Multiple ash layers in late Quaternary sediments from the Central Indian Basin
(Elsevier, 2016)We have investigated three sediment cores collected from water depths > 5000 m along the transect 76°30`E in close proximity to a fracture zone in the Central Indian Basin (CIB). The cores yielded five volcanic horizons ... -
Spatial distribution of suspended particulate matter in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries: inferences on the estuarine turbidity maximum
(Current Science Association, 2016)The present study estimate the suspended particulate matter in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries. samples were collected from the Mandovi (M0A–M9) and Zuari (Z0–Z8) estuaries and Cumbarjua canal (C0–C3).The spatial distribution ... -
A new species of Eutrachytes (Acari: Uropodina: Eutrachytidae) associated with the indian mangrove (Avicennia officinalis)
(Acarologia, 2016)A new species of Eutrachytes (Eutrachytes flagellatus) is described based on a complete ontogenetic series, starting from larva and including the adult female and male. This Uropodina mite was isolated from the pneumatophore ... -
Crustal structure and rift tectonics across the Cauvery–Palar basin, eastern continental margin of India based on seismic and potential field modelling
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2016)The Cauvery–Palar basin is a major peri-cratonic rift basin located along the Eastern Continental Margin of India (ECMI) that had formed during the rift-drift events associated with the breakup of eastern Gondwanaland ... -
Mercury profiles in sediment from the marginal high of Arabian Sea: An indicator of increasing anthropogenic Hg input
(Springer, 2016)Total Hg distributions and its speciation were determined in two sediment cores collected from the western continental marginal high of India. Total Hg content in the sediment was found to gradually increase (by approximately ... -
Linkage between speciation of Cd in mangrove sediment and its bioaccumulation in total soft tissue of oyster from the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2016)This study established a mechanistic linkage between Cd speciation and bioavailability in mangrove system from the west coast of India. High bioaccumulation of Cd was found in the oyster (Crassostrea sp.) even at low Cd ... -
Geochemical fractionation of Ni, Cu and Pb in the deep sea sediments from the Central Indian Ocean Basin: An insight into the mechanism of metal enrichment in sediment
(Elsevier, 2016)Metal speciation study in combination with major element chemistry of deep sea sediments provided possible metal enrichment pathways in sediments collected from environmentally different locations of Central Indian Ocean ... -
Synergistic effect of elevated temperature, pCO2 and nutrients on marine biofilm
(Elsevier, 2016)Natural marine biofilms provide signatures of the events that occur over a period of time and can be used as bioindicators of environmental changes. Hence, the effects of temperature (30 and 34 °C), pCO<sub>2</sub> (400 ... -
Estimation of sea surface temperature (SST) using marine seismic data
(Springer, 2016)Not much attention is given to direct wave arrivals in marine seismic data that are acquired for petroleum exploration and prospecting. These direct arrivals are usually muted out in routine seismic data processing. In the ... -
Fluorescence detection of the pathogenic bacteria Vibrio harveyi in solution and animal cells using semiconductor quantum dots
(The Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016)Validation of microbial infection pathways in eukaryotic cells is challenging in the control of various infectious diseases. Semiconductor nanocrystals, also called quantum dots (QD), due to their exceptional brightness ... -
Variations in carbonaceous species at a high-altitude site in western India: Role of synoptic scale transport
(Elsevier, 2016)Atmospheric fine-mode particulate matter (PM2.5), collected during January to December 2007 at a high-altitude site (Mt. Abu, 24.6°N, 72.7°E, 1680 m asl) in the western India, have been analysed for carbonaceous and inorganic ... -
Evolution of extreme high waters along the east coast of India and at the head of the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2016)The recent evolution of extreme high waters along the severe cyclone-risk coasts of the Bay of Bengal (the east coast of India and Bangladesh) was assessed using long-term (24–34 years) hourly tide gauge data available ... -
Controls on ferromanganese crust composition and reconnaissance resource potential, Ninetyeast Ridge, Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2016)A reconnaissance survey of Fe–Mn crusts from the 5000 km long (~31°S to 10°N) Ninetyeast Ridge (NER) in the Indian Ocean shows their widespread occurrence along the ridge as well as with water depth on the ridge flanks. ... -
Major and trace element geochemistry of S-type cosmic spherules
(The Meteoritical society, U.S., 2016)Micrometeorites that pass through the Earth's atmosphere undergo changes in their chemical compositions, thereby making it difficult to understand if they are sourced from the matrix, chondrules, or calcium–aluminum-rich ... -
A simple estimation of equatorial Pacific response from windstress to untangle Indian Ocean dipole and basin influences on El Nino
(Springer, 2016)Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomalies that develop in spring in the central Pacific are crucial to the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) development. Here we use a linear, continuously stratified, ocean model, and its ... -
Ruthenium(II)-catalyzed synthesis of pyrrole- and indole-fused isocoumarins by C-H bond activation in DMF and water
(Wiley, 2016)Pyrrole- and indole-fused isocoumarins constitute important structural units in natural products and pharmacophores, although the direct and selective bifunctionalization of pyrrole and indole remain a challenge. Herein, ... -
