Lime muds and their genesis off-Northwestern India during the late Quaternary
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2012)
Two sediment types were found in five gravity cores collected from water depths between 56 m and 121 m along the northwestern continental margin of India. lime mud was abundant in the lower section while siliciclastic ...
Fluctuations in productivity and denitrification in the southeastern Arabian Sea during the Late Quaternary
(Current Science Association, 2010)
Sedimentological and stable isotopic characteristics of sediments have been studied in a core from the southeastern Arabian Sea containing records of the past 70 ka. Palaeoproductivity proxies such as organic carbon (C ...
Variation in the Indian summer monsoon intensity during the Bolling-Allerod and Holocene
(American Geophysical Union, 2013)
Variations in the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) intensity during the last 16.7 ka have been studied using organic carbon (C<sub>org</sub>), delta <sup>15</sup>N of sedimentary organic matter, CaCO<sub>3</sub>, sediment ...
Understanding our seas: National Institute of Oceanography, Goa
(Current Science Association, 2015)
The present article summarizes the research done at the CSIR–National Institute of Oceanography in 2014 in ocean science, resources and technology. Significant research has been conducted on air–sea interactions and coastal ...
Mineralogy and Sr–Nd isotopes of SPM and sediment from the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries: Influence of weathering and anthropogenic contribution
(Elsevier, 2015)
Clay minerals and Sr–Nd isotopes of suspended particulate matter (SPM) and bottom sediment were investigated along transect stations of the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, western India to determine the provenance and role ...
Variations in Denitrification and Ventilation Within the Arabian Sea Oxygen Minimum Zone During the Holocene
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)
The continental slope of India is exposed to an intense perennial oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) supporting pelagic denitrification. Sediments that are presently in contact with the lower boundary of the denitrification zone ...
Controls on organic matter distribution in oxygen minimum zone sediments from the continental slope off western India
(Elsevier B.V., 2020)
The causes of organic-rich sediments in contact with the perennial oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) on the continental slope off western India have been debated extensively, largely in relation to two main controlling factors: ...
Suspended matter and fluid mud off Alleppey, southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)
Time series measurements on suspended particulate matter (SPM) were made at one non-mud bank (M1) and two mud bank stations (M2 and M3) off Alleppey, south west coast of India. The mean SPM was low in surface (6.2 mg/l) ...
