Linkage between speciation of Cd in mangrove sediment and its bioaccumulation in total soft tissue of oyster from the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2016)
This study established a mechanistic linkage between Cd speciation and bioavailability in mangrove system from the west coast of India. High bioaccumulation of Cd was found in the oyster (Crassostrea sp.) even at low Cd ...
Relationship between the lability of sediment-bound Cd and its bioaccumulation in edible oyster.
(Elsevier, 2015)
A linkage between Cd speciation in sediments and its bioaccumulation in edible oyster (Crassostrea sp.) from a tropical estuarine system was established. Bioaccumulation of Cd in edible oyster increased with the increasing ...
Reduction of mercury (II) by humic substances-influence of pH, salinity of aquatic system
(Springer, 2015)
This study demonstrates that under abiotic dark conditions in aquatic system, humic substances are not only capable of converting Hg(II) to Hg<sup>0</sup> but also able to bind Hg(II) ion. The degree of Hg(II) reduction ...
Partitioning of metals in different binding phases of tropical estuarine sediments: importance of metal chemistry
(Springer, 2016)
Distribution of metals in different binding phases of estuarine sediments provides chemically significant description of metal–sediment interactions. This study describes the influences of ligand field stabilization energy ...
Relationship between the lability of sediment-bound Cd and its bioaccumulation in edible oyster
(Elsevier, 2015)
A linkage between Cd speciation in sediments and its bioaccumulation in edible oyster (Crassostrea sp.) from a tropical estuarine system was established. Bioaccumulation of Cd in edible oyster increased with the increasing ...
Chemical characterization of meltwater from East Rathong glacier vis-a-vis Western Himalayan glaciers
(Springer, 2015)
Ice and meltwater samples from Rathong glacier and its pro-glacial stream Rathong chu, were collected during late winter season. Samples were analyzed to study the chemical composition , weathering, and geochemical processes ...
Geochemical fractionation of Ni, Cu and Pb in the deep sea sediments from the Central Indian Ocean Basin: An insight into the mechanism of metal enrichment in sediment
(Elsevier, 2016)
Metal speciation study in combination with major element chemistry of deep sea sediments provided possible metal enrichment pathways in sediments collected from environmentally different locations of Central Indian Ocean ...
Distribution and nature of sedimentary organic matter in a tropical estuary: An indicator of human intervention on environment
(Elsevier, 2016)
Sediment texture controls the spatial distribution of sedimentary organic matter (SOM) in the Vembanad Lake. Influences of marine derived organic matter (OM) on SOM decreased inner-wards in the northern part of the lake. ...
Kinetic speciation of mercury–humate complexes in aqueous solutions by using competing ligand exchange method
(Elsevier, 2016)
Competing ligand exchange method (CLEM) in conjunction with direct mercury analyzer (DMA) was found to be a useful method for kinetic speciation study of (mercury–humic acid) Hg–HA complexes in aqueous systems. Ambersep ...
Mercury profiles in sediment from the marginal high of Arabian Sea: An indicator of increasing anthropogenic Hg input
(Springer, 2016)
Total Hg distributions and its speciation were determined in two sediment cores collected from the western continental marginal high of India. Total Hg content in the sediment was found to gradually increase (by approximately ...
