Population genetics of drifting (Calanus spp.) and resident (Acartia clausi) plankton in Norwegian fjords
(Cambridge University Press, 2000)Kaartvedt distinguished between drifting and resident plankton and hypothesized that the latter were distinguished by their ability to maintain their horizontal position in desired habitats (Kaartvedt, 1993). In this study, ... -
Detection of luciferase gene sequences in nonluminescent bacteria from the Chesapeake Bay
(FEMS, 2000)A 745-bp luxA fragment was amplified from Vibrio harveyi (UM 1503), radiolabeled, and used as a probe to detect and quantify luxA genotypes in culturable bacterial populations from the Chesapeake Bay. DNA samples from 53 ... -
Fluxes of diatoms in the Dona Paula Bay, west coast of India
(Cambridge University Press, 2000)Sediment traps were deployed at a station in the Dona Paula Bay, Goa, India to collect sedimenting particles at weekly intervals from November to May during 1995-1997. Sedimented particles were analysed for total diatom ... -
Constituents of Chondria armata
(Pergamon, 2000)A novel long chain fatty ester, pentyl hentriacontanoate 1 and an orange red pigment, caulerpin 2 have been isolated and characterised from a red alga Chondria armata. The pigment caulerpin hitherto known to be a constituent ... -
Use of a chiA probe for detection of chitinase genes in bacteria from the Chesapeake Bay
(FEMS, 2000)PCR primers specific for the chiA gene were designed by alignment and selection of highly conserved regions of chiA sequences from Serratia marcescens, Alteromonas sp., Bacillus circulans and Aeromonas caviae. These primers ... -

A first report on a bloom of the marine prymnesiophycean, Phaeocystis globosa from the Arabian Sea
(Ifremer/ CNRS/ IRD/ Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS. Tous droits reserves, 2000)A thick bloom of the marine prymnesiophycean, Phaeocystis globosa was observed in the central Arabian Sea during the summer monsoon period (July-August, 1996). The cells were mostly in colonial form, embedded in gelatinous ... -
Prioritization of potential sites for marine biodiversity conservation in India
(World Wide Fund for Nature - India, New Delhi (India), 2000)Tropical marine ecosystems of the Indian subcontinent harbour a large number of species belonging to various habitats that include mangrove swamps, estuaries, lagoons, muddy, sandy/rocky shores, and oceanic islands. In ... -
Longshore transport based on directional waves along north Tamilnadu Coast, India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2001)The accurate assessment of longshore sediment transport pattern along Nagapattinam-Poompuhar, Tamil Nadu, India coastline bears significance due to the historical erosion and its geographical location adjoining the sheltered ... -
Nearshore processes along Tikkavanipalem Beach, Visakhapatnam, India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2001)Directional wave data collected at 12 m water depth, at 1 km distance off Tikkavanipalem, Andhra Pradesh, India from December 1997 to November 1998, was used to estimate the longshore currents and longshore sediment transport ... -

An interactive graphical system of XBT data quality control and visualization
(Pergamon, 2001)A PC-based system has been developed for quality control and visualization of expendable bathy thermograph (XBT) data archived at the Indian Oceanographic Data Centre. The system, coded in Visual C++, is user interactive ... -

BOBMEX: The Bay of Bengal Monsoon Experiment
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)The first observational experiment under the Indian Climate Research Programme, called the Bay of Bengal Monsoon Experiment (BOBMEX), was carried out during July-August 1999. BOBMEX was aimed at measurements of important ... -
Prediction of tides using back-propagation neural networks
(Allied, Chennai, 2001)Prediction of tides is very much essential for human activities and to reduce the construction cost in marine environment. This paper presents an application of the artificial neural network with back-propagation procedures ... -
Cyclone and after...
(Dreams Alive Magazines, 2001)This is a general article meant for the non-specialist reader. The article provides a brief description of the devastating effects of tropical cyclones in general, and super-cyclone that hit the Orissa Coast, India in 1999, ... -
Monsoons, history of
(Academic Press, San Diego, USA, 2001)The evolution of the Asian monsoon started at around 9.5 Ma, in response to the uplift of the Himalayas. The monsoonal intensity reached its maximum at around 5 Ma, and from that time the associated easterly trade winds ... -
Wave forecasting in near real time basis by neural network
(Allied, Chennai, 2001)In modern age, the human settlements and activities are very much increasing near the oceanfront. In order to cope up with the need such as construction of jetties, harbours, offshore berths, offshore platforms, navigation ... -
Numerical modeling of tide-induced currents in Thane Creek, west coast of India
(American Society of Civil Engineering, 2001)A 2D numerical model was applied to study tide-induced currents in the Thane Creek, Maharashtra, India. The model was forced by the tide at Apollo Bunder, calibrated with the observed tide at Pir Pau, and verified with the ...
