Phytoplankton communities in marine intertidal rock-pools: Effect of location, geometric shapes and allelopathy
(Springer, 2021)Biologically rich rock-pools (RPs) are prominent component of rocky intertidal habitat and this study elucidates the factors aAecting the phytoplankton distribution from high-tide (HT), mid-tide (MT) and low-tide (LT) RPs ... -
Sound speed variation in the coastal waters off Cochin and signature of subsurface maxima
(Springer, 2021)We investigated the vertical and horizontal variation of the sound speed using the Thermodynamic Equation Of Seawater-2010 (TEOS-10) and monthly CTD observations at Cochin estuary and adjacent coastal waters (inlet to 20 ... -
Evolution mechanism of contrasting phases of consecutive IOD events from 1994 to 1998
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2021)The Dipole Mode Index (DMI), an Index used to represent the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), shows a back to back occurrence of positive and negative IOD events during the period 1994 to 1998. The year 1994 was a strong positive ... -
Response of the bacterial metagenome in port environments to changing environmental conditions
(Elsevier, 2021)Port environments are highly dynamic and hotspots for marine bioinvasion. This study investigated the bacterial diversity at two geographically distant ports (Mangalore-marine port; and Haldia-riverine port) using ... -
Sedimentation rate and organic matter dynamics shape microbiomes across a continental margin
(European Geosciences Union, 2021)Marine sedimentation rate and bottom-water O2 concentration control organic carbon remineralization and sequestration across continental margins, but whether and how they shape microbiome architecture (the ultimate effector ... -
Seasonality of macrobenthic assemblages and the biotic environmental quality of the largest monsoonal estuary along the west coast of India
(Springer, 2021)This study deals with the macrobenthic assemblages and the biotic environmental quality of Kochi backwaters (KBW), India. Due to the heavy river discharge, extensive limnetic and turbid conditions prevailed in the KBW ... -
Comparative assessment of amino acids composition in two types of marine fish silage
(Nature Publishing Group, 2021)Fish silage is a brown liquefied product achieved by the action of enzymes when finely grounded whole/parts of either single or mixed fish types are subjected to acidification. This study made a comparative assessment of ... -
Spectral peak wave period climatology and its relationship with natural climate variability over the Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2021)The predominance of swells or wind-seas at a location can be inferred from the spectral peak wave period (Tp). The present study examines the climatology of Tp and its variability in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) during the last ... -
Implications of an extensive salt water barrage on the distribution of black clam in a tropical estuarine system, Southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)Based on a monthly field sampling over a year in the Kochi backwaters (KBW), this study presents the larval ecology of black clam and discusses how an extensive saltwater barrage [Thannermukkom barrage (TB)] impacted the ... -
Role of river discharge and warming on ocean acidification and pCO2 levels in the Bay of Bengal
(Taylor and Francis, 2021)Shifts in surface ocean pCO2 and pH are important controls governing global climate. Based on the linear relationship of observed surface pH and pCO2 with sea surface temperature (SST), sea surface salinity (SSS) and ... -
Cyclone Hudhud-eddy induced phytoplankton bloom in the northern Bay of Bengal using a coupled model
(Elsevier, 2021)The present study explored the role of the pre-existing cyclonic eddy on the chlorophyll-a (Chla) bloom after a cyclone pass over the northern Bay of Bengal (BoB). We used a high-resolution (~9 km) Regional Ocean Modeling ... -
Characterization of archaeal symbionts of sponges from the coral reef ecosystems of the Gulf of Mannar, Southeast coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)Sponges accommodate a diverse group of microorganisms with varied metabolic capabilities. The bacterial associates of sponges are widely studied while our understanding of archaeal counterparts is scanty. In the present ... -
Ferromanganese oxide deposits: Geochemical and microbiological perspectives of interactions of cobalt and nickel
(Elsevier, 2021)Bacterial participation in the formation of ferromanganese (Fe-Mn) mineral deposits is highly debated, as the precipitation of metals could occur by both chemical and biologically mediated mechanisms. Besides, the enrichment ... -
Fate of MV Wakashio oil spill off Mauritius coast through modelling and remote sensing observations
(Elsevier, 2021)This study aims at assessing the fate of MV Wakashio oil spill, and the driving forces responsible for possible environmental consequences of polluted coastal region. GNOME simulations were performed, considering various ... -
Untangling the effect of organic matter and dissolved oxygen on living benthic foraminifera in the southeastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2021)We studied the relationship between organic carbon in sediments (%Corg), bottom water dissolved oxygen and living benthic foraminifera in a marginal marine upwelling setting from the southeastern Arabian Sea to develop ... -
Enhancement of performance in the disk-shaped dual band microstrip patch antenna for the advanced IoT based 5G applications
(Springer, Singapore, 2021)In this paper, the authors have enhanced the performance in the various characteristics of disk-shaped microstrip patch antenna very much useful for the latest fifth-generation (5G) wireless communication and its advanced ... -
Microplankton size structure induced by a warm-core eddy in the western Bay of Bengal: Role of Trichodesmium abundance
(Elsevier, 2021)Mesoscale warm-core eddies are common in the Bay of Bengal (BoB), and this study in the western BoB during Pre-Southwest Monsoon (April 2015) presents how a prolonged warm-core core eddy could modify the microplankton ... -
Environmental association of heterotrophic micro-eukaryotes in the varying biogeochemical regimes of the Arabian Sea, resolved via high-throughput sequencing
