Trace element composition of size-fractionated suspended particulate matter samples from the Qatari Exclusive Economic Zone of the Arabian Gulf: the role of atmospheric dust
(
Copernicus Publications
, 2020 , Article)
We analyzed net-tow samples of natural assemblages
of plankton, and associated particulate matter, from
the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of Qatar in the Arabian
Gulf. Size-fractionated suspended particles were ...
Spatial variability of summer hydrography in the central Arabian Gulf
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
The Arabian Gulf is a very significant ocean body, which hosts more than 55% of the oil reserves of the world and produces about 30% of the total production, and thus, it is likely to face high risk and adverse problems ...
Role of shamal and easterly winds on the wave characteristics off Qatar, central Arabian Gulf
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Waves in the Arabian Gulf (Gulf) are dominated by shamal winds during winter and early summer. Although wave characteristics in the Gulf are broadly studied, features associated with various wind systems are not explicitly ...
Target gastropods for standardizing the monitoring of tar mat contamination in the Arabian Gulf
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
This study proposes a standardization process for the monitoring the level of tar mat contamination in the Arabian Gulf. In the study, we selected target gastropod species and evaluated the ecological and ecotoxicological ...

Chlorophyll-a concentrations in the Arabian Gulf waters of arid region: A case study from the northern coast of Qatar
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Remote sensing of spectrally active Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) in the gulf water of an arid region is important to understand the spatial and temporal variations of phytoplankton and biomass in the water. This study characterizes ...
Physical drivers of chlorophyll and nutrients variability in the Southern-Central Arabian Gulf
(
Academic Press
, 2023 , Article)
The southern-central Arabian Gulf demonstrates a poor understanding of nutrients and chlorophyll dynamics in physical-biogeochemical settings. Here, using data of chlorophyll, nutrients and hydrographic parameters collected ...
Seasonal variability of hydrography off the east coast of Qatar, central Arabian Gulf
(
Springer Nature
, 2022 , Article)
Seasonal variability of hydrography along a nearshore-offshore transect in the eastern part of the EEZ of Qatar has been analyzed using in situ measurements carried out during 5 different months. The study reveals distinct ...
Retrieval of suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in the Arabian Gulf water of arid region by Sentinel-2 data
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2023 , Article)
Suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in water increases temperature and turbidity, limits the photosynthesis of aquatic plants, and reduces biologically available oxygen. It is important to study SSC in the coastal waters ...
