Numerical Modelling of Ballast Water Dispersion in Different Bioregions along the Coast of India
(ASEAN Committee on Science and Technology (COST), 2018)
Aquatic organisms and pathogens may become major threats to the coastal and marine environment when introduced into a region beyond their natural distributions through ballast water (BW). Coastal currents induced by tides ...
Seasonal nutrient chemistry in mountainous river systems of tropical Western Peninsular India
(Taylor and Francis, 2015)
Nutrient chemistry was studied in three mountainous rivers (Mandovi, Zuari and Netravati), across western peninsular India (WPI) during south-west monsoon (SWM), post-monsoon and pre-monsoon seasons of year 2011-2012. ...
Prediction of daily sea surface temperature using artificial neural networks
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)
We present an artificial neural network model to predict the sea surface temperature (SST) and delineate SST fronts in the northe-astern Arabian Sea. The predictions are made one day in advance, using current days SST for ...
Preface: Microbial Community Response to Ocean Deoxygenation
(2018)
Preface by guest editors to the special issue on Ecosystem Response to Ocean Deoxygenation
Defaunation of meiofauna in Mumbai bay (India) - A severely polluted area
(Elsevier, 2017)
Meiofauna plays an important role in the benthic food web of shallow water ecosystems. In the present study, the status of meiofauna was addressed in the intertidal and subtidal environment of Mumbai bay (West coast of ...
Diversity of sediment-associated Planctomycetes in the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone
(Wiley, 2017)
We examined the diversity of Planctomycetes in the sediment sample collected from an oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) in the southeast Arabian Sea. A 16SrRNA gene library was constructed using the forward primer specific for ...
Role of eddies on intensity of oxygen minimum zone in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2018)
One of the strongest oxygen minimum zones (OMZ) in the world oceans occurs in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) with no systematic trends in dissolved oxygen (DO) since past half a century. An evaluation is made here to examine the ...
Diversity of culturable nitrate-reducing bacteria from the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone
(Elsevier, 2018)
The subsurface waters of the northern Arabian Sea display a pronounced oxygen minimum layer associated with high nitrite maxima which provide an ideal niche for organisms that can respire nitrate. Culture-based studies ...
Increased CO 2 availability promotes growth of a tropical coastal diatom assemblage (Goa coast, Arabian Sea, India)
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
Responses of tropical coastal phytoplankton assemblages to increasing CO2 levels are poorly known. The Arabian Sea (AS), the western part of the north Indian Ocean, is an upwelling-induced, highly productive region, but ...
