Internal waves over the shelf in the western Bay of Bengal: A case study
(Springer, 2017)
Generation and propagation of internal waves (IWs) in the coastal waters of the extended shelf of the western Bay of Bengal are investigated for late winter by using the Massachusetts Institute of Technology General ...
Salinity stratification controlled productivity variation over 300 ky in the Bay of Bengal
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017)
The unique hydrographic setting of the Bay of Bengal (BoB) makes it an ideal tropical marine system to study the influence of regional and global forcings on productivity and [CO2aq] through the late quaternary. Enormous ...
Effects of benzo(k)fluoranthene, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon on DNA damage, lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress in marine gastropod Morula granulata
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
Benzo(k)fluoranthene [B(k)F] is one of the widespread priority pollutants of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that has been scarcely studied for exposure assessment. With studies reporting a high amount B(k)F in sediments ...
Variability in the phytoplankton community of Kavaratti reef ecosystem (northern Indian Ocean) during peak and waning periods of El Ni�o 2016
(Springer, 2017)
El Ni�o, an interannual climate event characterized by elevated oceanic temperature, is a prime threat for coral reef ecosystems worldwide, owing to their thermal threshold sensitivity. Phytoplankton plays a crucial role ...
Dynamics of sea-ice biogeochemistry in the coastal Antarctica during transition from summer to winter
(Elsevier, 2017)
The seasonality of carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO<sub>2</sub>), air-sea CO<sub>2</sub> fluxes and associated environmental parameters were investigated in the Antarctic coastal waters. The in-situ survey was carried ...
Mycosphere Essays 19: Recent advances and future challenges in taxonomy of coelomycetous fungi
(Guizhou Key Laboratory of Agricultural Biotechnology, China, 2017)
The application of molecular phylogenetic methods has provided a better understanding of the taxonomy and evolution of coelomycetous fungi. Providing taxonomic placements for orphan genera, re-visiting historic genera, ...
Phosphorus accumulation associated with intense diagenetic metal-oxide cycling in sediments along the eastern continental margin of India
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2017)
Sequential phosphorus extractions were carried out to understand phosphorus cycling and enrichment in surface sediments along the eastern continental margin of India. Phosphorus associated with authigenic (Paut) and biogenic ...
ELISA detection of vitellogenin in the haemolymph of Penaeus monodon (Fabricius, 1798) (Caridea: Penaeidae): indirect indicator of female maturity
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Developing a non-lethal method for analysis of female reproductive maturity will be more accurate and less invasive than assessing maturity through gonad biopsy. Quantification of the expression levels of vitellogenin (Vg) ...
Biological responses to disturbance from simulated deep-sea polymetallic nodule mining
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
Commercial-scale mining for polymetallic nodules could have a major impact on the deep-sea environment, but the effects of these mining activities on deep-sea ecosystems are very poorly known. The first commercial test ...
Positive Indian ocean dipole events prevent anoxia off the west coast of India
(European Geosciences Union, 2017)
The seasonal upwelling along the west coast of India (WCI) brings nutrient-rich, oxygen-poor subsurface waters to the continental shelf, favoring very low oxygen concentrations in the surface waters during late boreal ...
