Seasonal beach profiling along Malvan and Kotharwadi coast , southern Maharashtra, central west coast of India.
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa., 2006)Seasonal morphological variations and effect of oceanographic processes such as erosion or accretion along beaches are important to understand the nature of the beach and the cyclic changes occurring during different ... -
Studies on some cues regulating metamorphosis of the larvae of Balanus amphitrite (Cirripedia: Thoracica)
(2002)Recruitment of the larvae of fouling organisms and their metamorphosis is the most important step in the fouling process. Cypris larvae does a substratum search before undergoing metamorphosis. The third antennular segment ... -
Studies on some ecological aspects of Balanus amphitrite (Cirripedia: Thoracica)
(2002)The year round breeding capability of Balanus amphitrite indicates a potential for continuous recruitment. The recruitment pattern however indicated a lull during monsoon. The study site experiences increased land run off ... -
Eco-biology of marine diatoms with emphasis on the influence of physico-chemical parameters
(2003)Diatoms constitute an important part of the microphytobenthic community in the intertidal sand flat. Intertidal sandflats are dynamic environments, where the tidally generated water movement and the associated processes ... -
Ballast Water Risk Assessment, Ports of Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru, India, October 2003: Final Report
(International Maritime Organization, 2003)This report describes the BWRA activity undertaken for the neighbouring ports of Mumbai and Jawaharlal Nehru, which form the Mumbai Demonstration Site and are managed by the Mumbai Port Trust (MPT) and Jawaharlal Nehru ... -
Programs to obtain vertical heights from mean sea level and for computing volume of sand/mineral along beaches:A case study with Kalbadevi beach profiling data and results.
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 2006)Two programs have been developed to process beach profile data, for obtaining vertical heights with respect to mean sea level (M.S.L.) and for computation of volume of heavy mineral/sand accumulation or erosion along the ... -
Trace Metals And Organic Matter Diagenesis At The Oman Margin
(1997)Trace Metals (e.g. Mn and Fe) play an important role as secondary oxidants in the degradation of sedimentary OM under sub-oxic conditions. Hence the remineralisation of organic constituents of sediments in the marine ... -
The Late-Pleistocene sedimentation history in the Eastern Arabian Sea: Climate Weathering-Productivity linkage
(2004)This thesis is aimed to understand the response of the Indian monsoons and associated biogeochemical processes in the Eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) to the past climate change. The EAS bordering the western coast of India is ... -
Study of the directional spectrum of ocean waves using array, buoy and radar measurements
(1999)Phase/time/path difference (PTPD) methods of Esteva [1977] and Borgman [1974] with two modifications, viz., true phase and coherence proposed in this thesis, have for the first time been successfully used for computing ... -
Studies on some aspects of marine microbial exopolysaccharides
(2003)In this thesis, a study on the dynamics of three types of EPS viz. NaClsoluble EPS, EDTA-soluble EPS and TEP was carried out at a shallow tropical station at the Dona Paula Bay, west coast of India during 1998-2000. During ... -
Impact of dredging on water quality and group diversity of marine zooplankton during construction and reclaimation activities of new berths at Mormugao Harbour, Goa.
(2005)Pelagic and benthic communities in the near shore marine environment are subject to siltation process arising from natural causes or human activities. These could act as stress factors to the living organisms. Dredging ... -
Multivariate data analysis
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, 2005)This report describes some of the multivariate data analysis techniques used in meteorology and oceanography and provides the necessary background and software to undertake appropriate analyses of a given data set. The ... -
Mercury-Resistant Marine Bacteria and their Role in Bioremediation of Certain Toxicants
(2004)The primary objective of this study was to isolate and enumerate mercury-resistant bacteria and to compare their occurrence and distribution spatially and temporally along the Indian coasts. As coastal waters experience ... -
Low-frequency variability of sea level along the coast of India
(1998)Coastal sea level is one of the better documented oceanic variables, there being several tide-gauge records of hourly sea level that stretch back to the last century. This, together with the fact that geostrophic, low-frequency ... -
Observations of post tsunami reconnaissance investigations along eastern coastal tract of India following the devastating tsunami of 26th December 2004
(National Inst. of Oceanography, 2005)Many coastal regions of India were affected by the tsunami caused by a magnitude 9 earthquake off Sumatra on 26th December 2004. This report presents the observations of post-tsunami reconnaissance survey conducted by the ... -
