Winter-time variability of the eastern Arabian Sea: A comparison between 2003 and 2013
(Wiley, 2017)
The eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) is a region of complex interplay between several spatially and temporally varying oceanographic processes. Using two sets of in situ data collected from the same stations, separated by a decade, ...
Tropical explosive volcanic eruptions can trigger El Ni�o by cooling tropical Africa
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
Stratospheric aerosols from large tropical explosive volcanic eruptions backscatter shortwave radiation and reduce the global mean surface temperature. Observations suggest that they also favour an El Ni�o within 2 years ...
Captive breeding and rearing of the yellow seahorse, Hippocampus kuda (Bleeker, 1852) in support of the marine ornamental fish industry and conservation
(CSIR, India, 2017)
H. kuda attained a maximum size of 138 mm (Ht) (mean 124.04�11.3 mm) and maximum weight of 7621 mg (mean 6904�1115.35 mg) during the culture period of six months. Overall, a survival rate of 76.28% was recorded during a ...
Temporal effect on the abundance and diversity of intertidal rocky shore macroalgae
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2017)
A study of the temporal effect on the abundance and diversity of intertidal rocky shore macroalgae re-vealed that there are ~70 species in the intertidal rocky shore of Anjuna (60 species) and Vagator (52 species) in Goa, ...
Bacillus mangrovi sp. nov., isolated from a sediment sample from a mangrove forest
(Microbiology Society, 2017)
A facultatively anaerobic, endospore forming, alkali-tolerant, Gram-stain-positive, motile, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain AK61T, was isolated from a sediment sample collected from Coringa mangrove forest, India. ...
Effect of pea crab Pinnotheres vicajii (Chhapgar, 1957) on immunocompetence of bivalve Paphia malabarica (Chemnitz, 1782)
(Elsevier, 2017)
The endosymbiont-host relationship between a pea crab and its bivalve host has been studied previously using bivalve�s multi-physiological parameters. The present study is first of its kind that uses hemocyte�s immune ...
Exposure of Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms to salt water and its implications
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2017)
In this article, we discuss the effect of salinity on the viability and decomposition of Eichhornia crassipes plant under normal photoperiod, dark condition and physiological response. Highest concentration of total organic ...
S- and Sr-isotopic compositions in barite-silica chimney from the Franklin Seamount, Woodlark Basin, Papua New Guinea: constraints on genesis and temporal variability of hydrothermal fluid
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2017)
Isotopic ratios of strontium and sulfur in six layers across a horizontal section of a hydrothermal barite-silica chimney from Franklin Seamount of western Woodlark Basin have been investigated. Sr-isotopic ratios in barite ...
Textural characteristics and morphosedimentary environment of foreshore zone along Ganpatipule, Maharashtra, India
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
The cross-shore profile and the textural distribution of foreshore sediments of Ganpatipule beach along Maharashtra coast covering two annual cycles are examined. Ganpatipule beach depicts erosion and accretion of the berm, ...
