Crustal architecture and rift tectonics across the Visakhapatnam Bay basin, central-east Indian margin: Insights from multichannel seismic and potential field data
(2019)The Visakhapatnam Bay (VB) basin is a passive margin rift basin located at the non-basinal segment of the Eastern Continental Margin of India (ECMI) and formed during the rift-drift events associated with the breakup of ... -
Dinoflagellate planktonic-motile-stage and benthic-cyst assemblages from a monsoon-influenced tropical harbour: Elucidating the role of environmental conditions
(2019)Dinoflagellates are referred among potential bioinvaders and environmental proxies. Information from tropical regions on the coupling of cyst and motile stages of dinoflagellates characterized by high suspended-load, and ... -
Large-Scale Fresh and Salt Water Exchanges in the Indian Ocean
(2019)Upper-ocean dynamics in the Northern Indian Ocean (NIO) depend on changes in the magnitude and location of the high salinity waters of the Arabian Sea and low salinity waters of the Bay of Bengal. The large sea surface ... -
Seasonal spreading and transport of buoyant plumes in the shelf off Kochi, South west coast of India- A modeling approach
(2019)We investigated the seasonal spreading and transport of buoyant plume in the shelf off Kochi using Finite Volume Community Ocean Model (FVCOM). The modelled river plume typically consisted of an offshore bulge and a coastal ... -
Prokaryotic Diversity in Oxygen Depleted Waters of the Bay of Bengal Inferred Using Culture-Dependent and -Independent Methods
(2019)There are regions in the world oceans where oxygen saturation is at its lowest, evident at depths between shelf to upper bathyal zone. These regions are known as Oxygen Minimum Zones (OMZs), which reportedly support ... -
New record of Loricophyra stresemanni (Ciliophora: Suctorea) as epibiont on nematodes from the Indian Ocean and notes on the genus Loricophrya
(2019)The article is dedicated to the re-discovery of suctorian ciliate Loricophrya stresemanni found on nematodes from Miramar bay (Arabian Sea), Goa, west coast of India. The morphological characterizations of collected ciliate ... -
Carbon Dioxide Sequestering Ability of Bacterial Carbonic Anhydrase in a Mangrove Soil Microcosm and Its Bio-mineralization Properties
(2019)In this study, we attempt to prospect potential bacterial isolates from mangrove sediments of Mangalavanam, Kerala, India, with positive carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity to sequester carbon dioxide by calcium precipitation ... -
Spatial distribution of gas hydrate deposits in Krishna-Godavari offshore basin, Bay of Bengal
(2019)To delineate the occurrences of gas hydrates and free gas in the Krishna-Godavari (KG) basin, Bay of Bengal, we used 3D seismic data to construct a velocity model of high spatial density. We used an automated version of ... -
Aragonite pteropod abundance and preservation records from the Maldives, equatorial Indian Ocean: Inferences on past oceanic carbonate saturation and dissolution events
(2019)During the International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 359, a long continuous carbonate-rich sequence was recovered from the Inner Sea of Maldives. We investigated pteropod proxies (absolute abundance of pteropods ... -
A sustained ocean observing system in the indian ocean for climate related scientific knowledge and societal needs
(2019)The Indian Ocean is warming faster than any of the global oceans and its climate is uniquely driven by the presence of a landmass at low latitudes, which causes monsoonal winds and reversing currents. The food, water, and ... -
Crustal architecture and moho topography beneath the Eastern Indian and bangladesh margins - New insights on rift evolution and the continent-ocean boundary
(2019)The thick sedimentary cover (?18 km) along the Eastern Continental Margin of India (ECMI) and over the Bay of Bengal has hindered understanding of the mechanisms of rifting that operated on the eastern Indian and Bangladesh ... -
Large-scale mass wasting on the Miocene continental margin of western India
(2019)A giant mass-transport complex was recently discovered in the eastern Arabian Sea, exceeding in volume all but one other known complex on passive margins worldwide. The complex, named the Nataraja Slide, was drilled by ... -
Natural decadal sea-level variability in the Indian Ocean: lessons from CMIP models
(2019)Indian Ocean decadal sea-level variability is an active research area, with many unresolved questions due to inadequate observational coverage. In this study, we analyse 26 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP) ... -
Assessment of phytoplankton photo-physiological status from a tropical monsoonal estuary
(2019)Assessment of phytoplankton physiological responses to abiotic changes provides valuable insights into the health of an ecosystem. The variable fluorescence (F v = F m -F 0 ), photosynthetic efficiency (F v /F m ), and ... -
Phycoremediation of Hazardous Mixed Industrial Effluent by a Marine Strain of Phormidium sp
(2019)The potential of the marine microalgal isolate Phormidium sp. to detoxify/reduce various pollutants from a highly hazardous mixed industrial effluent (MIE) is evaluated. The microalgae are grown in the MIE at 30% (v/v%) ... -
Assessing the source of oil deposited in the surface sediment of Mormugao Port, Goa - A case study of MV Qing incident
(2019)In June 2016, a cruise vessel was grounded in the Mormugao Port, resulting in unnoticed oil spill. The surface water and sediment samples were collected from the vicinity of the ship, and also an oil sample from the ship ... -
2015-16 ENSO contributed reduction in oil sardines along the Kerala coast, south?west India
(2019)Fishery along the west coast of India largely depends on pelagic fish such as oil sardines, which are dominant during the south?west monsoon. However, the response of sardine population to the warming caused by the climatic ... -
Recent changes in the prominent modes of Indian Ocean dipole in response to the tropical Pacific Ocean SST patterns
(2019)The present study examines the prominent patterns of Indian Ocean dipole (IOD) associated with the recent changes in the Pacific Ocean variability centered around 1998. EOF analysis of boreal fall (September through November ... -
