Influence of physical processes and freshwater discharge on the seasonality of phytoplankton regime in the Bay of Bengal
TL;DR: In this article, the seasonality of phytoplankton in the western and northern Bay of Bengal using shipboard data collected during three seasons as well as ocean colour imagery from OCTS and SeaWiFS was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Warming of the Eurasian Landmass Is Making the Arabian Sea More Productive

TL;DR: The recent trend of declining winter and spring snow cover over Eurasia is causing a land-ocean thermal gradient that is particularly favorable to stronger southwest (summer) monsoon winds as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The recent trend of declining winter and spring snow cover over Eurasia is causing a land-ocean thermal gradient that is particularly favorable to stronger southwest (summer) monsoon winds, raising the possibility that the current warming trend of the Eurasian landmass is making the Arabian Sea more productive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular-level changes of dissolved organic matter along the Amazon River-to-ocean continuum
Michael Seidel,Patricia L. Yager,Nicholas D. Ward,Edward J. Carpenter,Helga do Rosario Gomes,Alex V. Krusche,Jeffrey E. Richey,Thorsten Dittmar,Patricia M. Medeiros +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) along the Amazon River-to-ocean continuum from the lower mainstem at Obidos to the open ocean of the western tropical North Atlantic were explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Massive outbreaks of Noctiluca scintillans blooms in the Arabian Sea due to spread of hypoxia
Helga do Rosario Gomes,Joaquim I. Goes,S.G.P. Matondkar,Edward J. Buskey,Subhajit Basu,Sushma G. Parab,Prasad G. Thoppil +6 more
TL;DR: It is reported that these massive outbreaks of N. scintillans during winter are being facilitated by an unprecedented influx of oxygen deficient waters into the euphotic zone and by the extraordinary ability of its endosymbiont Pedinomonas noctilucae to fix carbon more efficiently than other phytoplankton under hypoxic conditions.
