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 ...
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 ...
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, ...
Marine magnetic profiles from the Direction Bank to the Kori Bank, Western Continental shelf of India
(Geological Society of India, 1986)
Total magnetic field intensity measurements along two parallel NW-SE tracks from the Direction Bank to the Kori Bank show corelatable magnetic anomalies. High frequency positive anomalies observed northwest of Kathiawar ...
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 ...
Distribution of Al, Mn, Ni, Co & Cu in the non-lithogenous fractions of sediments of the northern half of the western continental shelf of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1980)
Higher amounts of elements are associated with the nonlithogenous fractions of the fine grained terrigenous sediments of the innershelf region with low carbonate content than with the corresponding fractions of the coarse ...
