Climatic aridity over India 11,000 years ago: Evidence from feldspar distribution in shelf sediments
(Elsevier, 1986)
Feldspars and quartz contents of sand and silt fractions of forty three samples from the western continental shelf of India were determined by the X-ray diffraction method. The results indicate that the feldspar content ...
Lack of cross-shelf transport of sediments on the western margin of India: Evidence from clay mineralogy
(Tirunelveli: JCSONLINE, 1989)
The distribution of clay minerals on the inner shelf, outer shelf and in a 6 month sediment trap on the western continental shelf of India has been studied. Marked compositional differences in the inner shelf clays ...
Cyclicity in monsoon
(Indian Institute of Sciences, 1989)
Clay mineral distribution on tropical shelf: an example from the western shelf of India
(Indian Association of Sedimentology, 1989)
Seventy-five sediment samples collected from the Kerala continental shelf and slope during the 17th and 71st Cruises of RV Gaveshani were analysed by X-ray diffraction for clay mineral content. The distribution of total ...
Microbial origin of the phosphorites of the western continental shelf of India
(Elsevier, 1988)
Phosphatised algal nodules were recovered by dredging from the western continental shelf off Goa at depths ranging from 70 to 150 m. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis indicates that the phosphorus present in the algal nodules ...
Dynamic tidal barrier of Gulf of Kutch and its relevance to the submergence of ancient Dwarka
(Goa: National Institute of Oceanography, 1988)
Clay mineral distribution on the Kerala continental shelf and slope
(Geological Society of India, 1983)
Seventy-five sediment samples collected from the Kerala continental shelf and slope during the 17th and 71st Cruises of @iRV gaveshani@@ were analysed by X-ray diffraction for clay mineral cntent. The distribution of total ...
Mining of phosphorite resources from the Indian continental shelf will help food production
(Books & Journals Private Ltd., 1983)
Phosphate is used as a plant nutrient in fertilisers The main sources of phosphate are phosphatic rocks The National Institute of Oceanography had conducted a phosphate exploration programme on the continental shelf of ...
Carbonate mineralogy and faunal relationship in tropical shallow water marine sediments: Cape Comorin, India
(Elsevier, 1982)
The carbonate mineralogy of Recent sediments from the western and eastern continental shelves around Cape Comorin off the southern tip of India was determined by X-ray diffraction analyses. The results show that in the ...
