Latitudinal environmental gradients and diel variability influence abundance and community structure of Chaetognatha in Red Sea coral reefs
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
The Red Sea has been recognized as a unique region to study the effects of ecohydrographic gradients at a basin-wide scale. Its gradient of temperature and salinity relates to the Indian Ocean monsoon and associated ...
Differential growth forms of the sponge Biemna fortis govern the abundance of its associated brittle star Ophiactis modesta
(Elsevier, 2017)
Marine intertidal regions are physically stressful habitats. In such an environment, facilitator species and positive interactions mitigate unfavorable conditions to the benefit of less tolerant organisms. In sponge-brittle ...
Physiological responses of coastal phytoplankton (Visakhapatnam, SW Bay of Bengal, India) to experimental copper addition
(Elsevier, 2017)
Trace amount of copper (Cu) is essential for many physiological processes; however, it can be potentially toxic at elevated levels. The impact of variable Cu concentrations on a coastal phytoplankton community was investigated ...
Does Glacial-Interglacial Transition Affect Sediment Accumulation in Monsoon-Dominated Regions?
(Wiley, 2017)
The spatio?temporal changes in sedimentation rate along the continental margin of the monsoon?dominated eastern Arabian Sea during the last 24 kyr have been estimated from a compilation of 58 radiocarbon dated cores, in ...
Decolorization of Congo red mediated by marine Alcaligenes species isolated from Indian West coast sediments
(Springer, 2017)
Alcaligenes species capable of degrading highly recalcitrant, carcinogenic, water-soluble dye-Congo red-were isolated from Indian West coastal sediments. Individual strains showed decolorization rates ranging from 76.49 ...
Morphology and chemical composition of ash layer of about 8 Ma old from ODP-758 site, Bay of Bengal
(CSIR, India, 2017)
Glass shards from an ash layer of about 8 Ma old extracted from a core drilled at an ODP-758 site in the Bay of Bengal (BOB) were studied for morphology and chemical composition in order to trace their possible source. ...
Can the Drought/Flood Monsoon Conditions over the Indian subcontinent be forecasted using Artificial Neural Networks?
(CSIR, India, 2017)
The Indian summer monsoon rainfall during the months June, July, August and September (JJAS) has been classified into seven climatic zones, according to standard precipitation index. Prediction of rainfall within the six ...
Robust particle filter formulations with application to terrain-aided navigation
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017)
The work described in this paper is motivated by the need to develop efficient and robust estimation filters with application to terrainaided navigation of underwater robotic vehicles. One of the main problems addressed ...
Robust Projected Weakening of Winter Monsoon Winds Over the Arabian Sea Under Climate Change
(Wiley, 2017)
The response of the Indian winter monsoon to climate change has received considerably less attention than that of the summer monsoon. We show here that all Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) models display ...
Elucidation of the tidal influence on bacterial populations in a monsoon influenced estuary through simultaneous observations
(Springer, 2017)
The influence of tides on bacterial populations in a monsoon influenced tropical estuary was assessed through fine resolution sampling (1 to 3 h) during spring and neap tides from mouth to the freshwater end at four stations ...
