Oil spill causes mass mortality of sea snakes in the Gulf of Oman

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
Oil spills in the marine environment inflict significant impacts on a wide diversity of marine fauna. Despite the abundance of literature describing these impacts on numerous species, no studies describe the impacts on sea snakes. In this study we report, for the first time, details of an oil spill which caused mass mortality of sea snakes.

Intraseasonal Variability of Sea Surface Temperature in the Sea of Oman and the Arabian Sea: Argo Study

Global Oceans 2020: Singapore – U.S. Gulf Coast, 2020
Sea surface temperature (SST) is a critical oceanic parameter used in most of the statistical and dynamic prediction models. In association with monsoon cycle, the SST exhibits large variability in the northwestern Indian Ocean both in space and time. The present study investigates the intraseasonal variability of SST influenced by the monsoon cycle in
