Total mercury in water, sediments, and animals along the Indian Coast
(Elsevier, 1988)
Total mercury (Hg) in water, sediments and animals along the coast of India is estimated. Water samples were collected on board of R.V. Gaveshani.The zooplankton samples were collected by Indian Ocean Standard Net and Heron ...
Radiolarian zonation and volcanic ash layers in two Quaternary sediment cores from the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Palaeontological Society of India, 1988)
Radiolarian abundance in two Quaternary sediment cores, collected from the Central Indian Basin, was studied and Nigrini's (1971) and Goll's (1980) zones are recognised. New radiolarian zones Collosphaera orthoconus, ...
MT Lajpatrai blow-out studies at Bombay harbour
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1988)
The area around the tanker MT Lajpatrai was monitored for oil pollution studies. Measurements were carried out on the concentration of petroleum hydrocarbons in water and sediment samples along with visual observations on ...
Chlorinated pesticide residues in marine sediments
(Elsevier, 1988)
A number of organochlorine pesticides residues, aldrine, gamma BHC, dieldrine, and DDT were detected and quantified from the marine sediments collected along the east coast of India by gas chromatography using an electron ...
DDT residues in sediments from the Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 1988)
DDT is one of the organochlorine compounds characterised by its stability for long periods in the environment leading to marked changes in the aquatic ecosystem. This work aims to assess the prevailing levels of DDT and ...
Sediment boron and its relation to sediment properties in a tropical estuary
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1988)
Boron in the sediments of Mandovi estuary varied from 8.0 to 258.0 ppm with an average of 118 ppm. It showed an inverse relation to the texture of sediments and was found to be concentrated in silt and clay fraction with ...
Clay sediment accumulation rates on the monsoon-dominated western continental shelf and slope region of India
(Elsevier, 1988)
Clay accumulation rates shown in sediment cores from the nearshore to outer continental shelf and slope regions in water depths of 10-1246 m on the western continental margins of India were determined by the 210Pb dating ...
Heavy metals in Mindhola river estuary, India
(Elsevier, 1988)
The heavy metal concentrations are studied along the Mindhola river estuary. Surface and bottom water samples were collected using Niskin Sampler. The sediment samples were collected using a Van Veen grab. The heavy metal ...
