Diagenesis and bioavailability of mercury in the contaminated sediments of Ulhas Estuary, India
(Elsevier, 2009)
Sequential extraction of Hg was performed in a core collected from intertidal area in Ulhas Estuary in order to characterize the downward distribution and diagenetic behavior of Hg in a polluted estuary. Concentration of ...
Potential diagenetic and detrital sources for calcareous sediments from the Carlsberg Ridge, Indian Ocean
(Current Science Association, 2009)
Six sediment cores from the Carlsberg Ridge (CR) were studied for elemental concentration, magnetic susceptibility (chi), grain size and clay mineral distribution, and sedimentation rate to decipher possible detrital and ...
Multidisciplinary investigations exploring indicators of gas hydrate occurrence in the Krishna–Godavari Basin offshore, east coast of India
(Springer, 2009)
Some main results of multidisciplinary investigations carried out within the framework of the Indian National Gas Hydrate Program in 2002–2003 in the Krishna–Godavari Basin offshore sector, east coast of India are reported, ...
Trace gases and CO sub(2) isotope records from Cabo de Rama, India
(Current Science Association, 2009)
Concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO sub(2)), methane (CH sub(4)), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrous oxide (N sub(2) O) and hydrogen (H sub(2)), and the stable carbon (delta sup(13) C- CO sub(2)) and oxygen ( delta sup(18) O ...
Post depositional memory record of mercury in sediment near effluent disposal site of a chlor-alkali plant in Thane Creek-Mumbai Harbour, India
(Taylor & Francis, 2009)
A mercury–cell chlor-alkali plant operating at Airoli (eastern bank of Thane Creek) for 40 years, caused widespread contamination of the surrounding environment. Untreated wastewater from the plant was discharged to Thane ...
Possible solar control on primary production along the Indian west coast on decadal to centennial timescale
(John Wiley, 2009)
Using multiple geochemical proxies including specific biomarkers (dinosterol, phytol, stigmasterol and beta-sitosterol) measured in a high-sedimentation rate core collected from the inner shelf (depth approx. 45 m) off Goa ...
A survey of perfluorinated compounds in surface water and biota including dolphins from the Ganges River and in other waterbodies in India
(Elsevier, 2009)
Despite the reports of the occurrence of perfluorochemicals (PFCs) in industrialized nations, information on PFCs in less industrialized countries is meager. In the present study, concentrations and profiles of PFCs were ...
