted groundnut oil meal at 30��C for 48-72�h, ...
Scanning Electron Microscopic Studies of Fossil Pteropods from the Andaman Sea: Inferences on Carbonate Dissolution
(Indian National Science Academy, 2020)
Among the different microfossils group, pteropods are least studied zooplanktons having delicate aragonitic shells which are very susceptible to dissolution. The present study has been carried out to understand the effect ...
Diversity of culturable Sulphur-oxidising bacteria in the oxygen minimum zones of the northern Indian Ocean
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
Oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) are unique, widely spread and well-studied features of the global ocean, varying in seasonality and intensity. The Northern Indian Ocean contains OMZs in the Arabian Sea (AS-OMZ) and the Bay of ...
Bay of Bengal Sea surface salinity variability using a decade of improved SMOS re-processing
(Elsevier Inc., 2020)
Monsoon rain and rivers bring large freshwater input to the Northern Bay of Bengal (BoB), yielding low Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) after the monsoon. The resulting sharp upper-ocean salinity stratification is thought to ...
