A review of the studies on pteropods from the northern Indian Ocean A review of the studies on pteropods of the northern Indian Ocean region with a report on the pteropods of Irrawaddy continental shelf off Myanmar (Burma)
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2007)
Ever since the Challenger Expedition the Indian Ocean pteropods have been recognized as important constituents of biogenic flux. Initially they were of interest only to biologists or the fishery departments and their ...
Role of 12 S mitochondrial gene on dimorphism and coiling direction in benthic foraminiferal species Pararotalia nipponica
(Gondwana Geological Society, 2003)
Despite the extensive use of foraminiferal proxies for paleoclimatic reconstructions, the question how and why morphologic variations of foraminifera are regulated by climatic changes remains a mystery. The answer to such ...
Life spans of planktonic foraminifers: New sight through sediment traps
(The Palaeontological Society of India, 2003)
Determinig the life spans of planktonic foraminifera is vital in view of their increasing use for palaeoclimtic studies. Till date all the estimates about life span of planktonic foraminifers are based on the extrapolation ...
Palaeoclimatic implications of size variation in Orbulina universa in a core from the North Indian Ocean
(Current Science Association, 1990)
Response of benthic foraminifera Rosalina leei to different temperature and salinity, under laboratory culture experiment
(Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2008)
Live specimens of benthic foraminiferal species Rosalina leei were subjected to a combination of temperature (25 degrees C, 30 degrees C and 35 degrees C) and salinity (25 ppt, 30 ppt, and 35 ppt) to assess its differential ...
Micropalaeontological proxies for understanding palaeoclimate
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2007)
Does temperature affect dimorphic reproduction in benthic foraminifera? A culture experiment on Rosalina leei
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2000)
The possible effects of environmental factors on the dimorphic mode of reproduction in benthic foraminifera have been reported in the literature. Published observations based on field samples have indicated an inverse ...
Application of foraminifers in ecotoxicology: Retrospect, perspect and prospect
(Elsevier, 2006)
In view of the extensive use of foraminifers for the pollution monitoring especially their unmatched utility in deciphering the temporal variation in the type and concentration of pollutants at a given location, the ...
Otoliths in continental shelf and slope surficial sediments off Saurashtra, Arabian Sea, India and their significance
(New Academic Publishers, Delhi, 2001)
Otoliths are a viable and underutlized paleoceanographic tool. In India a considerable amount of work has been done on otoliths of the fresh water fishes, however no significant report is available for marine otoliths. In ...
