The role of salinity on the dynamics of the Arabian Sea mini warm pool
(American Geophysical Union, 2012)Warmer (more than 28 degrees C) sea surface temperature (SST) occurs in the South Eastern Arabian Sea (SEAS, 5 degrees N-13 degrees N, 65 degrees E-76 degrees during March-April, and is known as the Arabian Sea Mini Warm ... -
Statistical analysis on extreme wave height
(Springer, 2012)The classical extreme value theory based on generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution and generalized Pareto distribution (GPD) is applied to the wave height estimate based on wave hindcast data covering a period of 31 ... -
Indian contributions in the field of palaeoceanography (2006-2012)
(Indian National Science Academy, 2012)Excellent studies have been carried by Indian scientists to understand paleoceanographic changes in the Indian Ocean including the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal using Ocean Drilling Program cores. These studies revealed ... -
Statistical prediction of Late Miocene climate
(National Institute of Oceanography (CSIR), India, 1994)The theory of statistical prediction of paleoclimate (Imbrie and Kipp, 1971), which includes multiple regression analysis and factor analysis is reviewed. Necessary software is listed. An application to predicting palaeo ... -
Time Series Observations in the North Indian Ocean
(IMBER, 2011)Unlike the Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean, the northern Indian Ocean is geographically unique. The bounding to the north by the Asian landmass has a profound impact on the biogeochemistry of the region. The Arabian Sea ... -
Study of Modis satellite derived aerosol angstrom exponent and in-situ measured values using Sun photometer in part of the west coast of Indian Peninsula
(Indian Society of Geomatics, 2011)The aerosol angstrom exponent (AAE) is often used as a qualitative indicator of aerosol particle size. It is important to understand and quantify the microphysical impact of aerosols which are derived from natural and ... -
Study of Chinese porcelain sherds of Old Goa, India: Indicators of trade contacts
(Journal of the Indian Society for Prehistoric and Quarternary Studies, 2011)Chinese ceramics have a long history of evolution and distribution. Chinese ceramics have been discovered from habitations, ports, trade centres and shipwrecks sites which facilitated the precise dating of sites and ... -
Vibrio harveyi modulated gene expression in Penaeus monodon and Fenneropenaeus indicus
(2011)This work tries to contribute to a better understanding of the defense system in the post-larvae of P. monodon and F. indicus upon challenge with a virulent strain of V. harveyi. This study involved the use of SSH for ... -
Studies on some important secondary metabolites from marine organisms
(2011)This thesis describes the efforts directed towards the discovery of bioactive metabolites from marine-derived Aspergillus species of fungi, marine invertebrates such as sponge Oceanapia and soft coral Lobophytum ... -
Geophysical studies of aseismic ridges in northern Indian Ocean-crustal structure and isostatic models
(2011)The present work consists of a detailed geophysical study of the structure and isostatic compensation mechanisms of three major aseismic ridges; The Comorin Ridge, The 85°E Ridge and Ninety east Ridge of the northeastern ... -
Differentially expressed genes under simulated deep-sea conditions in the psychrotolerant yeast Cryptococcus sp. NIOCCPY13
(Springer, 2012)Microorganisms exhibit varying degrees of tolerance to extreme conditions of pressure and temperature. In the present study, the psychrotolerant deep-sea yeast, Cryptococcus sp. NIOCC_PY13, was exposed to elevated hydrostatic ... -
Gut fluorescence analysis of barnacle larvae: An approach to quantify the ingested food
(Elsevier, 2012)Gut fluorescence analysis can provide a snapshot of ingested food and has been employed in feeding studies of various organisms. In this study we standardized the gut fluorescence method using laboratory-reared barnacle ... -
Deterioration of Early Holocene coral reef due to sea level rise along west coast of India: Benthic foraminiferal testimony
(China University of Geosciences (Beijing), 2012)A total of 103 surface sediment samples collected from the water depth range of 15-3300 m along Vijaydurg-Karwar stretch of central west coast of India were analyzed for foraminiferal content. Relict benthic foraminiferal ... -
A Cenozoic record of the equatorial Pacific carbonate compensation depth
(Nature Publishing Group, 2012)Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and climate are regulated on geological timescales by the balance between carbon input from volcanic and metamorphic outgassing and its removal by weathering feedbacks; these ... -
Aluminium in the northwestern Indian Ocean (Arabian Sea)
(Elsevier, 1994)The distribution of Al has been studied along two transects (approx 15 and 18 degrees N) in the Arabian Sea The waters of the Arabian Sea along the Indian coast are relatively enriched in Al (approx 55-74 nM) over the ... -
Biomarkers of petroleum contamination in the digestive gland of Perna viridis (L.)
(The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2012)Oxidative stress responses were evaluated in the digestive gland tissue of Perna viridis exposed to water accommodated fractions (WAFs) of petrol and diesel at 0.5 percent and 5 percent concentrations over 5-, 10-, and ... -
A deductive approach to select or rank journals in multifaceted subject, Oceanography
(Springer, 2012)This study discusses Singleton approach and differential approach for analyzing citations of published literature in oceanography from 30 countries. The ranking correlation of journals showed better positive correlation ... -
Making sense of ocean biota: How evolution and biodiversity of land organisms differ from that of the plankton
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2012)The oceans cover 70% of the planet’s surface, and their planktonic inhabitants generate about half the global primary production, thereby playing a key role in modulating planetary climate via the carbon cycle. The ocean ...
