Potential roles of Labyrinthula spp. in global seagrass population declines
(Elsevier, 2013)Overwhelming evidence suggests that seagrass ecosystems are declining around the world. Pathogens from the genus Labyrinthula have repeatedly been found to cause disease in a variety of seagrass species. For example, the ... -
DNA barcodes for marine fungal identification and discovery
(Elsevier, 2013)We employed DNA barcodes for identification of fungal species in marine sediments. Sediments were collected seasonally along the Southeast coast of India from which a culturable fungal library was constructed. All cultured ... -
Spatiotemporal variability in archaeal communities of tropical coastal waters
(Springer, 2013)Spatiotemporal variations in the archaeal community structure from four locations along the central west coast of India were analyzed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) profiling and sequencing of prominent ... -
Manglicolous fungi from Chorao mangroves, Goa, West coast of India: Diversity and frequency of occurrence
(E. Schweizerbart'sche Verlagsbuchhandlung, 2013)In this paper marine fungi colonizing the decomposing substrata belonging to Rhizophora mucronata and Avicennia marina, at Chorao mangroves, Mandovi river, Goa, West coast of India, are reported. Totally, 45 fungal species ... -
IODP expedition 334: An investigation of the sedimentary record, fluid flow and state of stress on top of the seismogenic zone of an erosive subduction margin
(Copernicus GmbH, 2013)The Costa Rica Seismogenesis Project (CRISP) is an experiment to understand the processes that control nucleation and seismic rupture of large earthquakes at erosional subduction zones. Integrated Ocean Drililng Program ... -
Rapid pulses of uplift, subsidence, and subduction erosion offshore Central America: Implications for building the rock record of convergent margins
(Geological Society of America, 2013)Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 334 to southern Costa Rica, Central America, documented unprecedented subduction erosion in an area of active seismic slip. Widespread subduction erosion of the upper ... -
Fermentation products of solvent tolerant marine bacterium Moraxella spp. MB1 and its biotechnological applications in salicylic acid bioconversion
(Public Library of Science, 2013)As part of a proactive approach to environmental protection, emerging issues with potential impact on the environment is the subject of ongoing investigation. One emerging area of environmental research concerns pharmaceuticals ... -

Settlement and recruitment of the barnacle Balanus amphitrite from a tropical environment influenced by monsoons
(Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2013)Studies on the settlement and the subsequent recruitment of intertidal organisms are crucial steps in understanding their population structure in a particular bioregion. However, studying the recruitment of intertidal ... -
Thick-shelled, grazer-protected diatoms decouple ocean carbon and silicon cycles in the iron-limited Antarctic Circumpolar Current
(National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2013)Diatoms of the iron-replete continental margins and North Atlantic are key exporters of organic carbon. In contrast, diatoms of the iron-limited Antarctic Circumpolar Current sequester silicon, but comparatively little ... -
Land-cover change in Goa– An Integrated RS – GIS Approach
(Geoinformatics International, 2013)Goa, with its’ scenic beauty of sandy beaches, large population with relatively low human development index, forms a part of the Western Ghats biodiversity hotspot. The advent of tourism, enhanced mining activities, and ... -
Description of a New Mangrove Root Dwelling Species of Teleotanais (Crustacea: Peracarida: Tanaidacea) from India, with a Key to Teleotanaidae
(Japanese Society of Systematic Zoology, 2013)Tanaidaceans collected from mangrove pneumatophores on the west coast of India included females and mancae of a new species of the rare and plesiomorphic family Teleotanaidae, described herein as Teleotanais indiaensisi ... -
Coastal vulnerability assessment of Puducherry coast, India, using the analytical hierarchical process
(European Geosciences Union, 2013)As a consequence of change in global climate, an increased frequency of natural hazards such as storm surges, tsunamis and cyclones, is predicted to have dramatic affects on the coastal communities and ecosystems by virtue ... -
Waves off Puducherry, Bay of Bengal, during cyclone THANE
(Springer, 2013)We studied the wave characteristics during the very severe cyclonic storm THANE which crossed the east coast of India between Puducherry and Cuddalore based on waves measured at a location in Bay of Bengal at 14 m water ... -
Influence of Saltwater Barrage on Tides, Salinity, and Chlorophyll a in Cochin Estuary, India
(Coastal Education and Reserch Foundation, 2013)Thanneermukkam Barrage (TB) is constructed in the southern arm of Cochin estuary. It prevents salt intrusion upstream and regulates river discharge downstream. Characteristics of the estuary when the barrage is opened and ... -
Estimation of Near-Field and Far-Field Dilutions for Site Selection of Effluent Outfall in a Coastal Region - A Case Study
(Coastal Education and Reserch Foundation, 2013)Site selection for release of industrial effluents is of prime concern for maintaining the quality of the marine environment. In this study, an attempt has been made to establish the prevailing ecological conditions and ... -
Simulation of Trajectories of Tar Ball Transport to the Goa Coast
(Springer, 2013)Arrival of tar balls to the Goa coast during pre- and southwest monsoon seasons has been a regular phenomenon in the past few years. In one such event, we observed tar ball deposits along the Goa coast during August 2010, ... -
Mesozooplankton community structure in the upper 1,000 m along the western Bay of Bengal during the 2002 fall intermonsoon
(Springer, 2013)Stratification, no upwelling, sediment load, and heavy cloud cover are known to limit primary production in the western Bay of Bengal. Studies on primary consumers in this area are few. Recent studies in the Bay have shown ... -
