Exploration and excavation of shipwrecks in Goa waters - Preliminary results
(Geological Survey of India, 2001) -
A group of 20 stone anchors from the waters of Dwarka, on the Gujarat Coast, India
(Blackwell, 2001)A large number of stone anchors were discovered in a water depth of 10-14 m off Dwarka during the 1998-99 season. The seabed near the anchors consists of a ledge with an average height of 1 m. Several anchors were found ... -
Exploration for shipwrecks off Sunchi Reef, Goa, west coast of India
(Taylor and Francis, 2001)Archival records show that a number of ships have sunk in the waters off Goa, on the west coast of India, as a result of foul weather, warfare and human error. Explorations were carried out in 1997-99 to locate shipwrecks ... -
Decolorization of molasses spent wash by the white-rot fungus Flavodon flavus, isolated from a marine habitat
(Springer, 2001)Flavodon flavus (Klotzsch) Ryvarden, a basidiomycete (NIOCC strain 312) isolated from decomposing leaves of a sea grass, decolorized pigments in molasses spent wash (MSW) by 80% after 8 days of incubation, when used at ... -
Emission of carbon dioxide from a tropical estuarine system, Goa, India
(American Geophysical Union, 2001)Carbon dioxide species were studied in Mandovi-Zuari system, a tropical estuarine complex influenced by strong monsoonal run-off, with implications to build up and air-water exchange of CO sub(2) . Total carbon dioxide ... -
Physical forcing of biological productivity in the northern Arabian Sea during the northeast monsoon
(Pergamon, 2001)Time-series observations at a nominally fixed location in the northern Arabian Sea (21 degrees N, 64 degrees E) during the Northeast Monsoon (winter, February) of 1997 showed the prevalence of cold sea-surface temperatures ... -
A study on inorganic carbon components in the Andaman Sea during the post monsoon season
(Ifremer/ CNRS/ IRD/ Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS. Tous droits reserves, 2001)Extensive data have been collected on the carbon dioxide system during the post monsoon season in the eastern Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea of the northeastern Indian Ocean. The vertical distribution of temperature and ... -
Coastal management policy in India: A commentary
(TERI, New Delhi, 2001) -
Nitrous oxide emissions from the Arabian Sea: A synthesis
(European Geophysical Society, 2001)High-resolution (1 degree x 1 degree longitude) seasonal and annual nitrous oxide (N sub(2) O) concentration fields for the Arabian Sea surface layer using a database containing more than 2400 values measured between ... -
The oceanic fixed nitrogen and nitrous oxide budgets: Moving targets as we enter the anthropocene?
(Institut de Ciencies del Mar de Barcelona, 2001)New data forced to raise previous estimates of oceanic denitrification. The revised estimate of approx. 450 Tg N yr sup(-1) (Tg = 10 sup(12) g) produces an oceanic fixed N budget with a large deficit (approx. 200 Tg N yr ... -
Environmental impact assessment: A management tool to safeguard environment and case studies
(Central Institute of Fisheries Education, Mumbai, 2001) -
Response of the equatorial Pacific to chlorophyll pigment in a mixed layer isopycnal ocean general circulation model
(American Geophysical Union, 2001)The influence of phytoplankton on the upper ocean dynamics and thermodynamics in the equatorial Pacific is investigated using an isopycnal ocean general circulation model (OPYC) coupled with a mixed layer model and remotely ... -
Geochemistry of sediments
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 2001)Considering the potential of elemental data in marine sediments as diagnostic tools of various geological and oceanographic processes, sediment geochemical data from the Indian Ocean region has been reviewed in this article. ... -
Ferromanganese nodules and their associated sediments from the Central Indian Ocean Basin: Rare earth element geochemistry
(Taylor and Francis, 2001)The rare earth element (REE) distribution in nine deep-sea ferromanganese nodules and their associated siliceous sediments from the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) have been studied to elucidate the REE relationship among ... -
Isotopic studies of beach rock carbonates from Konkan, central west coast of India
(New Academic Publishers, Delhi, 2001)The beach rock carbonates from the 200 km long stretch from Guhagar in the north to Deogad in the south along the Konkan coast (Maharashtra, India) are studied for sup(14)C dating and sup(13)C : sup(12)C and sup(18)O : ... -
Seafloor spreading magnetic anomalies in the Enderby Basin, East Antarctic
(Elsevier, 2001)The timing of the early separation of India from the contiguous Antarctic-Australia is still an unresolved problem although it is well established that Antarctica and India formed a single Indo-Antarctic platform prior to ... -
Sediment redistribution during simulated benthic disturbance and its implications on deep seabed mining
(Pergamon, 2001)A benthic disturbance experiment was conducted in the Central Indian Basin to evaluate the possible effects of sediment redistribution on marine ecosystem during deep-sea mining. The analyses of disturbance features on the ... -
Indian Deep-sea Environment Experiment (INDEX): An appraisal
(Pergamon, 2001)Indian Deep-sea Environment Experiment (INDEX) is a multi-disciplinary study to establish baseline conditions and evaluate the possible impact of deep-seabed mining in Central Indian Basin. A disturbance was simulated to ... -
Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) studies for deep-sea mineral exploration in the Indian Ocean
(Geological Survey of India, 2001) -
Major, trace, and rare earth elements in the sediments of the Central Indian Ocean Basin: Their source and distribution
(Taylor and Francis, 2001)The distribution maps of elements show that highest concentrations of Mn, Cu, Ni, Zn, Co, and biogenic opal in the surface sediment occurs between 10 degrees S and 16 degrees S latitude, where diagenetic ferromanganese ...
