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
(Elsevier, 2021)In order to understand the influence of summer conditions (extended daylight, warmer temperature, increased meltwater, increased suspended load and nutrient chemistry) on the distribution of phytoplankton (diatoms & ... -
Trophic ecology of four species of emperor fish (Lethrinus) in the Gulf of Mannar along the Indian southeast coast
(Elsevier, 2022)This study presents the trophic ecology and resource partitioning among four species of emperor fishes (Lethrinus lentjan, L.microdon, L. nebulosus and L.olivaceus) in the Gulf of Mannar, based on a year-round study conducted ... -
World Atlas of late Quaternary Foraminiferal Oxygen and Carbon Isotope Ratios
(Copernicus Publications, 2022)We present a global atlas of downcore foraminiferal oxygen and carbon isotope ratios available at https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.936747 (Mulitza et al., 2021a). The database contains 2106 published and previously unpublished ... -
Analysis of Bacteria-Phytoplankton relationships at three discrete locations in the Eastern Arabian Sea during winter
(Elsevier, 2022)Bacterial abundance (BA), bacterial production (BP), chlorophyll a (Chl a) and primary production (PP) were estimated during Dec 2016-Jan 2017 at three discrete locations viz. the coastal waters, oceanic waters and near ... -
Benthic-pelagic coupling assessed using phytoplankton marker pigments: a case study from the Paradip port, East Coast of India
(Springer, 2022)This study addresses the seasonal distribution of phytoplankton marker pigments (PMP) and the ratios (indicating freshness and fate) from water and surface sediments from the coastal port ecosystem (Paradip port, Odisha, ... -
Chemical composition of Low Moor and Walker Company cannons in the Odisha State Maritime Museum, east coast of India
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2022)Cannons are military or civil weapons supported on carriages or fixed mounts and used in warfare as well as against rebellions. Now, most of the cannons are exhibited in museums, forts, public and private buildings , and ... -
In-situ O-isotope analysis of relict spinel and forsterite in small (<200µm) Antarctic micrometeorites - Samples of chondrules & CAIs from carbonaceous chondrites
(Elsevier, 2022)We report high-precision secondary ion mass spectrometer triple oxygen isotope systematics (95 individual analyses) from 37 micrometeorites (MMs) collected from South Pole Water Well (SPWW), Antarctica. The study population ... -
Conjugate nature of the Alleppey-Trivandrum Terrace Complex with the Northern Madagascar Ridge in the early opening model of the Arabian Sea: evaluation based on an integrated geophysical investigation
(Springer, 2022)The southwestern continental margin of India reveals the presence of an anomalous bathymetric high feature located in the mid-continental slope region off Trivandrum. Based on the analysis of the available geophysical data ... -
Seasonal variability in environmental parameters influence bacterial communities in mangrove sediments along an estuarine gradient
(Elsevier, 2022)Mangrove ecosystems are repositories of divergent microbial communities which respond differently to environmental characteristics. Hence, it is important to understand the community structure with respect to pertinent ... -
A Path-Following Controller for Marine Vehicles Using a Two-Scale Inner-Outer Loop Approach
(MDPI, 2022)This article addresses the problem of path following of marine vehicles along straight lines in the presence of currents by resorting to an inner-outer control loop strategy, with due account for the presence of currents. ... -
Nitrogen fixation in the western coastal Bay of Bengal: Controlling factors and contribution to primary production
(Elsevier, 2022)N2 fixation rates were measured at 18 stations in the western coastal Bay of Bengal (BoB) to evaluate its contribution to the external source of nitrogen and its controlling factors. During the study period (fall monsoon), ... -
Dark survival in biofilm-forming microalgae: potential for colonizing benthic ecosystems
(Oxford Academic, 2022)The biofilm-forming microalgae are known to experience periods of continuous darkness (upto several days), in addition to the natural day-night cycle, especially in the intertidal sediment regions (when transported to ... -
