Assessment of MV Wakashio oil spill off Mauritius, Indian Ocean through satellite imagery: A case study
Rao, V.T.; Suneel, V.; Alex, M.J.; Gurumoorthi, K.; Antony, P.T. (Springer, 2022)Accidental oil spills in the near-shore regions create severe impacts on coastal environments. The bulk carrier MV Wakashio ran aground off Southeastern Mauritius (SEM) on 25 July 2020, resulting in ~1000 tons of oil ... -
Environmental influence on the picophytoplankton community structure in the central and northern Bay of Bengal
Mitbavkar, S.; Anil, A.C.; Narale, D.D.; Chitari, R.; Rao, V.T.; Gopalakrishna, V.V. (Elsevier, 2020)The Bay of Bengal (BoB) is a low productive, oligotrophic ecosystem. The picophytoplankton (Pico; < 3mu m) play a significant role in the biogeochemistry of such ecosystems. The information on the Pico is exiguous from ... -
Fate of MV Wakashio oil spill off Mauritius coast through modelling and remote sensing observations
Gurumoorthi, K.; Suneel, V.; Rao, V.T.; Antony, P.T.; Alex, M.J. (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.
