Relationship between benthic foraminifera and sediment in the estuarine complex of Goa
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1980)
Two indices of community association were used to elucidate the relationship between changes in species composition of benthic foraminifera and changes in the grain size composition of the sediment in estuarine complex of ...
Foraminiferal assemblages and their use as indicators of sediments movement: a study in the shelf region off Navapur, India
(Elsevier, 1986)
Factor analysis of 60 species of foraminifera from 13 stations off Navapur, reveals three major assemblages - Ammonia annectens, Ammonia papillosus-Asterorotalia dentata and Ammobaculites persicus assemblages. These ...
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 ...
Living benthonic foraminifera in a tidal environment: Gulf of Khambhat (India)
(Elsevier, 1984)
Living benthonic foraminifera from the top one centimeter layer from 23 surface sediment samples have been studied. Samples were collected from the tidally affected inner shelf off the Daman Bombay sector of the Arabian ...
Ooid turbidites from the Central Western continental margin of India
(Springer, 1989)
Gravity displaced debris flows/turbidites have been observed in five box cores collected between water depths of 649 and 3,627 m from the Central Western continental margin of India. Studies on grain size, carbonate content, ...
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 ...
Sediments of the western continental shelf of India - Environmental significance
(Geological Society of India, 1979)
The degree of fragmentation and colour of the skeletal fragments, colouration in benthic foraminifers have been studied in surficial sediment samples collected from forty stations from the continental shelf region between ...
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 ...
