Potent targeted larvicidal activities of marine-derived Bacillus sp. bacterial extracts on mosquito vectors
(Springer Nature, 2025)Mosquito vector-borne diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity across the globe. Current vector control strategies mainly rely on chemical insecticides, but their incessant usage has resulted in ... -
Carbon dynamics in the intertidal rockpools along the central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2025)Shallow inter-tidal ecosystems such as rockpools provide important insights into the ongoing climatic changes and their consequences. We studied the diurnal and seasonal variations in carbon chemistry and associated ... -
Geochemistry and mineralogy of modern fjord sediments, west Spitsbergen, Svalbard: implications for provenance and weathering
(Springer, 2025)Arctic fjords are ideal sites for studying the recent sedimentary process that affects high-latitude coastal ecosystems. High latitude Raudfjord, Magdalenefjord, and St. Jonsfjord from the west Spitsbergen, Svalbard have ... -
Distribution, sources and bioaccumulation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in oysters of Sal estuary Goa, India
(Elsevier, 2025)Present study aimed to unfurl occurrence and accumulation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water and oysters of Sal estuary (Goa, India). The highest total PAHs concentration were observed at mid estuary (SSJ2) ... -
Vertical structure of mesoscale eddies and their impact on the modulation of tracer fields in the eastern Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2025)The present study utilises a combination of observation and ocean reanalysis data to comprehend the vertical structure of mesoscale eddies and their influence on the modulation of tracer properties (temperature, salinity, ... -
First report of a giant protist Tricranastrum trinibrachium Takahashi 1991 (syn. Myelastrum trinibrachium) from the Indian Ocean
(Oxford University Press, 2025)Rhizarians play an important role in ocean biogeochemistry and are used as paleoproxies. These organisms, specifically the giant ones, which are fragile in nature, are poorly studied and understood. A rhizarian species ... -
Fatty acid and sterol biomarkers as indicators of symbiont activity in chemosynthetic organisms from a methane seep ecosystem (Krishna-Godavari basin, Bay of Bengal)
(Springer, 2025)In the present study, an attempt was made to characterize the bacterial symbionts present in the organisms, their carbon sources and assess tissue-specific isotope variability within the organisms in Bathymodiolus, ... -
Source, bioavailability, and toxicity of metals in modern fjord sediments, west Spitsbergen, and their influence on sediment-associated biota
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2024)Metal contamination in the Arctic region has increased over the years despite its remote and isolated location. Thus, to evaluate the bioavailable fractions of various metals and their effects on sediment-associated biota, ... -
Evaluation of fate of organic matter in sediment through microcosm experiments
(Wiley Online Library, 2024)Laboratory microcosm experiments help to understand the degradation pattern of different sources derived from organic matter (OM) at the sediment?water interface and relate it to field processes. Microcosm experiments were ... -
Variations in wind wave parameters measured in the coastal waters of north-eastern Bay of Bengal
Characteristics of the wind waves measured in the coastal waters of the northeastern Bay of Bengal are examined for 4 years. A comparison of the energy wave period (Te) with different wave periods shows that the average ... -
First record of a cold-seep squat lobster Munidopsis lauensis Baba and de Saint Laurent, 1992 (Anomura: Galatheoidea) from Indian waters
(Brazilian Crustacean Society, 2025)The present study reports the first zoogeographical record of the squat lobster Munidopsis lauensis Baba and de Saint Laurent, 1992 from a cold-seep site in the Krishna-Godavari Basin (Bay of Bengal), Northern Indian Ocean. ... -
Seabed videography using indigenously built deep sea underwater camera
(Current Science, 2024)In the recent years, underwater visual survey is becoming as a powerful investigation technique, especially in focus to deep-sea study. In this paper, we report seabed investigation made with an easy-to-operate indigenously ... -
Crustal recycling and mantle heterogeneity beneath the Central Indian ridge, Indian Ocean,
(Elsevier, 2025)This study presents a new database including mineral chemistry, whole rock geochemistry and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions for basalts recovered from the Central Indian Ridge (CIR) with a view to evaluate melt generation ... -
The water budget of the Mahadayi river and its implications for the inter-state dispute
(Springer, 2024)We assess the water budget of the Mahadayi river, an inter-state basin on India's west coast with a long-running dispute. We seek to answer the following question: What is the discharge at any given location along the ... -
Disruptive synergism: The Co-occurrence of scyphozoan Pelagia noctiluca (Forssk l, 1775) swarms with green tide-causing dinoflagellate Noctiluca scintillans (Macartney) Kofoid & Swezy, 1921,
(Elsevier, 2025)The swarming behavior of certain scyphozoan clades, such as Pelagia noctiluca (Forsk l, 1775), highlights an evolutionary advantage. These adaptations promote survival and reproductive success, resulting in mass occurrences. ... -
Spatial and temporal variations in net primary production and long-term trends between 2003 and 2022 in the Indian Ocean: A synthesis using different models
(Elsevier, 2025)The measurements of net particulate primary production (NPP) with reference to space and time are limited in the Indian Ocean. Therefore, models are the only source of understanding spatial, temporal, and long-term variations. ... -
Sedimentary organic matter signature hints at the phytoplankton-driven biological carbon pump in the central Arabian Sea
(COPERNICUS GESELLSCHAFT MBH, 2025)The central Arabian Sea, a unique tropical basin, is profoundly impacted by monsoon wind reversal affecting its surface circulation and biogeochemistry. Phytoplankton blooms associated with high biological productivity and ... -
Anthropogenic litter pollution in the mangrove blue carbon ecosystem: Unveiling the spatial distribution, composition, source delineation and mitigation measures along the Goa coast, India
