Determining chlorophyll-a thresholds for characterizing algal bloom conditions: An ocean colour remote sensing approach
(Elsevier, 2025)The Indian coast has been experiencing an increase in algal bloom events over the decades. Owing to the regional and seasonal dynamics of algal biomass (proxy: chlorophyll-a, hereafter chl-a), a multitude of thresholds of ... -
Microstructures along the Indian west-coast continental shelf: layering and vertical mixing
(Elsevier, 2025)During the month of October, the West Indian Coastal Current (WICC) is in a stage of transition from equatorward to poleward flow. The sea surface salinity near the Indian Coast is lower in the south compared to the north. ... -
Reduced bottom water oxygenation in the northern Indian Ocean during the Last Glacial Maximum
(Elsevier, 2025)Reconstructing variations in the past bottom water oxygenation of the oceans is crucial for understanding the current global ocean deoxygenation and increased respired carbon storage. Changes in the deep water circulation ... -
Characterization of fatty acid composition of healthy and diseased coral mucus released from host and/or endosymbiont for their possible role in coral health
(Springer, 2024)Coral mucus serves as a barrier, protecting corals from a variety of biotic and abiotic stresses. Coral mucus contains all essential nutrients including carbohydrates, amino acids and fatty acids (FA). Although fatty acids, ... -
Unveiling the chromate stress response in the marine bacterium Bacillus enclensis AGM_Cr8: a multifaceted investigation
(Springer, 2024)In this study, we introduce Bacillus enclensis AGM_Cr8, a gram-positive marine bacterium isolated from the chronically polluted Versova Creek in Mumbai, India. AGM_Cr8 exhibits robust tolerance to chromate stress, thriving ... -
Spatial Variability of Dissolved Cobalt in the Indian Ocean Waters: Contrasting Behavior in the Arabian Sea, the Bay of Bengal and the Southern Sector of the Indian Ocean
(Wiley Online Library, 2024)The present study explored the dynamics of total dissolved Cobalt (dCo) in the Indian Ocean, revealing different distribution patterns in the different sub-basins, nutrient-type in the southern sector, hybrid-type in the ... -
Variabilities in the estimate of 100-year return period wave height in the Indian shelf seas
(Springer, 2024)Exploring the variability in design wave heights through extreme value analysis is crucial for understanding extreme oceanographic conditions and is paramount for the safe design and operation of offshore structures. This ... -
Production of quality biomass of Gelidium micropterum K tzing through optimization of nutrients and salinity for sustainable land-based cultivation
(Springer, 2024)In this study, the seeding density (w/v), Provasoli Enriched Seawater (PES) medium strength, and salinity of the culture medium were optimized to obtain higher growth rates and superior biomass quality of Gelidium micropterum ... -
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in surface sediments of the western Bay of Bengal: Distribution, sources, and ecological risk assessment
(Elsevier, 2024)This study investigated the distribution, sources, and ecological risk of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the surface sediments of the Western Bay of Bengal (WBoB). Coastal, shelf and slope sediments from the ... -
Substantial invasion of Antarctic Intermediate Water into the Arabian Sea during Younger Dryas and Heinrich Stadials
(Elsevier, 2024)Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) is an important component of the global thermohaline circulation and an essential limb of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which redistributes heat, oxygen, and ... -
Wave energy potential along the Indian coast: A comprehensive review
(Elsevier, 2024)Wave energy is rapidly emerging as a promising and innovative solution among the various renewable energy sources. Given India's extensive coastline, including islands, research on wave energy is essential to harness this ... -
An evaluation of glass beads from the southwestern coastal state of Goa, India, as a potential pollutant in marine ecosystem
(Springer, 2024)Glass beads laid on the road, mainly used for better visibility, can contribute to harmful anthropogenic waste to the marine environment, and it is a prerequisite to distinguish the chemical properties associated with it. ... -
Application of functional metagenomics in the evaluation of microbial community dynamics in the Arabian Sea: Implications of environmental settings,
(Elsevier, 2024)Ocean microbial communities form the base of marine food webs, facilitating energy transfer and nutrient cycling, thereby supporting higher trophic levels. We investigated their composition and functional profiles across ... -
Mass Balance Assessment Using the AARTI Approach in the Baspa Basin, Indian Himalayas
(Springer, 2024)Snow cover and glaciers are the major sources of freshwater from the Polar Regions, Antarctica, Himalaya and the Arctic. Melt from these glacial components forms the supply of water to the downstream communities for various ... -
Assessment of transboundary macro-litter on the remote island of Andaman and Nicobar: Unveiling the governing factors and risk assessment
(Elsevier, 2024)The increasing occurrence of mismanaged plastic litter along India's coastline and the ominous challenges it poses to biodiversity and ecosystem health is a growing environmental concern. To address this issue, we ... -
Dissolved and suspended nutrient complexity in an urbanized creek-estuary confluence: Implication on water quality alteration
(Elsevier, 2024)The Thane Creek-Ulhas estuary confluence region acts as a naturally active infiltration system, crucial for altering water quality in the area and Arabian Sea. Particle-water exchange, hydrodynamics, and anthropogenic ... -
Ecophysiological status of copepods in the oxygen minimum zone of Eastern Arabian Sea
