Estimation of potential tidal energy along the west coast of India
(World Scientific, 2017)
Tidal energy is one of the clean and non-depleting renewable energy sources. In contrast to other clean sources, such as wind, solar, geothermal etc., tidal energy can be predicted for years ahead. Also, the medium, seawater, ...
Development of marine flyash concrete and evaluation of its performance with respect to physico-chemical and biological factors in marine environment
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2004)
The aim of the research was to develop flyash concrete and assess various factors controlling its durability in the marine environment. Hence the research was planned with the following objectives in mind: (1) Development ...
Observations of the sub-inertial, near-surface East India Coastal Current
(Elsevier, 2017)
We present surface current measurements made using two pairs of HF (high-frequency) radars deployed on the east coast of India. The radar data, used in conjunction with data from acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) ...
Diversity and distribution of echinoderms in the South Eastern Arabian Sea shelf under the influence of seasonal hypoxia
(Elsevier, 2018)
The South Eastern Arabian Sea (SEAS) margin represents a tropical eastern boundary upwelling system, which is subjected to intense seasonal hypoxia in the continental shelf, and impingement of oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) ...
Comment on a paper by Sibuet et al. (2016) entitled �Thinned continental crust intruded by volcanics beneath the northern Bay of Bengal�
(Elsevier, 2017)
This comment applauds the survey carried out by Sibuet et al. (2016) but authors believe that their principal conclusion is in error. The Northern Bay of Bengal crust is the typical oceanic crust associated with volcanic ...
Psychrotrophic metal tolerant bacteria for mobilisation of metals in Antarctic waters
(LIGHTS Research Foundation, 2012)
Cold tolerant psychrotrophic bacteria abound in the Antarctic waters. While Antarctic krills are known to concentrate heavy metals at ppm levels, psychrotrophic bacteria from Antarctic fresh and marine waters have been ...
Deep-sea mining: Current status and future considerations
(Springer, 2017)
Deep-sea minerals such as polymetallic nodule, hydrothermal sulphides, and ferro-manganese crusts have for long attracted attention as an alternative source of metals to terrestrial deposits. The occurrence of many of these ...
Investigations of the spatial and temporal variations of Sr and Nd isotopes in sediments from two Indian Rivers: Implications to source identification
(Wiley, 2017)
Radiogenic isotopes of Sr and Nd provide crucial information on chemical and physical erosion processes, therefore used as tracers for fingerprinting the sources of fluvial sediments. Moreover, elemental geochemistry, ...
Molecular phylogeny of Neodevriesia, with two new species and several new combinations
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
To identify Cladosporium-like isolates associated with marine algae, phylogenetic analyses were conducted using a combined data set of the nuc rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 = ITS), 28S gene, ...
Archaeology of bet Dwarka island: An excavation report
