Seasonal variations and trophic ecology of microzooplankton in the southeastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2010)The seasonal ecological response of microzooplankton in the southeastern Arabian Sea is presented. During the spring intermonsoon period, stratification and depletion of nitrate in the surface waters (nitracline was at 60 ... -
Air-sea gas transfer in a shallow, flowing and coastal environment estimated by dissolved inorganic carbon and dissolved oxygen analyses
(The Oceanographic Society of Japan, 2010)We estimated gas exchange rates in Kabira Reef at Ishigaki Island, southwest Japan, using a mass balance calculation with dual ‘biological’ tracers: dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and dissolved oxygen (DO). The nighttime ... -
Distribution of butyltins in waters and sediments of the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, west coast of India
(Springer, 2010)Butyltins (TBT, DBT, MBT) were measured in water and sediment samples collected from various locations in the Mandovi (ten stations) and Zuari (nine stations) estuaries, Goa, India, during November 2007. The total butyltin ... -
