Nitrate reducing activity pervades surface waters during upwelling.
(Elsevier, 2014)
Nitrate reducing activity (NRA) is known to be mediated by microaerophilic to anaerobic bacteria and generally occurs in the sub-surface waters. However, we hypothesize that NRA could become prominent in the surface waters ...
Evaluation of surface water and sediment quality in Chicalim Bay, Nerul Creek, and Chapora Bay from Goa coast, India - a statistical approach
(Springer, 2016)
To better understand the spatial and temporal variation in surface water and sediment quality, parameters were evaluated from the three sites Chicalim Bay (CB), Nerul Creek (NC), and Chapora Bay (ChB) along the Goa coast, ...
Changes in the soft-bottom macrobenthic diversity and community structure from the ports of Mumbai, India
(Springer, 2013)
Soft-bottom macrobenthic diversity and community structure were assessed at Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru ports during three different periods between 2001 and 2002 (November 2001 post-monsoon 1, April/May 2002 pre-monsoon, ...
Numerical simulations of barnacle larval dispersion coupled with field observations on larval abundance, settlement and recruitment in a tropical monsoon influenced coastal marine environment
(Elsevier, 2012)
Observations were carried out to monitor the larval abundance, settlement and recruitment of barnacles on a regular basis for a period of two years. The results were then compared with the numerical modelling studies carried ...
Iridium(III) and Rhodium(III) compounds of dipyridyl-N-alkylimine and dipyridyl-NH-ketimine: Spectral characterization and crystal structure
(Springer India, 2017)
Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl iridium(III) and rhodium(III) complexes of formulation [( 5-C 5Me 5)M{(C 5 H 4N) 2 C=NR)}Cl]PF 6 were prepared by the reaction of [MCl 2( 5-C 5Me 5)] 2(M = Ir or Rh) with dipyridyl-N-alkylimine ...
Marine Robots : Applications in Marine Archaeology
(Agam Kala Prakashan, New Delhi, 2015)
This article explains how underwater robots have the potential to become companions (buddies) to divers, effectively assisting them by carrying tools and instrumentation and taking high resolution images under the commands ...
Seabed resident event driven profiling system (SREP). Concept, design and tests
(IEEE, 2016)
The seabed resident event driven profiling system (SREP) described here offers a novel, optimized approach to profiling in coastal waters from seabed to sea surface during the rough seas encountered in the southwest monsoon ...
Use of marine robot`MAYA` for monitoring the Zuari and Mandovi esturine systems
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 2015)
Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASVs) are gaining popularity among oceanographic, meteorological and defense research organizations (Motwani, 2012). The Autonomous Underwater Vehicle, MAYA designed and built at CSIR-NIO (Desa, ...
Glacial-interglacial contrasts revealed by n-alkanes in sediments of the Equatorial Indian Ocean during the last 300,000 years
(Elsevier, 2017)
A sediment core aged up to 300 kyr from the Equatorial Indian Ocean (EIO) was examined for its inorganic and organic geochemistry, the objective being to identify coherent markers of glacial-interglacial changes and ...
Shivajiella indica gen. nov., sp. nov., a marine bacterium of the family "Cyclobacteriaceae" with nitrate reducing activity
(Elsevier, 2012)
Novel orange pigmented, Gram-negative-staining, rod-shaped, non-motile, strictly aerobic strains designated NIO-S1 sup(T) and NIO-S2 were isolated from the water sample of a pond adjacent to the coast and an algal mat from ...
