Geochemistry of the Neoarchean Dodguni carbonates of Chitradurga greenstone belt, Dharwar Craton, India: Implications on depositional environment
(Wiley, 2023)The carbonates of the Dodguni area of the Chitradurga greenstone belt, Dharwar Craton, India were studied to understand the Archean diagenetic and palaeo-depositional conditions using carbon and oxygen isotopes along with ... -
Augmented coral reef monitoring using a stationary reef monitoring system
(Elsevier, 2023)Coral reef monitoring is a reliable tool to assess the effect of climate change as corals are sensitive to increases in water temperatures between 30 �C and 35 �C resulting in bleaching - a whitening process when the corals ... -
Exceptionally high foraminiferal dissolution in the western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2022)The planktic foraminifera are an important component of the global carbon cycle, as they sequester the carbon, thus burying it in the sediments for ages.The burial of planktic foraminiferal shells, however, depends on the ... -
Marine algae colorants: Antioxidant, anti-diabetic properties and applications in food industry
(Elsevier, 2023)In numerous food businesses, natural pigments are frequently utilized as food colorants.Colorants give nutritional value to food items in addition to improving its appeal, acceptability and flavour.Consumers have a tendency ... -
The Influence of Photodynamic Antimicrobial Chemotherapy on the Microbiome, Neuroendocrine and Immune System of Crustacean Post Larvae
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)Photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT), employing a combination of light and natural photosensitizer molecules such as curcumin, has been accepted as a safe modality for removing aquatic pathogens which cause ... -
Investigation of Secondary Metabolites from Marine-Derived Fungi Aspergillus
(Wiley, 2022)Marine fungi Aspergillus flavipes and A.terreus were investigated for secondary metabolites using electrospray ionization-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI-QTOF MS) analysis.The ESI-MS analysis showed that ... -
Developments in seaweed biorefinery research: A comprehensive review
(Elsevier, 2023)The seaweed biorefinery is the analog of a petroleum refinery to produce a wide variety of chemicals and fuels using the technological invention from seaweed biomass in a sustainable manner.It is expected to be a game-changer ... -
Bacterial dynamics along the west coast of India during the non-monsoon and monsoon season
(Elsevier, 2022)The West Coast of India (WCI) is influenced largely by semi-annual changes in the wind pattern and monsoonal currents.This is reported to cause upwelling which increases the phytoplankton growth in this region during the ... -
Microplastic intrusion into the zooplankton, the base of the marine food chain: Evidence from the Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2023)Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the marine environment, yet information regarding their occurrence in the food web is limited.We investigated the concentration and composition of MPs in water and diverse zooplankton ... -
Current status of aerosol-cloud interactions and their impact over the Northern Indian Ocean: A comprehensive review
(Elsevier, 2023)The interactions between aerosol and cloud play a vital role in global climate change and associated with one of the largest uncertainties.In last few decades, due to unique geographical location, Northern Indian Ocean ... -
Spatial variability in aerosol composition and its seawater acidification potential in coastal waters of the western coastal Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2022)Deposition of atmospheric dust is reported to acidify surface waters in the northern Bay of Bengal (BoB).To examine the spatial variability in content and composition of total suspended matter (TSP), aerosol samples were ... -
Atmospheric dust addition under elevated CO2 restructured phytoplankton community from the Arabian Sea: A microcosm approach
(Elsevier, 2022)Atmospheric dust deposition in the North Indian Ocean, particularly in the Arabian Sea significantly impacts phytoplankton productivity.Importantly, the steady increase in Sea Surface Temperature (SST) of the Arabian Sea ... -
Isolation and Identification of Novel Chromium Tolerant Bacterial Strains From a Heavy Metal Polluted Urban Creek: An Assessment of Bioremediation Efficiency and Flocculant Production
(Springer, 2022)Uncontrolled discharge of industrial effluents and wastewaters has resulted in a significant increase in Hexavalent Chromium Cr(VI) levels in urban rivers and tidal inlets such as Mumbai's Versova Creek.Mechanical removal ... -
Climatology and variability of wind speeds along the southwest coast of India derived from Climate Forecast System Reanalysis winds
(Wiley, 2022)Wind climate along the southwest coast of India (Kerala coast) has been analysed using 41 years of Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) winds to delineate long-term trends and variability.The study reveals significant ... -
Ontogenetic Dietary Shift in Megabenthic Predatory Elasmobranchs of a Tropical Estuarine Bay
(Springer, 2023)Elasmobranchs play a significant role in structuring the marine food webs in many marine habitats.Estuaries provide an essential habitat primarily as nurseries for elasmobranchs.The present study investigates the feeding ... -
Records of Sea Slug Fauna (Gastropoda: Heterobranchia) from the shores of Goa, Eastern Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2022)Heterobranch sea slugs are a group of often vibrantly coloured, shell-less, and soft-bodied molluscs which are also indicators of climate change and a source of natural products.The information on sea slug diversity and ... -
Tracing the impact and recovery trajectory of oil spill affected tropical rocky intertidal macrobenthic communities using the BOPA index
(Elsevier, 2023)A yearlong study was conducted to assess the impact of an oil spill on macrobenthos of rocky intertidal zone of Uran, India and its recovery processes, by comparing impacted site with a reference.Immediate acute effects ... -
Climatic control on detrital sedimentation in the continental margin off Chennai, western Bay of Bengal - A 42 kyr record
(Elsevier, 2023)While the peninsular Indian rivers deliver considerable loads of detrital sediments to the Bay of Bengal, changes in their depositional patterns with time are relatively less constrained compared to those deposited by ... -
The equatorial Indian Ocean upper water-column structure influenced by cross-basinal water exchange over the last ~40000 years
(Elsevier, 2022)The central equatorial Indian Ocean (CEIO) is influenced by both, summer and winter monsoon and is known for cross basin exchange of water between the Arabian Sea (AS) and the Bay of Bengal (BoB).Here, we present planktic ... -
