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

Metal Contamination of Oman Sea Seaweed and Its Associated Public Health Risks
Biological Trace Element Research, 2021Oman Sea region is a major gateway for international and local shipping. Metal pollution of aquatic environment is primarily caused by such shipping and industrial activities. Agricultural runoffs are also of concern. Seaweed contamination with heavy metals in this area is therefore a distinct possibility.
