Mesoscale and Submesoscale Variability in the Indian Ocean

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Material transport and air‐sea coupling dynamics associated with monsoon‐related mesoscale and submesoscale processes in the Indian Ocean significantly modulate biogeochemical cycles, the large‐scale energy balance, and both regional and global climate change.

Wooden Panel Deterioration by Tropical Marine Wood Borers

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 1996
Wood destruction in test panels ofShorea leprosulawas related to the percentage of fouling, types of wood borers and the number of wood borers. The natural durability ofShorea leprosulapanels was estimated to be 4–5 months in Malaysian marine waters. A higher fouling cover resulted in lower rates of wooden panel deterioration.

MARINE BORER ALDEHYDE OXIDASE

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1965
A very active and specific enzyme, aldehyde oxidase, has been demonstrated and partially purified from the digestive tract of the marine borer, Bankia setacea (Tryon). In the presence of the enzyme, the substrate vanillin was oxidized to vanillic acid with the simultaneous reduction of oxygen, cytochrome c, 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol, or methylene ...

MARINE BORER STUDIES: EVALUATION OF TOXICANTS

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1955
Of 115 compounds tested for toxicity to adult Bankia setacea imbedded in wooden blocks, the most toxic was sodium arsenite, which gave a complete kill at 25 p.p.m. (as arsenic trioxide) after 18 hr. exposure. The relative toxicity of chemically pure sodium arsenite and various commercial concentrates to Bankia setacea was measured.

HARBOR SCREENING TESTS OF MARINE BORER INHIBITORS - III.

1961
The Naval Civil Engineering Laboratory is exposing wood panels impregnated with various materials to determine the resistance of these panels to attack by marine borers. The report lists the results of harbor tests of treated panels removed from exposure between 15 February 1967 and 15 November 1968.

Wood Deterioration by Marine Borers

2020
Cultural Heritage wood exposed in saline and brackish waters may be subjected to severe damage by marine borers in a relatively short time compared to fungi and bacteria. This chapter discusses the wood-boring molluscan families Teredinidae, Pholadidae and Xylophagaidae and the crustacean families Limnoriidae, Sphaeromatidae and Cheluridae.

Control of Marine Borers in Plywood

Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1947
Abstract This series of tests on plywood veneers was originally prepared for company use to assist the war effort on a confidential basis, which has now been removed. The results indicate that the addition of a siliceous extender to the adhesive used in bonding the plywood prevents the penetration beyond the first veneer of Limnoria ...

Survey of Marine Borers in Canadian Atlantic Waters

Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada, 1970
A survey of the maritime waters of Canada's Atlantic provinces disclosed only the teredine borer Teredo navalis and the limnorial borer Limnoria lignorum. The distribution of L. lignorum was virtually ubiquitous, whereas T. navalis was confined to areas where water temperatures exceeded 15–16 C for some period of the year.
