Can bathymetry be a discriminatory factor for the distribution of benthic foraminiferal morpho-groups in modern marine sediments?
(ONGC, India, 2000)
The foraminiferal content of one hundred eight modern marine sediment samples off Vengurla-Cochin sector (ranging in water depth from 30 to 1330 m). West Coast of India was studied. A total of two hundred four foraminiferal ...
Revealing monsoonal variability of the last 2,500 years over India using sedimentological and foraminiferal proxies
(Springer-Verlag, 2008)
A 2-m-long, shallow-water sediment core, representing the last 2,500 years, collected from the tropical Arabian Sea from the inner shelf (22 m water depth) off Karwar (Karnataka, India) near the mouth of the Kali River, ...
Laboratory experiment to record rate of movement of cultured benthic foraminifera
(ONGC, India, 2000)
Sensitivity of foraminifera towards environmental / climatic changes, makes them a distinct proxy of paleoclimatic conditions. In order to use these micro organisms for paleoclimatic reconstruction, their response in the ...
Preliminary report on the study of benthic foraminiferal content in the marine sediment of Queen Maud Land Shelf, Lazarev Sea, Antarctic
(ONGC, India, 2000)
During the 4th and 6th Indian Expedition to Antarctica, surface sediment samples were collected from eight stations in the Queen Maud Land Shelf, Lazarev Sea from the depth ranging from 157 to 785 m. The mean biomass of ...
Ecological response of foraminiferal component in the sediments of Kharo Creek, Kachchh (Gujarat), west coast of India
(ONGC, India, 2000)
A total of seven surface sediment samples collected within 4.4 m to 13.9 m water depth (below chart datum) from Kharo Creek were studied for their foraminiferal content. The study reveals forty seven foraminiferal species ...
Can the possibility of some linkage of monsoonal precipitation with solar variability be ignored? Indications from foraminiferal proxy records
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Foraminiferal studies on a shallow water sediment core off Karwar, central west coast of India have revealed significant changes in the monsoonal precipitation during the last around 720 years. The results hint towards ...
