A multi-method approach for the study of lanthanum speciation in coastal and estuarine sediments
(Elsevier, 2011)
Two independent analytical methods (sequential extraction and kinetic extraction methods) were applied in order to understand the distribution and speciation of La in the coastal and estuarine sediments from the central ...
Distribution of biochemical constituents in the surface sediments of western coastal Bay of Bengal: Influence of river discharge and water column properties
(Springer, 2013)
Biochemical composition of surface sediment samples from off major and minor rivers along the east coast of India revealed that spatial distribution of sediment organic carbon (SOC) composition was mainly governed by ...
Sediment dispersal in the macro tidal Gulf of Kachchh, India
(NIO, Dona Paula, Goa (India), 2000)
Studies of sub-bottom physiography, tidal parameters and characteristics of the sediment in the Gulf of Kachchh have been made. The tidal range becomes progressively higher in the inner gulf with associated high magnitude ...
Petroleum hydrocarbon residues in the marine environment of Bassein-Mumbai
(Elsevier, 2004)
The paper reports PHc contamination in water, sediment and biota of the coastal area of Bassein-Mumbai in relation to relatively less polluted sites (Dabhol and Ratnagiri, Maharashtra) off the west coast of India. To ...
Response of sedimentary nucleic acids to benthic disturbance in the Central Indian Basin
(Taylor and Francis, 2005)
Information on the response of nucleic acids (i.e., DNA and RNA) to simulated benthic disturbance was obtained from samples collected from eight sediment cores (0-10 cm) located in the Central Indian Basin (CIB). In general ...
Productivity fluctuations in the southeastern Arabian Sea during the last 140 ka
(Elsevier, 2003)
Detailed analyses of multiple geochemical productivity proxies such as calcium carbonate, biogenic opal, biogenic Ba, organic carbon and total nitrogen have been carried out on a sediment core from the southeastern Arabian ...
Response of infaunal macrobenthos to the sediment granulometry in a tropical continental margine southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2008)
Surficial sediment samples, collected from the continental margin of the southwest coast of India in July 2004, were examined for the grain size and soft-bottom macrobenthic fauna, to understand the sediment granulometry ...
Textural characteristics of foreshore sediments along Karnataka shoreline, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2011)
Grain character analysis of beach sediments along three selected beaches (Pavinkurve, Kundapura and Padukare) of Karnataka coast, west coast of India is carried out to identify the textural behavior of beach sediments ...
Study of sub-surface sediments from northern Indian Ocean: Oceanic responses to climatic changes
(Palaeontol. Soc. India, 1994)
The mean diameter and variation in isotopic composition (delta sup(18)) in thest of Orbulina universa d'Orbigny have been measured in a sediment core collected from 3869 m water depth near the Carlsberg Ridge, northern ...
Glacial to Holocene fluctuations in hydrography and productivity along the southwestern continental margin of India
(Elsevier, 2001)
Oxygen isotope and sedimentological records of a sediment core from the southwestern continental margin of India are used to reconstruct the fluctuations in sea surface hydrography and productivity during the last deglaciation. ...
