Anisotropic amplitude variation of the bottom-simulating reflector beneath fracture-filled gas hydrate deposit
(American Geophysical Union, 2013)
For the first time, we report the amplitude variation with angle (AVA) pattern of bottom-simulating reflectors (BSRs) beneath fracture-filled gas hydrate deposits when the effective medium is anisotropic. The common depth ...
First record of the freshwater puffer Tetraodon fluviatilis fluviatilis from the coastal waters of Goa, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2013)
Present study describes a new record of the freshwater green spotted puffer Tetraodon fluviatilis fluviatilis based on detailed examination of four specimens collected from the bay-estuarine regions of Goa. Differences ...
Efficacy of sodium bicarbonate as anaesthetic for yellow seahorse, Hippocampus kuda (Bleeker, 1852)
(Universal Research Publications, 2013)
In the present investigation anesthetic efficacy of sodium bicarbonate on yellow seahorse Hippocampus kuda was studied. Captive bred two years old (163.2±10.2 mm height and 12.22±1.94 g weight) yellow seahorses were exposed ...
Sub-tidal water-level oscillations in the Mandovi estuary, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2013)
Using water-level data collected at six locations during March–April 2003 in the main channel of the Mandovi estuary, one of the 50 odd estuaries on the west coast of India, we describe the nature of variability of water ...
Assessing the distribution and abundance of seabed minerals from seafloor photographic data in the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)
Distribution characteristics of deep-sea mineral resources such as polymetallic nodules and ferromanganese crusts are often influenced by local seafloor features such as the topographic undulations and sediment thickness. ...
Contribution of N<sub>2</sub>O emissions to the atmosphere from Indian monsoonal estuaries
(International Meteorological Institute, 2013)
Estuaries are known to contribute a significant amount of nitrous oxide (N<sub>2</sub>O) to the atmosphere; however, the contribution from the Indian estuaries is unknown. We made an attempt to estimate emissions of ...
Surface Ocean CO<sub>2</sub> Atlas (SOCAT) gridded data products
(Copernicus Publications, 2013)
As a response to public demand for a well-documented, quality controlled, publically available, global surface ocean carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) data set, the international marine carbon science community developed the ...
First description of a cyanophage infecting the cyanobacterium Arthrospira platensis (Spirulina)
(Springer, 2013)
Cyanobacteria constitute a versatile group of photosynthetic bacteria of immense commercial and ecological importance. Some species of this group are cultivated and sold as food because of their high nutritional value. ...
Flavobacterium nitratireducens sp. nov., an amylolytic bacterium of the family Flavobacteriaceae isolated from coastal surface seawater
(International Union of Microbiological Societies, 2013)
A novel Gram-negative, rod-shaped, non-motile bacterium, designated strain N1 sup(T), was isolated from a marine water sample collected from the sea shore, Bay of Bengal, Visakhapatnam, India. The strain was positive for ...
Diagenesis of magnetic minerals in a gas hydrate/cold seep environment off the Krishna-Godavari basin, Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2013)
Detailed magnetic measurements of the core (MD161/8) located in the vicinity of Site NGHP-01-10 was carried out, where approx. 128 m of hydrate is confirmed by drilling/coring, to understand the diagenesis of magnetic ...
