Dynamics of nitrous oxide and methane in the southeastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2024)This study examined the factors controlling the intra- and inter-seasonal variations of dissolved methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) in the southeastern Arabian Sea (SEAS). Time-series measurements of CH4, N2O and allied ... -
Microplastics in the sediments along the eastern Arabian Sea shelf: Distribution, governing factors and risk assessment
(Elsevier, 2024)Despite the omnipresence of microplastics (MPs), the studies around the western continental shelf of Indian Ocean (Eastern Arabian Sea-EAS) are uncovered and understudied. Thus, the present study was focused to understand ... -
Impact of southern annular mode on the Indian Ocean surface waves
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2023)Interannual climate modes, especially the southern annular mode (SAM), significantly influence the wave climate modulation of the Indian Ocean (IO). The present study, aligned with previous research, identifies two crucial ... -
Land subsidence studies in the Godavari Delta regions of the East coast of India using ALOS and Sentinel 1 data
(Elsevier, 2023)Subsidence in coastal deltas is a challenging issue globally, influenced by both climate and anthropogenic pressures. Owing to its rich economic value, the Godavari Delta on the east coast of India attracts the human ... -
Isotopic composition of carbon and nitrogen of particulate organic matter in the Godavari estuary: Seasonality in sources and processes
(Springer, 2024)Rivers transport organic matter originating within the estuary and terrestrial sources to the coastal ocean. The seasonal variations in the magnitude of river discharge alter the sources of particulate organic matter (POM) ... -
Efficacy of amorphous TiOx-coated surfaces against micro- and macrofouling through laboratory microcosms and field studies
(Taylor & Francis, 2023)In this study, Soda Lime Glass (SLG) and Stainless Steel (SS316L) substrata coated with Titanium oxide (TiOx) were tested for their efficacy in the laboratory microcosms and in field against micro- and macrofouling. ... -
New find of Dactylophrya-stage of parasitic suctorian of genus Tachyblaston Martin, 1909 (Ciliophora, Suctorea) with comments on genus taxonomy
(Magnolia Press, 2023)The article presents the new find of Dactylophrya-stage of rare parasitic suctorian ciliate of genus Tachyblaston on harpacticoid copepod from Mumbai, India. The found specimen was identified as Tachyblaston reversum ... -
Complete genome sequence analysis of multi-drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae THK strain isolated from aquaculture farm in Kerala, India
(Springer, 2023)The emergence of microorganisms with resistance toward antibiotics has been widely recognized as a growing hazard to public health. Here, we report the whole genome sequence of Klebsiella pneumoniae strain THK, which was ... -
Control of source-to-sink processes on the dispersal, fractionation, and deposition of magnetic minerals in a tropical mesotidal estuarine system
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2023)This study aims to elucidate the control of source-to-sink processes on the sediment dynamics of a complex mesotidal tropical estuarine system using rock magnetic, sedimentological, mineralogical, and geochemical methods. ... -
Plastic bio-mitigation by Pseudomonas mendocina ABF786 and simultaneous conversion of its CO2 byproduct to microalgal biodiesel
(Elsevier, 2024)Bio-mitigation of plastics by microorganisms generates carbon dioxide (CO2) that can be utilized for algal biomass generation. Pseudomonas mendocina ABF786, reportedly the most efficient plastic-degrading bacteria, was ... -
Trait-based classification and environmental drivers of phytoplankton functional structure from anthropogenically altered tropical creek, Thane Creek India
(Elsevier, 2024)The present study on variability in phytoplankton functional structure through a trait-based approach described the species-trait-environmental relationship and its possible impact on ecosystem functioning. Based on trait ... -
Facultative association of Purpura panama with Bunodosoma goanense
(Springer, 2023)This paper reports observations of an association between a marine snail and a sea anemone, conducted monthly during low spring tide from June 2021 to March 2023. The multifaceted benefits of the association between Purpura ... -
Toxigenic Escherichia coli with high antibiotic resistance index recovered from sands of recreational beaches of Mumbai, India
(Elsevier, 2024)Mumbai, India's seven-island city, is known for its sandy beaches as a major tourist attraction, but urbanization and industrialization have weakened the environment. Unregulated sewage disposal and untreated effluents off ... -
Geochemical dichotomy of Tethyan oceanic mantle and the supercontinent connection: Insights from Os isotopic signatures of mantle peridotites from Naga Hills ophiolite
(Elsevier, 2024)Naga Hills Ophiolite (NHO) represents a thrusted section of relict Neo-Tethyan oceanic lithosphere comprising distinct crustal and upper mantle lithologies that preserve imprints of different stages of evolution of ancient ... -
Historical aspects and traditional knowledge of Hilsa (Indian shad) in Odisha, east coast of India

Latent heat flux variability over the tropical Indian Ocean
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2023)The seasonal evolution and interannual variability of latent heat flux (LHF) over the tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) region is examined for the period 1980–2019. The seasonal distribution of LHF is dominated by the winter ... -
Large shift in the upper water column characteristics of the west-central Bay of Bengal during the last glacial-interglacial transition
(Elsevier, 2024)The upper water column structure in the Bay of Bengal is strongly influenced by the monsoon and associated processes. However, the records of variation in water column stratification during different monsoon phases, are ... -
Distribution and sources of fatty acids in surface sediments of mangrove ecosystems in the Northern Kerala Coast, India
