Arabian Sea oceanography and fisheries
Madhupratap, M.; Nair, K.N.V.; Venugopal, P.; Gauns, M.; Haridas, P.; Gopalakrishnan, T.C.; Nair, K.K.C. (Fishery Survey of India, 2004)The physical and chemical forcing which drive the Arabian production is now fairly well understood. The main attributes, which contribute to the productivity are (1) the boundary processes which manifest as upwelling during ... -

Arsenic enrichment in estuarine sediments-impact of iron and manganese mining
Nair, M.; Joseph, T.; Balachandran, K.K.; Nair, K.K.C.; Paimpillii, J.S. (BUET, Bangladesh, 2003)River Mandovi and Zuari, Goa (west coast of India) are flowing through iron and manganese mining areas and are heavily used for iron and manganese ore transport. This region generates 25-30 million tons of mining rejects ... -

(Marine Biological Association of India, 1992)Benthic ecology of certain selected seasonal and perennial prawn fields in the Cochin Backwaters, Kerala, India was studied for understanding the environmental factors controlling the abundance of the major groups of ... -
Biogeochemistry of the surficial sediments of the western and eastern continental shelves of India
Jacob, J.; Chandramohanakumar, N.; Jayaraj, K.A.; Raveendran, T.V.; Balachandran, K.K.; Joseph, T.; Nair, M.; Achuthankutty, C.T.; Nair, K.K.C.; George, R.; Ravi, Z.P. (Coastal Education and Reserch Foundation, 2008)Even though continental margins cover only about 7-9 % of the world ocean area, they are important sites for organic carbon accumulation and hence play a major role in biogeochemical carbon cycling. Surface sediments from ... -
Biological characteristics of Central Indian Basin waters during the southern summer
Matondkar, S.G.P.; Nair, K.K.C.; Ansari, Z.A. (Taylor and Francis, 2005)Phytoplankton biomass, taxonomy, primary productivity, and photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) were studied as part of baseline data collection for prospective nodule mining in the Central Indian Basin during the ... -
Breathing Cochin backwaters: Need for conservation
Nair, K.K.C. (National Institute of Oceanography, Goa., 2002)The foregoing account, it is evident that Vembanad Lake, including the Cochin backwaters is undergoing man-made shrinkage, at an alarming rate and a rough estimate of similar plans in the future shows that by the turn ... -
