Now at S405a (#AGU22) - Central University of #Kerala Ph.D. student, Ammoose Jayan (also currently a Fulbright visitor at the #UniversityOfArizona), talks about #paleoceanography investigations in the Gulf of #Mannar (#IndianOcean) focusing on paleoproductivity changes across the late Holocene using #planktic #foraminifera. Main result: lower productivity in Gulf of Mannar along with a relatively weaker #Indian summer #monsoon winds during the Little Ice Age (#LIA), some ~500-700 years ago.
I wonder about the potential impact on coastal southern Indian societies & seafood intake during the time!

Magical #Mannar and #Thalaimannar this past week. Love going here once a year during the migratory season. It never disappoints. Thousands of gulls and terns by Adams Bridge (1/3)
