(Taylor & Francis, 2022)Detailed investigation on texture and mineralogy of beach sediments helps to understand their nature of deposition and potential targets of strategic mineral deposits.The beach sediments from the coast of Thiruvananthapuram, ... -
Seasonal variability in aeolian dust deposition fluxes and their mineralogical composition over the Northeastern Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2022)Atmospheric mineral dust is derived from arid/semi-arid region, undergoes long-range transport, and can impact surface biogeochemical processes in the pristine marine region.This study reports fluxes of mineral dust (wet ... -
Scattered wave imaging of the Main Himalayan Thrust and mid-crustal ramp beneath the Arunachal Himalaya and its relation to seismicity
(Elsevier, 2022)Despite numerous seismological experiments in the Himalaya, the Main Himalayan Thrust and the mid-crustal ramp, that is postulated to host major earthquakes in the region, are not precisely imaged.Within the Himalaya, the ... -
Three green seaweed extracts and their fractions for ecofriendly management of pestiferous insect Spodoptera litura
(Springer, 2022)Polyphagous pest Spodoptera litura poses a serious threat to important agriculture crops and their products.A green ecofriendly alternative to existing chemical pesticides, bio-fertilizers are preferred to protect the crop ... -
Endosymbiotic Symbiodinium clades occurrence and influence on coral growth and resilience during stress
(Springer, 2022)The endosymbionts of Symbiodiniaceae members establish an obligate relationship with most of the reef-building corals.Photosynthates of Symbiodiniaceae symbionts provide the maximum energy requirements of the host coral.Apart ... -
Oxygen minimum zone copepods in the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal: Their adaptations and status
(Elsevier, 2022)The Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal are cul-de-sacs of the northern Indian Ocean, and they contain more than half of the world's Oxygen Minimum Zones (OMZs). The current study reviews the vast and advancing literature ... -
Mass mortality of gorgonians: A catastrophic phenomena in the marine national park and sanctuary, Gulf of Kachchh, India
(NIScPR-CSIR, India, 2021)This study records the mass mortality of gorgonids, a Schedule I species at the Mundeka Island, Gulf of Kachchh, marine national park and sanctuary. This event coincided with unusually heavy rains and storm surge associated ... -
Environmental Impacts of Thermal and Brine Dispersion Using Hydrodynamic Modelling for Yanbu Desalination Plant, on the Eastern Coast of the Red Sea
(MDPI, 2022)For any coastal desalination plant, the most effective and practical way to dispose of their brine is to thermally discharge it into the sea via outfalls at some distance from the coast. This study focused on the environmental ... -
Geochemistry of sediments in contact with oxygen minimum zone of the eastern Arabian Sea: Proxy for palaeo-studies
(Springer, 2022)The Arabian Sea encompasses oxygen minimum zone with denitrifying conditions. For the present study, sediments were collected across three transects off Goa transect (GT), Mangalore transect (MT) and Kochi transect (KT) ... -
A study on the physical and biogeochemical responses of the Bay of Bengal due to cyclone Madi
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)Madi was a category-2 cyclonic storm formed over the south-western Bay of Bengal (BoB) in December 2013. It formed on 6th December as a depression, and by 8th December it became a very severe cyclonic storm. Some unique ... -
Recent developments in essentiality of trivalent chromium and toxicity of hexavalent chromium: Implications on human health and remediation strategies
(Elsevier, 2022)Among the many heavy metals, chromium (Cr) is one of the fascinating ones. In its two most prevalent oxidation forms, trivalent (Cr3+) and hexavalent (Cr6+), Cr has completely different toxicity and essentiality in human ... -
Mixotrophic plankton and Synechococcus distribution in waters around Svalbard, Norway during June 2019
