Variability of biochemical compounds in surface sediments along the eastern margin of the Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2023)Different fractions of organic matter in surface sediments from three transects along the eastern margin of the Arabian Sea (AS) were quantified to determine the sources of organic matter, and also to study its impact on ... -
Aerosol distribution during spring and summer and its relationship with Inter-Annual variability of summer monsoon rainfall over Indian region
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)The inter-annual variability of aerosol over Indian region and its possible implications on the Indian summer monsoon is investigated using Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) data from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer ... -
Synthesis of Bimetallic BiPO4/ZnO Nanocomposite: Enhanced Photocatalytic Dye Degradation and Antibacterial Applications
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)Multidrug-resistant strains (MDRs) are becoming a major concern in a variety of settings, including water treatment and the medical industry. Well-dispersed catalysts such as BiPO4, ZnO nanoparticles (NPs), and different ... -
Chemical characterisation of fine aerosols in a smart city on the east coast of India: Seasonal variability and its impact on visibility impairment
(Springer, 2023)This study investigates the seasonal variation of PM (PM2.5 and PM10) over Bhubaneswar (20.3oN, 85.827oE), a smart city on the eastern coast of India. PM2.5 and PM10 ranged from 11.1 to 154.2 �g.m?3 and 20.4-273.8 �g.m?3, ... -
Changes in the bacterial community in port waters during ship�s ballast water discharge
(Springer, 2023)Ballast water-mediated bioinvasion is a major threat to the health of aquatic ecosystems. Port environments are hotspots for marine bioinvasion due to ballast water uptake and discharge activities. As the first of its kind ... -
Characterization of phytoplankton functional groups in a tropical shellfish harvesting estuary (Ashtamudi) and adjacent nearshore waters (southwest coast of India)
(Springer, 2023)A pioneering study on phytoplankton marker pigments, by adopting the HPLC-CHEMTAX analytical approach, was carried out in one of the major shellfish harvesting estuaries (Ashtamudi estuary�AE) on the southwest coast of ... -
A coherent status of summer monsoon phytoplankton communities (2017-2018) along the Western Indian continental shelf: Implications for fisheries
(Elsevier, 2023)The western Indian continental shelf is characterized by contrasting biogeochemical features from south to north mostly governed by monsoon wind forcing. Here we present the first detailed study on the phytoplankton community ... -
Sediment dynamics of tropical open coast beaches, central west coast of India: implications of spatio-temporal variability
(Springer, 2023)Local and regional climatic pressures influence coastal geomorphic systems on different spatial and temporal scales. Within these zones of variation, systems and environmental processes interact. They can recreate sediment ... -
Genesis and preservation of authigenic magnetite and greigite in the cold seep sediments, Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2023)We report a new mechanism of authigenic greigite and magnetite formation and preservation in an anomalous �sulfide-rich� interval in the cold (methane) seep sediments from the Bay of Bengal. Rock magnetic proxies (SIRM/?lf, ... -
Distribution of organochlorine pesticides in surface and deep waters of the Southern Indian Ocean and coastal Antarctic waters
(Elsevier, 2023)Antarctica is a remote and pristine region. Yet it plays a vital role in biogeochemical cycles of global anthropogenic contaminants, such as persistent organic pollution (POPs). This work reports the distribution of legacy ... -
Redox Changes during the Past 100 ka in the Deeper Eastern Arabian Sea: A Study Based on Trace Elements and Multivariate Statistical Analysis
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)The temporal distribution of trace elements in a sediment core (SK117/GC-08) indicates minor changes in oxygenation during the last 100 kilo years in the bottom waters of the deeper eastern Arabian Sea. The high values of ... -
A global synthesis of high-resolution stable isotope data from benthic foraminifera of the last deglaciation
(Nature Publishing Group, 2023)We present the first version of the Ocean Circulation and Carbon Cycling (OC3) working group database, of oxygen and carbon stable isotope ratios from benthic foraminifera in deep ocean sediment cores from the Last Glacial ... -
Roles of upwelling and riverine influx on the summer phytoplankton bloom in the Western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2023)The Bay of Bengal (BoB) is generally considered a low-productive region. However, several phytoplankton blooms (high Chlorophyll a) are frequently reported, including the one observed between Kakinada (KKD) and Visakhapatnam ... -
Disruption of Staphylococcus aureus Biofilms with Purified Moringa oleifera Leaf Extract Protein
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2023)A major cause of economic losses in the medical implant sector has been bacterial biofilms due to their ability to persist on various surfaces and their tolerance against endogenous defences, antibiotics, or other ... -
Radiocarbon evidence for reduced deep water ventilation of the northern Indian Ocean during the last glacial maxima and early deglaciation
(Elsevier, 2023)Enhanced outgassing of sequestered carbon to the atmosphere by upwelling of deep water in the Southern Ocean during the last deglaciation is assumed to be the main factor that modulated changes in atmospheric CO2 and ... -
