Abstract The Indian Ocean presents two distinct climate regimes. The north Indian Ocean is
dominated by the monsoons, whereas the seasonal reversal is less pronounced in the …

The Asian monsoons are triggered by complex interactions between the atmosphere, Asian
and African orography, and the surrounding oceans, resulting in highly seasonal climate …

Among the tropical oceans, the western Indian Ocean hosts one of the largest
concentrations of marine phytoplankton blooms in summer. Interestingly, this is also the …

Large-scale studies of ocean biogeochemistry and carbon cycling have often partitioned the
ocean into regions along lines of latitude and longitude despite the fact that spatially more …

Phytoplankton biomass exhibits substantial year-to-year changes, and understanding these
changes is crucial to fisheries management and projecting future climate. These annual …

Even though the seasonal pattern of phytoplankton biomass distribution in the seas around
India is reasonably well understood, there is relatively little information on phytoplankton …

Understanding marine predator distributions is an essential component of arresting their
catastrophic declines. 1, 2, 3, 4 In temperate, polar, and upwelling seas, predictable …

We conducted a regional tracking program on seabirds in order to identify major forging
hotspots and potential Marine Protected Areas in the tropical western Indian Ocean. Thirty …

Colonial animals experience density-dependent competition for food, which is posited to
influence foraging range and lead to inter-colony segregation. However, such patterns are …
