Foraminiferal Constituent in Marine Sediments - A Parameter in some Coastal Engineering Problems
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1980)
Foraminifera, among other microorganisms, form a major constituent of marine sediments and their composition is directly related to the nature of the substrate in which they are entombed. Past and the present data indicate ...
Holocene planktonic foraminifera from the shelf sediments off Kerala Coast
(Geological Society of India, 1972)
Twenty-two planktonic foraminifers were identified from a few samples collected aboard INS KISTNA at 9~'N and 76~'E, at 89 metres depth from the bottom sediment-water interface. A few of the more characteristic features ...
Holocene benthonic foraminifera from the shelf sediments of Kerala coast
(Indian Society of Earth Scientists, 1974)
Of the 32 species of benthic foraminifera recovered here some show definite Indo-Pacific affinity. Ecological parameters which govern this offshore region are considered. Several species show similarities with those found ...
Foraminifera as climatic indicators in the sediments of Western Indian continental shelf
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1973)
Foraminifera are the single celled microscopic organisms found abundantly in the seas and oceans. The tests of these organisms are preserved in the present sediments of the ocean as in the past, sometimes constituting ...
Occurrence of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma new subspecies in the shelf-slope sediments of northern Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1977)
Specimens of @iNeogloboquadrina pachyderma@@ (Ehrenberg) which are considered to be typical bipolar, coolerwater species, are described in the recent shelf-slope sediments of the northern Indian Ocean as far north as 23~'N ...
Heavy mineral suite in the shelf sediments off Madras coast
(Indian Geophysical Union, 1972)
The heavy mineral suite of the shelf sediments of this area (12~'00': 13~'05'N and 80~'00': 80~'36'E), are characterised by a dominant group of minerals such as hornblende, augite, hypersthene, garnet and opaque minerals; ...
Clastic dike from Baga, Goa
(Current Science Association, 1972)
An uncommon feature of an occurrence of a clastic dike was noticed in Baga headland, Goa, India during the investigation carried out on the geological setting of Northern Goa Coast. Clastic dikes and related sills are ...
Distribution of iron, manganese, cobalt and nickel in sediment cores of the northeastern Arabian Sea
(Geological Society of India, 1976)
A study of the distribution of iron, manganese, cobalt and nickel in sediment cores from the shelf, slope and basin regions of Bombay-Kathiawar coast of India shows that cobalt and nickel are derived from the overlying sea ...
