Manganese in the shelf sediments off the west coast of India
(Current Science Association, 1968)
The distribution pattern of manganese in the marine sediments of the west coast of India was studied in relation to the source and environmental factors. The progressive decrease in the manganese content of the sediments ...
Mineralogy of the carbonate sediments - western continental shelf of India
(Elsevier, 1981)
An X-ray diffraction study of forty-six sediment samples and three oolitic limestone samples from the western continental shelf of India shows that aragonite is the dominant carbonate mineral (99% maximum), followed by ...
Sediment depositional environment in some bays in Central west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Sediments in Kalbadevi and Mirya Bays are well sorted while those in Ratnagiri Bay are poorly sorted. Mean size of the sediments varies among the bays. Sediments in Kalbadevi Bay are both positively and negatively skewed ...
Beach processes between Mulgund and Shiroda, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1994)
Study on beach processes for an year shows seasonal changes without annual net erosion. The beaches are stable and regain the maximum profiles during February to April. Distribution of longshore current direction is not ...
Response of Barrier beaches along the southwest coast of India to monsoonal forcing
(Tirunelveli: JCSONLINE, 1987)
The response of a small stretch of barrier beach along the southern part of the west coast of India to the southwest wind and wave climates showed wide variations when examined through empirical Eigen function analysis. ...
Distribution of phosphorus and phosphatisation along the western continental margin of India
(Geological Society of India, 1987)
Phosphate content in the bulk sediments range from 0.02 to 2.17% and on carbonate free basis it varies from 0.03 to 6.5%. The partition studies indicate that contribution from the acid resistant detrital minerals (HCl ...
Geophysical and geological surveys along the northeastern flank of Mount error, Northwestern Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 1987)
Bathymetry, multichannel continuous seismic reflection, magnetic and gravity surveys and sampling were carried out over Mount Error in the northwestern Indian Ocean and along the northeastern flank of the seamount, to study ...
Metal distribution in Halophila beccarii (Aschers) and sorrounding environment along the central west coast of India
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)
Halophila beccarii (Aschers), the surrounding water and the sediments showed varying concentrations of Na, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Cu, Ni, Sr and Li at different localities along central west coast of India. Iron was found to ...
Heavy minerals in the sediments on the outer continental shelf between Vengurla and Mangalore on the west coast of India
(Geological Society of India, 1981)
Fifty-eight sediment samples from the outer continental shelf between Vengurla and Mangalore were analysed for heavy minerals consist of principally opaques, hornblende, epidote, garnet, sillimanite, hypersthene and zircon, ...
Acoustic masking in sediments due to gases on the western continental shelf of India
(Elsevier, 1981)
Surveys carried out on the western continental shelf of India indicate that the inner and middle shelf to a depth of 50-60 m is covered by acoustically transparent clays. On the shelf off Bombay, the clays are thin near ...
