Phosphorus retention capacity of sediments in Mandovi estuary (Goa)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)Experiments carried out under controlled conditions to study P retention capacity of sediments indicate that the processes of adsorption and desorption of P are pH dependent. Adsorption of P is maximum (58-99%) at pH 4. ... -
Summer cooling in the east central Arabian Sea - a process of dynamic response to the southwest monsoon
(India Meteorological Department, 1984)The cooling of the east central Arabian Sea during summer monsoon season is examined using data sets of MONEX '79 and MONSOON '77 programmes. These studies have revealed that downward transfer of heat due to the mixing of ... -
Effects of freshwater stratification on nutrients, dissolved oxygen, and phytoplankton in the Bay of Bengal
(The Oceanography Society, 2016)The Bay of Bengal (BoB) is strongly density stratified due to large freshwater input from various rivers and heavy precipitation. This strong vertical stratification, along with physical processes, regulates the transport ... -
Prediction of daily sea surface temperature using artificial neural networks
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)We present an artificial neural network model to predict the sea surface temperature (SST) and delineate SST fronts in the northe-astern Arabian Sea. The predictions are made one day in advance, using current days SST for ... -
Refinement of Miocene sea level and monsoon events from the sedimentary archive of the Maldives (Indian Ocean)
(Springer, 2018)International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 359 cored sediments from eight borehole locations in the carbonate platform of the Maldives in the Indian Ocean. The expedition set out to unravel the timing of Neogene ... -
A modeling study of processes controlling the Bay of Bengal sea surface salinity interannual variability
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2016)Recent observational studies provided preliminary insights on the interannual variability of Bay of Bengal (BoB) Sea Surface Salinity (SSS), but are limited by the poor data coverage. Here, we describe the BoB interannual ... -
Genetic and ecophysiological traits of Synechococcus strains isolated from coastal and open ocean waters of Arabian Sea
(Oxford University Press, 2016)The picocyanobacterium Synechococcus is a prominent primary producer in the marine environment. The marine Synechococcus strains are clustered into different clades representing ecologically distinct genotypes. In this ... -
Mitochondrial DNA variation and phylogenetic relationships among five tuna species based on sequencing of D-loop region
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)In order to assess the DNA sequence variation and phylogenetic relationship among five tuna species (Auxis thazard, Euthynnus affinis, Katsuwonus pelamis, Thunnus tonggol, and T. albacares) out of all four tuna genera, ... -
Colletotrichum systematics: Past, present and prospects
(Guizhou Academy of Agricultural Sciences, 2016)Colletotrichum is one of the serious plant pathogens, with worldwide distribution, causing anthracnose in economically important crops. Every year many research papers and reports are published on Colletotrichum phylogeny ... -
Formation Mechanism of Mud Bank Along the Southwest Coast of India
(Springer, 2018)Mud bank formation during the southwest monsoon along the southwest coast of India remains an enigma to the researchers and coastal community in spite of several earlier studies. The present study attempts to unravel the ... -
Long-Term Variability of the Wind Field over the Indian Ocean Based on ERA-Interim Reanalysis
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)A detailed study of long-term variability of winds using 30 years of data from the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts global reanalysis (ERA-Interim) over the Indian Ocean has been carried out by partitioning ... -
Observational insights into chlorophyll distributions of subtropical South Indian Ocean eddies
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017)The South Indian Ocean subtropical gyre has been described as a unique environment where anticyclonic ocean eddies highlight enhanced surface chlorophyll in winter. The processes responsible for this chlorophyll increase ... -
Chemical composition and provenance of Chinese porcelain shards recovered from Old Goa, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)During recent archaeological explorations at Old Goa, west coast of India, twenty three Chinese porcelain shards of the Ming (Middle to late 16th century), Qing (17th century) and late Qing period (late 17th century) have ... -
Synthesis of Push-Pull Phenazines Possessing pH-Responsive Absorption Spectra and their Application in Selective Detection of Fe3+ Ions and Aromatics
(Georg Thieme Verlag, 2018)Phenazines bearing electron-donor and electron-acceptor groups with high pH-sensing behavior were synthesized in moderate to good yields. Theoretical calculations on the frontier molecular orbitals and experimental oxidation ... -
Polychaete community of a marine protected area along the west coast of India- Prior and post the tropical cyclone Phyan
(Public Library of Science, 2016)Tropical cyclones are extreme random meteorological events that can have profound implications to coastal biodiversities. Given that the frequency, intensity and duration of these events are poised to increase due to the ... -
Influence of spectral wavelength and N:P ratio on the cell cycle of Synechococcus strain CSIRNIO1 isolated from the central Eastern Arabian Sea
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)The novel phycoerythrin-containing Synechococcus strain CSIRNIO1 belonging to phylogenetic clade II was isolated from the coastal Arabian Sea. Chromophore characteristics of this isolate revealed the presence of phycoerythrin ... -
Multigene DNA barcodes of Indian strain Labidocera acuta (Calanoida: Copepoda)
(CSIR, India, 2016)The present study was performed to establish the multigene DNA barcodes of Labidocera acuta (collected from Parangipettai, India) and to describe their genetic divergence and phylogenetic relatedness with other related ... -
Novel Conopeptides of Largely Unexplored Indo Pacific Conus sp.
(MDPI AG, Switzerland, 2016)Cone snails are predatory creatures using venom as a weapon for prey capture and defense. Since this venom is neurotoxic, the venom gland is considered as an enormous collection of pharmacologically interesting compounds ... -
Global impact of tropical cyclones on primary production
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2016)In this paper, we explore the global responses of surface temperature, chlorophyll, and primary production to tropical cyclones (TCs). Those ocean responses are first characterized from the statistical analysis of satellite ... -
Further Insights on the Influence of the Indian Ocean Dipole on the Following Year's ENSO from Observations and CMIP5 Models
(American Meteorological Society, 2016)Recent observational studies have suggested that negative and positive Indian Ocean dipole (IOD) events (nIOD and pIOD, respectively) favor a transition toward, respectively, El Niño and La Niña events one year later. ...
