New evidence on the sequence of deglacial warming in the tropical Indian Ocean
(John Wiley, 2010)The transition from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene was an internal of climate variability that was characterised by large spatial and temporal variations. Here we show that deglaciation warming in the northern ... -
Mysids (Crustacea) from the salt pans of Mumbai, India, with a description of a new species
(Taylor & Francis, 2010)The taxonomy, distribution and ecology of mysids collected from the salt pans of Mumbai, India, were studied. Two mysid species are represented, of which one species, Indomysis nybini, is described as new to science. The ... -
A new species of portunid crab of the genus Charybdis (De Haan, 1833) (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura) from Goa, India
(Taylor & Francis, 2010)A new species of portunid crab, Charybdis (Charybdis) goaensis sp. nov. is described from Goa, west coast of India. It differs from its closest congener, Charybdis (Charybdis) philippinensis in possessing bluntly triangular ... -
Large fault fabric of the Ninetyeast Ridge implies near-spreading ridge formation
(American Geophysical Union, 2010)Ninetyeast Ridge (NER) is a linear volcanic ridge in the Indian Ocean thought to have formed by hotspot volcanism on the northward?drifting Indian plate. Geological data from the ridge are sparse, so its tectonic evolution ... -
Changes in abundance and nature of microimpact craters on the surfaces of Australasian microtektites with distance from the proposed source crater location
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2010)Over 4600 Australasian microtektites from 11 sediment cores along an N-S transect in the Central Indian Ocean have been investigated optically for microimpact features on their surfaces. Detailed scanning electron microscope ... -
Indian summer monsoon and winter hydrographic variations over past millennia resolved by clay sedimentation
(American Geophysical Union, 2010)Reconstruction of century-scale Indian monsoon and winter hydrography is made from an AMS-dated core located in the unique region of the southeast Arabian Sea which lies in the pathways of the low salinity Bay of Bengal ... -
Characterizing the estuarine riverbed using acoustic technique
(IEEE, 2010)Single transact of multi-beam bathymetry and backscatter data is acquired from Mandovi estuary of Goa, India for three days during the pre-monsoon session. The measurements were made during the high tide. In this work, ... -
Integrated Coastal Observation Network (ICON) for real-time monitoring of sea-level, sea-state, and surface-meteorological data
(IEEE, 2010)National Institute of Oceanography (NIO), Goa, India has established an Integrated Coastal Observation Network (ICON) of in-house designed and developed Internet-accessible real/near-real time reporting cellular based ... -
First nodule to first mine-site: Development of deep-sea mineral resources from the Indian Ocean
(Current Science Association, 2010)Polymetallic nodules found on the deep seafloor (> 4000 m water depth) have been recognized as an alternative source for certain metals, when land deposits get exhausted. Spread over millions of square kilometres on the ... -
Occurrence of cyanobacteria - diatom symbiosis in the Bay of Bengal: Implications in biogeochemistry
(Current Science Association, 2010)Diazotrophs (N sub(2) fixing organisms), mainly belonging to cyanobacteria, form a major group of phytoplankton in nutrient poor oligotrophic oceans. These organisms support non-diazotrophic phytoplankton community and ... -
Response of coastal vegetation and the need for green belts along the Tamil Nadu coast, India: The December 2004 tsunami experience
(Nova Science Pub., 2010)The Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004 transmitted multiple lessons: whereas certain strips were destroyed in totality, others remained unaffected or practically intact. Detailed post-tsunami field surveys conducted ... -
Building digital collections: An evaluation
(DELNET, 2010)The difference between 'digital collection' and 'digital library' has been explained. The evaluation parameters for digital collections are described. These are based on the basic principles of the digital collection. The ... -
Impact of sewage disposal on a nematode community of a tropical sandy beach
(Triveni Enterprises, 2010)Free-living marine nematodes from an intertidal sandy beach from Goa near the Panjim city, central west coast of India was investigated along a gradient of sewage pollution. High nematode diversity (11 species) and abundance ... -

Bathymetric highs in the mid-slope region of the western continental margin of India - Structure and mode of origin
(Elsevier, 2010)Analysis of the multi- and single beam bathymetric, seismic, magnetic and free-air gravity (ship-borne and satellite derived) data from the western continental margin of India between 12 degrees 40 minutes N and 15 degrees ... -
Dispersion and retrievability of water quality indicators during tidal cycles in coastal Salaya, Gulf of Kachchh (West coast of India)
(Springer, 2010)Bacterial indicators in relation to tidal variations were studied at five locations for over 2 days covering three tidal cycles in the southwestern region of Gulf of Kachchh, India. Tidal flow here is predominantly in the ... -
New geological-geophysical data on the structure of the Ninetyeast Ridge
(Pleiades Publishing, 2010)The Ninetyeast (or East Indian) Ridge is one of the longest aseismic volcanic ridges in the World Ocean and one of the longest linear structures of the Earth. It is 200 km wide on average, and it extends in the meridional ...
