Metabolic regulatory oscillations in intertidal green seaweed Ulva lactuca against tidal cycles
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
The survival of wetland plant species largely relies on physiological adaptations essential for submergence and desiccation. Intertidal seaweeds, unlike terrestrial plants, have unique adaptations to submergence and can ...
Description of two new apseudomorphan Tanaidacea (Crustacea: Malacostraca: Peracarida) from the Kochi Backwaters, India
(Station Biologique de Roscoff, 2017)
Two new species of apseudomorphan tanaidaceans, Pagurapseudopsis kochindica and Ctenapseudes indiana are described as new to science. Specimens used in this study are based on an extensive sampling (79 locations) in the ...

(Springer, 2017)
Malvan coast is one of the Marine Protected Area (MPA) of Maharashtra because of its rich coral reef and biodiversity. The study investigated on phytoplankton assemblage and their diversity with respect to physico-chemical ...
Development of environmental management plan for deep-sea mining
(Springer, 2017)
Deep-sea mining is currently at a stage when several mine sites have been identified, mining technologies are under development, processing technologies are being tested, studies for assessing potential environmental impacts ...
Quick elucidation of cyclodepsipeptide sequence from sacoglossan Elysia grandifolia using electrospray ionisation-tandem mass spectrometry
(Sage Publications, 2017)
Butanol fraction of sacoglossan Elysia grandifolia was investigated for identifying peptides using electrospray ionisation-tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS). Without prior isolation, the structural determination is ...
Observational insights into chlorophyll distributions of subtropical South Indian Ocean eddies
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017)
The South Indian Ocean subtropical gyre has been described as a unique environment where anticyclonic ocean eddies highlight enhanced surface chlorophyll in winter. The processes responsible for this chlorophyll increase ...

During recent archaeological explorations at Old Goa, west coast of India, twenty three Chinese porcelain shards of the Ming (Middle to late 16th century), Qing (17th century) and late Qing period (late 17th century) have ...
An integrated approach to study the biomarker responses in marine gastropod Nerita chamaeleon environmentally exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(ISJ, 2017)
Ecological risk assessment using multiple biomarkers produce a large amount of data that is hard to interpret and the result are often contradictory. In this context, Integrated Biomarker Response (IBR) index was used to ...
