A Subsurface Indian Ocean Dipole Response to Tropical Volcanic Eruptions
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)The impacts of explosive volcanism on the densely populated Indian Ocean (IO) region remain elusive. Dedicated sensitivity experiments indicate that tropical volcanic eruptions induce a stronger surface cooling over Africa ... -
Notes for genera: basal clades of Fungi (including Aphelidiomycota, Basidiobolomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Calcarisporiellomycota, Caulochytriomycota, Chytridiomycota, Entomophthoromycota, Glomeromycota, Kickxellomycota, Monoblepharomycota, Mortierellomyc
(Springer Netherlands, 2018)Compared to the higher fungi (Dikarya), taxonomic and evolutionary studies on the basal clades of fungi are fewer in number. Thus, the generic boundaries and higher ranks in the basal clades of fungi are poorly known. ... -
East India Coastal Current controls the dissolved inorganic carbon in the coastal Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2018)Monthly variations in dissolved inorganic components (DIC) were measured in the coastal waters off Visakhapatnam in the western Bay of Bengal (BoB) to examine the controlling factors on their distribution and fluxes to the ... -
Interannual and long-term sea level variability in the eastern Indian Ocean and South China Sea
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2018)Sea level anomalies (SLAs) derived from satellite observations (over a period of 22 years) and tide gauge data compiled from 66 stations from the eastern Indian Ocean and South China Sea (SCS) and western Pacific Ocean ... -
Bacillus shivajii sp. nov., isolated from a water sample of Sambhar salt lake, India
(Microbiology Society, 2018)A novel Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, motile, spore-forming, strictly aerobic, alkali- and halo- tolerant bacterium, designated strain AK72T, was isolated from a water sample collected from Sambhar salt lake, Rajasthan, ... -
A checklist of tintinnids (loricate ciliates) from the coastal zone of India
(Springer International Publishing, 2018)We report here a checklist of tintinnids (loricate ciliates) for the coastal zone of India. Based on available literature (1978 to 2017), a total of 25 stations were studied from 5 distinct areas of Indian coastal waters. ... -
Reviews and syntheses: Anthropogenic perturbations to carbon fluxes in Asian river systems - concepts, emerging trends, and research challenges
(European Geosciences Union, 2018)Human activities are drastically altering water and material flows in river systems across Asia. These anthropogenic perturbations have rarely been linked to the carbon (C) fluxes of Asian rivers that may account for up ... -
Geochemical, mineralogical, and Sr-Nd isotopic compositions of ferromanganese encrustations from Central Indian Ridge at 06�38.5-S
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)Mineralogical, geochemical, and isotopic (Sr and Nd) studies of 14 ferromanganese encrustations on basaltic substrates from Central Indian Ridge at 06�38.5-S indicate that except for two (NC3 and NC4), the samples are ... -
Diversity and seasonal distribution of ammonia-oxidizing archaea in the water column of a tropical estuary along the southeast Arabian Sea
(Springer Netherlands, 2018)Diversity and distribution pattern of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) were studied across a salinity gradient in the water column of Cochin Estuary (CE), a tropical monsoonal estuary along the southeast Arabian Sea. The ... -
Effective bioremediation and toxicity assessment of tannery wastewaters treated with indigenous bacteria
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2018)This study evaluated the bioremediation capacity of indigenous bacteria isolated from tannery sludge for two different tannery wastewaters collected from Kanpur and Chennai. To identify bacteria which can efficiently degrade ... -
Methane dynamics in the shelf waters of the West coast of India during seasonal anoxia
(Elsevier, 2018)The Western Continental Shelf of India experiences water-column anoxia during late summer/early autumn, thereby providing conducive conditions for methane (CH4) accumulation. Measurements of CH4 along with other ancillary ... -
An inter-site study of biofouling recruitment on static immersion panels in major ports of South East Asia and India
(ASEAN Committee on Science and Technology (COST), 2018)Limited knowledge of native marine biodiversity hinders effective biodiversity management to safeguard South and Southeast Asia�s marine coastal environment against the threat of invasive species transfer through shipping. ... -
Perceptive of the pyroxene-bearing micrometeorites and their relation to chondrites
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)We studied 149 pyroxenes from 69 pyroxene-bearing micrometeorites collected from deep-sea sediments of the Indian Ocean and South Pole Water Well at Antarctica, Amundsen-Scott South Pole station. The minor elements in ... -
Carbonate delta drift: A new sediment drift type
(Elsevier, 2018)Based on high-resolution reflection seismic and core data from IODP Expedition 359 we present a new channel-related drift type attached to a carbonate platform slope, which we termed delta drift. Like a river delta, it is ... -
Numerical Modelling of Ballast Water Dispersion in Different Bioregions along the Coast of India
(ASEAN Committee on Science and Technology (COST), 2018)Aquatic organisms and pathogens may become major threats to the coastal and marine environment when introduced into a region beyond their natural distributions through ballast water (BW). Coastal currents induced by tides ... -
Signature of Indian Ocean Dipole on the western boundary current of the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2018)This study uses an unprecedented collection of 27 years of repeated eXpendable Bathy Thermograph (XBT) sections crossing the western and north-western boundaries of the Bay of Bengal (BoB). Our objective is to analyse the ... -
Role of eddies on intensity of oxygen minimum zone in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2018)One of the strongest oxygen minimum zones (OMZ) in the world oceans occurs in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) with no systematic trends in dissolved oxygen (DO) since past half a century. An evaluation is made here to examine the ... -
Diversity of culturable nitrate-reducing bacteria from the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone
(Elsevier, 2018)The subsurface waters of the northern Arabian Sea display a pronounced oxygen minimum layer associated with high nitrite maxima which provide an ideal niche for organisms that can respire nitrate. Culture-based studies ... -
Influence of Darkness and Aging on Marine and Freshwater Biofilm Microbial Communities Using Microcosm Experiments
(Springer US, 2018)Ballast tank biofilms pose an additional risk of microbial invasion if sloughed off during ballasting operations, yet their significance and invasion biology is poorly understood. In this study, biofilms developed in marine ... -
Variability of terrigenous input to the Bay of Bengal for the last ~80 kyr: Implications on the Indian monsoon variability
(Springer Berlin, 2018)Oceanographic processes in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) are strongly impacted by south-westerly and north-easterly winds of the Indian monsoon system during the summer and winter respectively. Variations in calcium carbonate ...
