A new spectrofluorometric method for the determination of total arsenic in sediments and its application to kinetic speciation
(Taylor & Francis, 2012)
A simple and sensitive spectrofluorometric method has been developed for the determination of arsenic (As) using rhodamine-B as a fluorescent agent. This method is based on the reaction of As(III) with potassium iodate ...
Sediment Oxygen Demand in Cochin backwaters, a tropical estuarine system in the south-west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2012)
Eutrophication has often been one of the major problems encountered in estuaries and coastal waters. The oxic/anoxic status of an estuary can be effectively determined by measurement of the Sediment Oxygen Demand (SOD). ...
Organic enrichment and benthic fauna–Some ecological consideration.
(NISCAIR, 2014)
In the present study, synoptic data on the structure of macroinfauna and total organic content of sediment collected from different sources were analyzed to look for patterns of association consistent with conceptual model ...
Phosphorite concretions in a sediment core from a bathymetric high off Goa, western continental margin of India
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
A sediment core collected from a bathymetric high off Goa on the western continental margin of India, has yielded phosphorite concretions with an average Pd2O5 content of 32.75%, the P2O5 concentrations being highest ever ...
Estimation of mean grain size of seafloor sediments using neural network
(Springer, 2012)
The feasibility of an artificial neural network based approach is investigated to estimate the values of mean grain size of seafloor sediments using four dominant echo features, extracted from acoustic backscatter data. ...
Seismic characterization of hydrates in faulted, fine-grained sediments of Krishna-Godavari basin: Unified imaging
(American Geophysical Union, 2012)
A combination of diffusion and advection in fine grained sediments can create a patchy Bottom Simulating Reflector (BSR) which has little to no apparent correlation with the overlying hydrate distribution. Using 2D seismic ...
Salinity-induced survival strategy of Vibrio cholerae associated with copepods in Cochin backwaters
(Elsevier, 2006)
The occurrence of Vibrio cholerae in water, sediment and copepods was studied over a wide range of salinity using conventional and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques in the Cochin backwaters. V. cholerae occurred ...
A note on geochemistry of surface sediments from Krishna-Godavari basin, East Coast of India
(The Geological Society of India, 2008)
A closely spaced 75 surface sediments drawn from ‘Gas Hydrate` Project taken up by National Institute of Oceanography on a regional scale from the Krishna-Godavari Basin (Latitude I5 degrees 35 minutes to 16 degrees 20 ...
Onset of industrial pollution recorded in Mumbai mudflat sediments, using integrated magnetic, Chemical, sup(210) Pb dating, and microscopic methods
(American Chemical Society, 2011)
The onset and rise of urban and industrial pollution in the Mumbai region was reconstructed from an anthropogenically contaminated mudflat sediment profile from the adjacent Thane creek using magnetic parameters, polycyclic ...
Microscale response of sediment variables to benthic disturbance in the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Taylor and Francis, 2000)
The response of sediment bacteria and biochemical variables to benthic disturbance was investigated in the Central Indian Ocean Basin from cores at nine stations. Generally, bacterial density and biochemical variables ...
