Atmospheric dry deposition of inorganic and organic nitrogen to the Bay of Bengal: Impact of continental outflow
The continental outflow from south and south-east Asia, persisting during January to March,
dominates the widespread dispersal of pollutants over tropical Bay of Bengal. With a view to …

Impact of atmospheric dry deposition of nutrients on phytoplankton pigment composition and primary production in the coastal Bay of Bengal
Atmospheric deposition of pollutants decreases pH and increases the nutrient concentration
in the surface water. To examine its impact on coastal phytoplankton composition and …

Contribution of riverine dissolved inorganic nitrogen flux to new production in the coastal northern Indian Ocean: an assessment
Rivers are known to be one of the major sources of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) to the
coastal ocean and contribute to the primary productivity in the sunlit upper ocean. This study …
