Aeolian deposition of Arabia and Somalia sediments on the southwestern continental margin of India
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
Kaolinite, smectite, illite and chlorite as major clay minerals and palygorskite and gibbsite in minor quantities have been recorded from the slope of southwestern continental margin of India. Contribution of kaolinite, ...
Seasonal changes of the sediment size distribution and stability along the beaches of Kerala, south west coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1996)
Mean grain size distribution under different environmental conditions along the coast of Kerala showed considerable spatial variation (0.14-0.96 mm). Standard deviation values indicated a very well sorted class along all ...
Acoustic basement: Its relevance to Karwar port development
(Allied, Chennai (India), 1996)
Detailed bathymetric, side-scan sonar and shallow seismic surveys followed by sediment sampling were conducted in Karwar Bay, Karnataka, India to study the surficial geology with special emphasis on basement configuration ...
Phosphorite concretions in a sediment core from a bathymetric high off Goa, western continental margin of India
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
A sediment core collected from a bathymetric high off Goa on the western continental margin of India, has yielded phosphorite concretions with an average Pd2O5 content of 32.75%, the P2O5 concentrations being highest ever ...
Ablated tektite from the central Indian Ocean
(Meteoritical Society, Fayetteville, USA, 1996)
A well-preserved ablated (button-shaped) tektite recovered from the surface sediments of the central Indian Ocean lacks flow ridges and has apparently undergone ablation of 6.9 to 7.9 mm. The lack of flow ridges and amount ...
Gas-charged sediments in shallow waters off Redi along the central west coast of India
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
This study reports the occurrence of gas-charged sediments in the nearshore areas of the west coast of India. High resolution shallow seismic reflection profiles on the nearshore area along central west coast of India, at ...
Tropical sea surface temperatures and the earth's orbital eccentricity cycles
(American Geophysical Union, 1996)
The tropical oceanic warm pools are climatologically important regions because their sea surface temperatures (SSTs) are positively related to atmospheric greenhouse effect and the cumulonimbus-cirrus cloud anvil. Such a ...
Australasian microtektites from the Central Indian Basin: Implications for ejecta distribution patterns
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
Microtektites belonging to the Australasian tektite strewn field have been recovered in one (SK-16/176) out of three cores examined from the Central Indian Basin. The microtektites have been identified based on their ...
