Databases
(Springer, 2005)Information on bibliographic as well as numeric/textual databases relevant to coastal geomorphology has been included in a tabular form. Databases cover a broad spectrum of related subjects like coastal environment and ... -
The nitrogen cycle in the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2005)Despite their importance for the global oceanic nitrogen (N) cycle, estimates of N fluxes in the Arabian Sea remain in considerable uncertainty. In this report, we summarize current knowledge of important processes, including ... -
Biogeochemical ocean-atmosphere transfers in the Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2005)Transfers of some important biogenic atmospheric constituents, carbon dioxide (CO sub (2)), methane (CH Sub (4)), molecular nitrogen (N sub (2)), nitrous oxide (N sub (2) O), nitrate NO super(-) sub (3) , ammonia (NH ... -
Partitioning and speciation of trace metal diagenesis in differing depositional environments in the sediments of the Oman margin
(Springer, 2005)Organic-rich sediment samples collected from a transect within, and below, the Oman Margin oxygen minimum zone (OMZ)were analysed using a sequential leaching technique to characterise the diagenetic behaviour and speciation ... -
Suspended sediment fluxes in a tropical estuary, west coast of India
(NCAOR, Goa, 2005)Annual transport processes of suspended sediments in Beypore estuary - a tropical estuary along the south west coast of India - were investigated based on time series measurements within the system. It's observed that the ... -
Groundwater chemistry of shallow aquifers in the coastal zones of Cochin, India
(Penkala Bt., 2005)The coastal aquifers of Kerala, India experience severe degradation of water quality due to various anthropogenic activities. An attempt is made here to study the groundwater chemistry of aquifers, which lie along the ... -

(Elsevier, 2005)Levels of heavy metals (Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn), organic carbon content and textural characteristics in the surficial sediments of Cochin estuary (SW coast of India) and adjacent coast are presented. ... -
Thraustochytrium gaertnerium sp. nov.: A new Thraustochytrid Stramenopilan protist from mangroves of Goa, India
(Elsevier, 2005)Thraustochytrids are ubiquitous, chemo-organotrophic, marine stramenipilan protists belonging to the class Labyrinthulomycetes. Their taxonomy is largely based on life cycle development stages. Described here is a new ... -
Benthic communities associated with ferromanganese nodules from the Central Indian Ocean
(Regional Research laboratory, Bhubaneswar, 2005)Micro- meio- and macrobenthic associations with Ferromanganese nodules collected from the Central Indian Ocean were evaluated. The area of nodules ranged from 13.58 to 21 cm super (2). The density of abyssal macrobenthos ... -
