Carbon demand, utilization, and metabolic diversity of bacterioplankton in the frontal regimes of the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean
(Springer, 2015)Bacterial production, respiration and metabolic di- versity were measured up to 120 m depth in the Sub-Antarctic Front (SAF) and Polar Fronts I and II (PFI and PFII) of the Indian Ocean sector of the Southern Ocean ... -
Synthesis of oxazole, oxazoline and isoxazoline derived marine natural products: A review
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2016)Secondary metabolites containing oxazole, oxazoline and isoxazoline ring skeletons are widely distributed in both marine and terrestrial organisms. They possess significant biological activities such as anti-tumor, ... -
Variations in concentrations and fluxes of dimethylsulfide (DMS) from the Indian estuaries
(Coastal and Estuarine Research Federation, 2016)In order to examine the variations in concentrations of dimethylsulfide (DMS) and its fluxes to the atmosphere, 25 major and medium estuaries from Indian subcontinent were sampled during wet and dry periods. River discharge ... -
First record of the synaptid holothurian Protankyrian protankyra Bidentata (Woodward and Barrett, 1858) from the Indian Ocean
(Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, 2015)Sea cucumbers (holothurians) are marine invertebrates that are harvested worldwide, mostly for human consumption in Asian countries To date, only eight species of synaptid holothurians of the genus Protankyra have been ... -
Effects of perivitelline fluid obtained from Horseshoe crab on the proliferation and genotoxicity of dental pulp stem cells
(Tehran: Royan Institute, 2015)Perivitelline fluid (PVF) of the horseshoe crab embryo has been reported to possess an important role during embryogenesis by promoting cell proliferation. This study aims to evaluate the effect of PVF on the proliferation, ... -
Mesoscale process-induced variation of the West India coastal current during the winter monsoon
(Springer, 2015)This manuscript presents the analysis of current meter records at Kollam and Kannur along the 20-m isobaths during November-December 2005 Currents in the coastal waters are strongly influenced by winds (both local and ... -
Spatial tidal asymmetry of Cochin estuary, West Coast, India
(Springer, 2015)An intensive one-month long observational campaign of tides and currents during dry season were used to describe the tidal dynamics and the spatial evolution of tidal asymmetry in Cochin estuary The estuary is described ... -
Phytoplankton community structure at the juncture of the Agulhas return front and subtropical front in the Indian Ocean sector of Southern Ocean: Bottom-up and top-down control
(Elsevier, 2015)The juncture of the Agulhas Return Front (ARF) and Subtropical Front (STF) in the Indian Ocean sector of Southern Ocean (SO) is characterized by high mesoscale turbulence, which results in sporadic, short lived phytoplankton ... -
Phytoplankton succession in a tropical freshwater lake, Bhoj Wetland (Bhopal, India): spatial and temporal perspective
(Springer, 2015)Bhoj Wetland is tropical freshwater system in central India "Bhopal" serving the citizens as one of the major source of water since its inception Understanding the process of phytoplankton variation can be particularly ... -
Impact of industrial effluents on geochemical association of metals within intertidal sediments of a creek
(Elsevier, 2015)Metal speciation studies were carried out on three intertidal core sediments of the industrially impacted Dudh creek located along west coast of India Metals indicated a drastic increase in the bioavailable fraction towards ... -
Regional variability in occurrence and distribution of polymetallic nodules in the central Indian Basin
(Taylor and Francis, 2016)Regional scale morphological studies on different-sized polymetallic nodules from the Central Indian Basin show that only 2–5 cm sized nodules have highest occurrence per station (92–94% along latitudes; 88–94% along ... -
Multiple ash layers in late Quaternary sediments from the Central Indian Basin
(Elsevier, 2016)We have investigated three sediment cores collected from water depths > 5000 m along the transect 76°30`E in close proximity to a fracture zone in the Central Indian Basin (CIB). The cores yielded five volcanic horizons ... -
Spatial distribution of suspended particulate matter in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries: inferences on the estuarine turbidity maximum
(Current Science Association, 2016)The present study estimate the suspended particulate matter in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries. samples were collected from the Mandovi (M0A–M9) and Zuari (Z0–Z8) estuaries and Cumbarjua canal (C0–C3).The spatial distribution ... -
A new species of Eutrachytes (Acari: Uropodina: Eutrachytidae) associated with the indian mangrove (Avicennia officinalis)
(Acarologia, 2016)A new species of Eutrachytes (Eutrachytes flagellatus) is described based on a complete ontogenetic series, starting from larva and including the adult female and male. This Uropodina mite was isolated from the pneumatophore ... -
Crustal structure and rift tectonics across the Cauvery–Palar basin, eastern continental margin of India based on seismic and potential field modelling
