Tidal control of heavy metal loading in the nearshore of the northwestern Indian coast
(Elsevier, 2025)Heavy metals accumulate in the marine food chain and their excessive amounts are hazardous to aquatic and human lives. The current study presents the role of ecosystem variables especially tides in deciding the presence ... -
Deciphering top-down impact of cerithiid gastropods on meiobenthic assemblages: insights from tropical estuaries along the central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2025)Macro-epifaunal grazers influence the infaunal communities through top-down control in intertidal estuarine ecosystems. The present study aimed to investigate the influence of cerithiid gastropod Pirenella cingulata ... -
Carbon dynamics in the intertidal rockpools along the central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2025)Shallow inter-tidal ecosystems such as rockpools provide important insights into the ongoing climatic changes and their consequences. We studied the diurnal and seasonal variations in carbon chemistry and associated ... -
Comparative Assessment of Heavy Metal Contamination and Pollution Trends in Indian Estuarine Sediments: Insights from East and West Coasts of India
(ACS Publications, 2025)This study presents a comparative assessment of heavy metal contamination in sediments from major Indian estuaries in recent decades. Metal concentration data were compiled from published literature and analyzed for Pb, ... -
Island mass effect alters the biogeochemistry of the coastal waters around Grande Island in the Eastern Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2025)Coastal oceans are highly dynamic regions of ecological and economic importance that are vulnerable to different stressors. We investigated the spatio-temporal variations in the biogeochemistry of the coastal waters ... -
Impacts of climate change on the morphodynamics of embayed beaches along the Central West Coast of India
(Elsevier, 2025)This study investigates the morphodynamics and climatic influences on twenty-seven embayed beaches along the central west coast of India utilizing a comprehensive framework that combines in-situ field observations and ... -
Metagenomic reconstruction of microbial genomes and biogeochemical pathways: insights into carbon and nitrogen flux dynamics in the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2025)The eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) experiences seasonal nutrient availability and productivity shifts driven by the Indian monsoon, influencing microbial contributions to biogeochemical cycles. This study explores carbon, ... -
Cost-effective copper nanoparticles for enhanced photocatalytic degradation of triarylmethane (TAM) dyes in direct seawater
(Elsevier, 2025)In recent years, the environmental impact of triarylmethane dyes (TAMs) has become an ever-increasing concern, as their widespread use in various industries has led to their persistent presence in wastewater, causing serious ... -
Fatty acid and sterol biomarkers as indicators of symbiont activity in chemosynthetic organisms from a methane seep ecosystem (Krishna-Godavari basin, Bay of Bengal)
(Springer, 2025)In the present study, an attempt was made to characterize the bacterial symbionts present in the organisms, their carbon sources and assess tissue-specific isotope variability within the organisms in Bathymodiolus, ... -
Climatology and Trends of Various Oceanic and Atmospheric Parameters in the Arabian Sea Over the Last 45?Years
(Wiley, 2025)This study investigates the timescale variability of key atmospheric and oceanic variables in the Arabian Sea (AS) using 45 years (1979–2023) of data. Analyzing sea surface temperature (SST), wind components, precipitation, ... -
Contrasting Historical Trends in Equatorial Indian Ocean Zonal Sea Surface Temperature Gradient in CMIP6 Models
(Wiley, 2025)The zonal sea surface temperature (SST) gradient in the tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) has been assessed using 50 climate models. Among these, 38 models exhibit an east�west negative gradient trend, indicating an intensified ... -
Diapycnal oxygen flux in the oxycline region of the core of the Arabian Sea Oxygen Minimum Zone
(Elsevier, 2025)This study quantified the relative contributions of double diffusion and shear-driven mixing on the diapycnal oxygen flux in the oxycline region of the core of the Arabian Sea Oxygen Minimum Zone (OMZ), a critical oceanic ... -
Spatial variation of micrometeorite abundance in global ocean
(Elsevier, 2025)Annually, Earth accumulates ∼40,000 tons of cosmic dust, with ∼4000–6000 tons reaching the surface as micrometeorites (MMs). This study analyzes ∼3 tons of wet sediments and ∼5000 MMs from the Central Indian Ocean Basin, ... -
Community guidelines to increase the reusability of marine microfossil assemblage data
(The Micropalaeontological Society, 2025)Data on marine microfossil assemblage composition have multiple applications. Initially, they were primarily used for (chrono)stratigraphy and palaeoecology, but these data are now also widely used to study evolutionary ... -
Mangrove Community Structure Following Dieback Events in the Maldives: Special Emphasis on the Genus Bruguiera
(Springer, 2025)Climate change is driving significant transformations in coastal and wetland ecosystems. A large-scale dieback event of Bruguiera cylindrica was observed in the northern islands of Maldives, attributed to extreme climatic ... -
Deep-sea life associated with sediments and polymetallic nodules from the Central Indian Ocean Basin: Insights from 18S metabarcoding
(Elsevier, 2025)The eukaryotic diversity of ocean sediments and polymetallic nodules (PMN) from the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) is scarcely characterized and molecular studies are lacking, comprising a key research gap. This study ... -
Unveiling diversity in inhabited and uninhabited reefs of the Lakshadweep archipelago, India using eDNA
(Frontiers, 2025)Coral reefs are important ecosystems that host a variety of life and provide essential services to ecosystems and people. But they are increasingly at risk due to human activities and climate change. In India, Lakshadweep ... -
Source, bioavailability, and toxicity of metals in modern fjord sediments, west Spitsbergen, and their influence on sediment-associated biota
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2024)Metal contamination in the Arctic region has increased over the years despite its remote and isolated location. Thus, to evaluate the bioavailable fractions of various metals and their effects on sediment-associated biota, ... -
Evaluation of fate of organic matter in sediment through microcosm experiments
(Wiley Online Library, 2024)Laboratory microcosm experiments help to understand the degradation pattern of different sources derived from organic matter (OM) at the sediment?water interface and relate it to field processes. Microcosm experiments were ... -
Variations in wind wave parameters measured in the coastal waters of north-eastern Bay of Bengal
Characteristics of the wind waves measured in the coastal waters of the northeastern Bay of Bengal are examined for 4 years. A comparison of the energy wave period (Te) with different wave periods shows that the average ...
