Integrated Geochemical and Morphological Data Provide Insights into the Genesis of Ferromanganese Nodules
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute- MDPI AG, Basel, Switzerland, 2018)
Ferromanganese nodules grow by precipitation of metals from seawater and/or sediment pore water. The formation of different genetic types depends on the composition and redox conditions of the water and upper sediment ...
The GEOTRACES Intermediate Data Product 2017
(Elsevier, 2018)
The GEOTRACES Intermediate Data Product 2017 (IDP2017) is the second publicly available data product of the international GEOTRACES programme, and contains data measured and quality controlled before the end of 2016. The ...
Benthic dinoflagellate blooms in tropical intertidal rock pools: Elucidation of photoprotection mechanisms
(Springer, 2017)
Intertidal rockpools (RPs), forming a ubiquitous component of rocky shores, are biologically rich ecosystems influenced by short-term (hours-days) and long-term (days-seasons) fluctuating environments. So far, studies on ...
Settlement of non-native Watersipora subtorquata (DeOrbigny, 1852) in artificial collectors deployed in Colombo Port, Sri Lanka
(Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre - REABIC, Helsinki, Finland, 2018)
Sri Lanka has been a key node in the historical maritime �silk route� since the 14th century. Colombo Port, with its strategic location in the Indian Ocean, handles most of the country�s foreign cargo. With increased foreign ...
Archaeology of lighthouses along the Indian coast with reference to a lighthouse at Kodinar, Gujarat
(Indian Archaeological Society, 2011)
A lighthouse is an important aid for navigation and they are in use for the past 2500 years The archaeological remains of light houses are meagre in India and the earliest remains are not dated earlier than the medieval ...
Pathogenic multiple antimicrobial resistant Escherichia coli serotypes in recreational waters of Mumbai, India: A potential public health risk
(Springer, 2017)
Globally, coastal waters have emerged into a pool of antibiotic resistance genes and multiple antibiotic resistant microorganisms, and pathogenicity of these resistant microorganisms in terms of serotypes and virulence ...
Improved Sprouting and Growth of Mung Plants in Chromate Contaminated Soils Treated with Marine Strains of Staphylococcus Species
(Springer, 2017)
Marine bacteria possess a wide variety of bioremediation potential which is beneficial environmentally and economically. In this study, bacterial isolates from marine waters were screened for tolerance and growth in high ...
Bacterial activity in hydrogenetic ferromanganese crust from the Indian Ocean: A combined geochemical, experimental and pyrosequencing study
(Springer, 2017)
The Afanasiy-Nikitin Seamount (ANS) in the Equatorial Indian Ocean harbors hydrogenetic ferromanganese (Fe-Mn) crusts. It was hypothesized that the bacteria associated with the crust catalyze the precipitation of metal ...
Bio-prospecting of coral (Porites lutea) mucus associated bacteria, Palk Bay reefs, Southeast coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)
Coral mucus is one of the key localization in the coral holobiont, as this serves as an energy rich substrate for a wide range of abundant, diverse and multifunctional microbiota. However, very little is known about the ...
Microwave-induced bismuth(III)-catalyzed synthesis of linear indoloquinolines
(Elsevier, 2017)
Microwave-induced Bi(NO3)3-catalyzed one-pot synthesis of a series of linear indoloquinolines is accomplished under mild reaction conditions. While majority of these examples were carried out under solvent-free conditions, ...
