Ghogha: An Indo-Arabian Trading Post in the Gulf of Khambhat (Cambay), India
(The Nautical Archaeology Society, 2010)
The ancient port of Ghogha is situated on the western bank of the Gulf of Khambhat, which has the highest tidal range in India, and the remains of the oldest civilization. Recent marine archaeological explorations in this ...
Oscillating environmental responses of the eastern Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Characteristics of two distinct physical processes, the coastal upwelling and convective overturning, which enhance phytoplankton productivity in the west coast of India, are discussed in this study. Systematic in-situ ...
Estuaries of India: Making amends in a changing world
(ENVIS publisher, 2013)
This short write up descibes the importance of estuarine ecosystems and the need to save it from the ill effects of anthropogenic factors. The issues like pollution caused by chemicals and overfishing are discussed in brief.
Organic carbon in Antarctic snow: spatial trends and possible sources
(American Chemical Society, 2011)
Organic carbon records in Antarctic snow are sparse despite the fact that it is of great significance to global carbon dynamics, snow photochemistry, and air–snow exchange processes. Here, surface snow total organic carbon ...
Molecular diversity of fungi from marine oxygen-deficient environments (ODEs)
(Springer, 2012)
Molecular diversity surveys of marine fungi have demonstrated that the species richness known to date is just the tip of the iceberg and that there is a large exent of unknown fungal diversity in marine habitats. Reports ...
Aerosol optical thickness and spatial variability along coastal and offshore waters of the eastern Arabian Sea
(Oxford, 2011)
Data from the ocean-colour monitor (OCM) on board the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite P4 were used to analyse the spatial and temporal distribution of aerosol optical thickness (AOT) over the coastal and offshore waters ...
Quantitative distribution of meiobenthos in the Gulf of Martaban, Myanmar Coast, north-east Andaman Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Quantitative distribution of meiofauna in the depth range 20 to 1000 m of the Gulf of Martaban, Andaman Sea was studied from 46 stations during a synaptic survey carried out in April-May 2002 of ORV Sagar Kanya Cruise SK175 ...
Stochastic formalism-based seafloor feature discrimination using multifractality of time-dependent acoustic backscatter
(European Geosciences Union, 2014)
Dual-frequency echo-envelope data acquired using the normal-incidence single-beam echosounder system (SBES) have been examined to study its scale invariant properties. The scaling and multifractality of the SBES echo ...
Phylogeny and genetic variation within population of Tachypleus gigas (M�ller, 1785)
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2017)
Isolated population of Indian horseshoe crabs, Tachy-pleus gigas plays an important role in the ecology of several marine organisms, and is being scrutinized for its abundance and morphology by many researchers. However, ...
Oxygen isotopic composition of relict olivine grains in cosmic spherules: Links to chondrules from carbonaceous chondrites
(Elsevier, 2015)
Most olivine relict grains in cosmic spherules selected for the present study are pristine and have not been disturbed during their atmospheric entry, thereby preserving their chemical, mineralogical and isotopic compositions. ...
