Widespread fluorescence in terrestrial and marine samples investigated from India
(Elsevier, 2021)The discovery of green fluorescent protein (GFP) from jellyfish Aequorea victoria has provoked numerous studies to unveil the myriads of biomedical applications. Consequently, several studies also revealed the prevalence ... -
Glacial-Holocene climate-driven shifts in lacustrine and terrestrial environments: Rock magnetic and geochemical evidence from East Antarctic Mochou Lake
(Elsevier, 2021)Geomorphic reconstructions of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet history across Antarctica suggest diachronous and varying retreat patterns with changing climate. However, little is known of how terrestrial environments responded ... -
Citizen science tools reveal changes in estuarine water quality following demolition of buildings
(MDPI AG, 2021)Turbidity and water colour are two easily measurable properties used to monitor pollution. Here, we highlight the utility of a low-cost device�3D printed, hand-held Mini Secchi disk (3DMSD) with Forel-Ule (FU) colour scale ... -
Influence of oil and gas exploration activities on the macrobenthic community structure of the Krishna-Godavari basin (Ravva coast), Western Bay of Bengal
(Pergamon, 2021)The influence of oil and gas exploration activities on the macrobenthic community of an offshore oil and gas drilling site was investigated along the Krishna-Godavari basin (KG), Western Bay of Bengal. In the oil well ... -
Fe and S-isotope compositions of hydrothermal deposits from Kings Triple Junction, Lau Basin, southwest Pacific Ocean
(Elsevier, 2021)We analyzed iron and sulfur isotopic compositions of polymetallic sulfides from an extinct hydrothermal mound near the Kings Triple Junction of the northern Lau basin belonging to a back-arc basin for understanding the ... -
Macrobenthos community response to the seasonal hypoxia associated with coastal upwelling off Kochi, along the Southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)This study presents the seasonal macrobenthic assemblages in the nearshore environment off Kochi along the southwest coast of India, which is exposed to the freshwater influx, and coastal upwelling associated seasonal ... -
Real Time PCR detection of Macrobrachium rosenbergii (de Man, 1879) larvae with emphasis to their ecology
(EDP Sciences, 2021)Species specific identification of early larval stages of many decapod crustaceans sampled from plankton collections remains cumbersome owing to lack of distinguishable characteristics, where DNA based molecular methods ... -
Marine Natural Products from Tunicates and their associated microbes
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2021)Marine tunicates are identified as a potential source of marine natural products (MNPs), demonstrating a wide range of biological properties, like antimicrobial and anticancer activities. The symbiotic relationship between ... -
Arenibacter amylolyticus sp. nov., an amylase-producing bacterium of the family Flavobacteriaceae isolated from marine water in India
(Microbiology Society, 2021)A novel Gram-stain-negative, curved rod-shaped, 0.5-0.7 �m wide and 3.0-10.0 �m long, non-motile bacterium, designated strain AK53T, was isolated from a 5 m depth water sample collected from the Bay of Bengal, Visakhapatnam, ... -
Climatic and Tectonic Control on the Bengal Fan Sedimentation since the Pliocene
(AGU-Wiley, 2021)Strontium and Neodymium isotopic analysis of the lithogenic fractions of the hole U1445A (International Ocean Discovery Program-353) collected from the deep-water end of the Mahanadi basin (western Bay of Bengal) was carried ... -
Microbiome of marine shallow-water hydrothermal vents
(CRC Press, Boca Raton, 2021)Marine hydrothermal vents are extreme environments in the ocean where tectonic activities are evidenced in the plate boundaries or mid-ocean ridges. Hot mineral-rich water coming out through the hydrothermal vent crevices ... -
Bacterial Resistance to Antimicrobial Agents
(MDPI AG, 2021)Bacterial pathogens as causative agents of infection constitute an alarming concern in the public health sector. In particular, bacteria with resistance to multiple antimicrobial agents can confound chemotherapeutic efficacy ... -
Observed variability of the West India Coastal Current on the continental shelf from 2010-2017
(Springer, 2021)We describe the variability of the West India Coastal Current (WICC) during 2009-2017 using data from acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs) attached to moorings deployed on the outer shelf at a water-column depth of ... -
Phylogenetic diversity of culturable marine bacteria from sediments underlying the oxygen minimum zone of the Arabian Sea and their role in nitrate reduction
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2021)The eastern Arabian Sea has a unique and permanent oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) extending along the western continental margin of India. The Arabian Sea OMZ is a site of intense denitrification, contributing to 20% of the ... -
Sulfate-Reducing and Sulfur-Oxidizing Bacterial Activity in the Coastal Waters of Arabian Sea During Post Upwelling Season
(Taylor and Francis, 2021)The synergistic existence of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) and colorless sulfur-oxidizing bacteria (CSOB) involved in nutrient turnover is sparsely documented in coastal waters. To understand the processes mediated by ... -
Tidal hydrodynamics and flushing characteristics of Gulf of Khambhat, west coast of India - A numerical approach
(Springer, 2021)Tidal hydrodynamics of the Gulf of Khambhat (GoK) were studied with the observed and simulated datasets. The Cushing time of the Gulf was estimated using the 2D-model calibrated and validated with the tide and current speed ... -
