Submarine silicic volcanism: Processes and products
(Indian Society for Earth, Planetary and Environmental Sciences (ISEPES), Odisha, 2012)
The occurrence of submarine silicic volcanics is rare at the mid-oceanic ridges, abyssal depths, seamounts and fracture zones. Hydrothermal processes are active in submarine silicic environments and are associated with ...
Relationship of sediment-biochemistry, bacterial morphology, and activity to geotechnical properties in the central Indian Basin
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
Distribution of biochemical properties, morphological and functional characteristics of bacteria in the extreme sedimentary environment of the Central Indian Basin (CIB) was examined in relation to geotechnical properties ...
Environmental isotopes to test hypotheses for fluid mud (mud bank) generation mechanisms along the southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2015)
Occurrence of fluid mud (mud banks) in the southwest coast of India is an enigma for the scientific community. Over the years, several multi-disciplinary studies were conducted and various hypotheses were postulated on the ...
Characteristics of shallow water waves off the central west coast of India before, during and after the onset of the Indian summer monsoon
(Elsevier, 2015)
We studied the wave characteristics before, during and after the onset of the Indian summer monsoon based on data measured using the buoy moored at 3 locations off the central west coast of India. The study reveals the ...
Crustal structure and rift tectonics across the Cauvery–Palar basin, eastern continental margin of India based on seismic and potential field modelling
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2016)
The Cauvery–Palar basin is a major peri-cratonic rift basin located along the Eastern Continental Margin of India (ECMI) that had formed during the rift-drift events associated with the breakup of eastern Gondwanaland ...
Geochemical characteristics of gold bearing boninites and banded iron formations from Shimoga greenstone belt, India: Implications for gold genesis and hydrothermal processes in diverse tectonic settings
(Elsevier, 2016)
This paper is the first documentation of boninites from the Kudrekonda Formation of Shimoga greenstone belt (SGB) in western Dharwar Craton (WDC), India and the occurrence of native gold in the associated quartz veins. We ...
Evaluation of the influence of monsoon climatology on dispersal and sequestration of continental flux over the southeastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2016)
Associated with the coupled land–ocean heating–cooling, seasonal reversal of monsoon winds regulates hydrography, precipitation, upwelling, fluvial influx and a host of biogeochemical processes. We evaluate the role of the ...
Mineral chemistry and alteration characteristics of spinel in serpentinised peridotites from the northern central Indian Ridge
(Geological Society of India, 2015)
Serpentinites (frequently cross cut by gabbroic dikelet), collected from Northern Central Indian Ridge (NCIR), Indian Ocean, contain both Cr-rich (Group I) and Cr-poor (Group II) variety of spinel. Based on mineralogy they ...
Major, trace and platinum group element (PGE) geochemistry of Archean Iron Ore Group and Proterozoic Malangtoli metavolcanic rocks of Singhbhum Craton, Eastern India: Inferences on mantle melting and sulphur saturation history
(Elsevier, 2016)
The geological and metallogenic history of the Singhbhum Craton of eastern India is marked by several episodes of volcanism, plutonism, sedimentation and mineralization spanning from Paleoarchean to Mesoproterozoic in a ...
Morphotectonic and petrological variations along the southern Central Indian Ridge
(Springer, 2016)
In order to ascertain the effect of geomorphic and tectonic domains on the formation, enrichment, and ascension of the ridge axis melt, structural and petrological data from a nearly 300-km-long axial stretch along the ...
