Reconstruction of late Quaternary monsoon oscillations based on clay mineral proxies using sediment cores from the western margin of India
(Elsevier, 2002)In order to reconstruct the variations in the intensity of summer monsoon precipitation during the late Quaternary, two sediment cores from the southwestern continental margin of India were studied for their clay mineral ... -
Mercury and lead tolerance in hypersaline sulfate-reducing bacteria
(Pergamon, 2002)Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) HSR 1, HSR 4, and HSR 14 isolated from the salt pans of Goa, India grew best at 90-100 ppt salinity on substrates like formate, acetate, lactate, butyrate, ethanol and benzoate. They were ... -
Analysis of freshwater flux climatology over the Indian Ocean using the HOAPS data
(Elsevier, 2002)Estimation of freshwater flux over a certain region is very difficult, as it needs both accurate evaporation and precipitation rates over the study area. Over the Indian Ocean (IO), the precipitation estimates are totally ... -

Entry of Vibrio harveyi and Vibrio fischeri into the viable but nonculturable state
(The Society for Applied Microbiology, 2002)Physical responses of marine luminous bacteria, Vibrio harveyi (ATCC 14216) and V. fischeri (UM1373) to nutrient-limited normal strength (35 ppt iso-osmolarity) and low (10 ppt hypo-osmolarity) salinity conditions were ... -
Marine environmental pollution stress detection through direct viable counts of bacteria
(Pergamon, 2002)Direct viable counts (DVC) of bacteria were quantified from polluted and relatively less/non-polluted coastal locations during different seasons to assess whether they can be routinely monitored for an understanding of ... -
Factors regulating the production of different inducers in Pseudomonas aeruginosa with reference to larval metamorphosis in Balanus amphitrite
(Inter-Research, 2002)Gregarious settlement in barnacles has been related to the settlement-inducing compounds from adult conspecifics, bacteria in the biofilms, and their interaction. Elucidation of larval settlement cues from these sources ... -
Estimation of sea surface salinity in the Bay of Bengal using Outgoing Longwave Radiation
(American Geophysical Union, 2002)A new technique for retrieval of sea surface salinity (SSS) from space-borne satellite measurements of Outgoing Longwave Radiation (OLR) through the 'Effective Oceanic Layer (EOL)' is explained in this paper. The OLR is ... -
Ocean energy conversion - A reality
(The Pennsylvania Academy of Science; Easton, PA; USA, 2002)This chapter presents an overview of ocean energy conversion in respect of its significance as the renewable energy resources. It deals with the thermodynamic principles relating to ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC). ... -
Marine toxins and their toxicological significance: An overview
(The Pennsylvania Academy of Science; Easton, PA; USA, 2002)This article presents an overview of various types of marine toxins and their toxicological significance in the context of biotechnological research and development. The characteristics and toxic potentials of different ... -
Population characteristics of the mangrove clam Polymesoda (geloina) erosa (solander, 1786) in the Chorao mangrove, Goa
(Indian Council of Agricultural Research; Old Goa; India, 2002)Mangroves are the tropical and sub tropical coastal and/or estuarine intertidal or island plant communities. Since the early history of mankind, mangrove ecosystems have played important role in the socio-economic development ... -
Scenario of gas-charged sediments and gas hydrates in the western continental margin of India
(Indian Geophysical Union, 2002)Echosounding, high-resolution shallow seismic data were collected along track lines spaced at 20 km interval across the western continental margin of India. A detailed analysis of the underway data revealed the occurrence ... -
Impact of predation by Ostracion immaculatus (Pisces: Ostraciidae) on the macrofouling community structure in Kanayama Bay, Kii Peninsula (Japan)
(Seto Marine Biological Laboratory, 2002)An investigation on the impact of predation by Ostracion immaculatus on fouling community structure in Kanayama Bay, Kii Peninsula, Japan was undertaken from April 1994 to February 1995. Caging experiments with three size ... -
Macrofouling community structure in Kanayama Bay, Kii Peninsula (Japan)
(Seto Marine Biological Laboratory, 2002)An investigation on the macrofouling community in Kanayama Bay, Kill Peninsula, Japan was undertaken from June 1994 to May 1995 by exposing fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) panels at subsurface and bottom (2.2 m) depths. The ... -
First results of Indian - Current meter moorings along The equator: Vertical current structure variability at equator, 93 degrees E during February-December, 2000
(PORSEC 2002 Secretariat; Bogor; Indonesia, 2002)The first results of time-series current data obtained from 6 levels at equator, 93 degrees E in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean during February-December 2000 are analyzed. The top RCM was located at 135m. The mean ... -
