(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)Analysis of Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission derived sea surface salinity (SSS) during April 2015 to December 2017 in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) shows first revelation of new insight of existence of 30- to 90-day ... -
Regioselective synthesis of pyrrole and indole-fused isocoumarins catalysed by N-O chelate ruthenium(II) complex
(Springer India, 2018)Heterocyclic compounds containing pyrrole and indole-fused isocoumarins were obtained from a one-pot synthesis via annulations of N-heterocyclic carboxylic acids and alkynes with N-O chelate ruthenium(II) complex, ... -
Dynamics of size-fractionated phytoplankton biomass in a monsoonal estuary: Patterns and drivers for seasonal and spatial variability
(Elsevier, 2018)Phytoplankton size-fractionated biomass is an important determinant of the type of food web functioning in aquatic ecosystems. Knowledge about the effect of seasonal salinity gradient on the size-fractionated biomass ... -
Quantitative estimation of elemental composition employing a synthetic generated spectrum
(The Optical Society, USA, 2018)Composition of multielement samples is estimated by using a synthetic generated spectrum utilizing a nonlinear fitting routine. By fitting simultaneously a large number of emission lines, the error in the estimation is ... -
Impact of seasonal monsoon on coastal weather condition: a case study at Vengurla, west coast of India
(NISCAIR-CSIR, India, 2018)Study on coastal weather at Vengurla, west coast of India showed considerable seasonal climate variation. Diurnal variation of wind speed along with deviation of coastal breezes is gentle during pre-and post-monsoon periods. ... -
Spatial variability of microzooplankton in the central Arabian Sea during spring intermonsoon
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)Spatial variability of microzooplankton (MZP; organisms in size 20-200 -m) along with total heterotrophic bacteria (THB) and picophytoplankton in the upper 120-m water column of the central Arabian Sea (AS) was studied ... -
Fine-grained volatile components ubiquitous in solar nebula: Corroboration from scoriaceous cosmic spherules
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)The scoriaceous cosmic spherules (CSs) that make up to a few percent (for sizes >150 -m size) of total micrometeorite flux are ubiquitous and have remained enigmatic. The present work provides in-depth study of 81 scoriaceous ... -
234-Th-Based Carbon Export Flux Along the Indian GEOTRACES GI02 Section in the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)234-Th (t1/2 = 24.1 d), present in seawater, is a naturally occurring particle-reactive radionuclide formed through the radioactive decay of its parent, 238U (t1/2 = 4.47 x 109 years). The 234Th:238U disequilibrium is ... -
Assessing the environmental significance of benthic foraminiferal morpho-groups from the northern high latitudinal regions
(Elsevier, 2018)The spatial distribution of benthic foraminiferal morpho-groups has been documented from the Kongsfjorden-Krossfjorden, to assess its environmental significance. Benthic foraminiferal abundance increases from the inner-most ... -
Estuarine turbidity maximum in six tropical minor rivers, central west coast of India
(IWA Publishing, 2018)Understanding patterns of erosion and sedimentation and their driving mechanisms is important for formulating a variety of estuarine management issues (conservation, shoreline protection, navigation, dredging and embanking). ... -
Indian monsoon variability in the last 2000 years as inferred from benthic foraminifera
(Elsevier, 2018)The effect of ambient conditions on living (Rose-Bengal stained) benthic foraminifera has been studied from the shelf and slope of the central-western Bay of Bengal to assess the applicability of temporal changes in benthic ... -
Behaviour of trace metals in the anoxic environment of Veraval harbour, India
(Elsevier, 2018)The purpose of the present study is to investigate the behaviour of trace metals in anoxic environment. Water column of the harbour was found to be anoxic (DO <0.2mgl-1) with high concentration of NH4+-N (av. 459±21-moll-1) ... -
Ecological indications of copepods to oxygen-deficient near-shore waters
(Elsevier, 2018)Dissolved oxygen deficiency and its impacts on marine organisms is an important research topic world over. In this study, we utilized the advantage of a shallow seasonal hypoxic zone occurring along the Southwest Coast of ... -
River plume fronts and their implications for the biological production of the Bay of Bengal, Indian Ocean
(Inter-Research Science Center, Oldendorf/Luhe, Germany, 2018)Fronts are the physical interface between water masses of distinct hydrographic characteristics and are ubiquitous features of the Bay of Bengal (BoB). They form as a result of receiving high freshwater runoff from many ... -
Seasonal variations in the water quality of six tropical micro and meso-tidal estuaries, central west coast of India
(CSIRO PUBLISHING, 2018)Seasonal nutrient dynamics were investigated in four rivers with a microtidal range (Terekhol, Chapora, Sal and Talpona rivers) and were compared with those of two rivers with a mesotidal range (Zuari and Mandovi rivers) ... -
