Particle flux during the southwest monsoon on the western margin of India
(University of Hamburg, 1987)
Three sediment traps on a mooring were deployed on the outer shelf at a depth of 115 m from May to September 1985 on the western continental margin of India to study the particle flux during the southwest monsoon The ...
Distribution of phosphorus and phosphatisation along the western continental margin of India
(Geological Society of India, 1987)
Phosphate content in the bulk sediments range from 0.02 to 2.17% and on carbonate free basis it varies from 0.03 to 6.5%. The partition studies indicate that contribution from the acid resistant detrital minerals (HCl ...
Distribution, factor analysis and ecology of benthic foraminifera within inner shelf regime of Vengurla-Bhatkal sector, West Coast, India
(Geological Society of India, 1987)
One hundred and two taxa of benthic foraminifera are reported from the neritic environment (15-60 m) of Vengurla - Bhatkal area. Q-mode factor analysis reveals 6 important foraminiferal assemblages accounting for 92% of ...
Offshore extension of the structural element of Udipi, confirmation from marine magneties
(Geological Society of India, 1987)
The isomagnetic anomaly map (1:3,00,000) reflects conspicuous E-W, NW-SE, WNW-ESE, NE-SW and N-S trends which are similar to that of the onshore Dharwar trend. The map also shows short wavelength, high amplitude anomalies ...
Proloculus size variation in Recent benthic foraminifera: Implications for paleoclimatic studies
(Elsevier, 1987)
Ratios of dimorphic (microspheric/megalospheric) forms of Foraminifera are affected by temperature and hence are useful in paleoclimatic studies. In some cases, however, it is not possible to distinguish between the dimorphic ...
Chlorinated pesticide residues in sediments from the Arabian Sea along the Central West coast of India
(Springer, 1987)
Environmental contamination by persistent chlorinated pesticides has evoked major concern due to the presence of their residues in the environment. The quantitative distribution of chlorinated pesticides residues in the ...
Regional marine geophysical studies of the south western continental margin of India
(Goa: National Inst of Oceanography, 1987)
Integrated bathymetric, gravimetric, magnetic and multichannel seismic reflection studies were carried out on the south western continental margin of India along three regional profiles. The study area lies between 60 m ...
Response of Barrier beaches along the southwest coast of India to monsoonal forcing
(Tirunelveli: JCSONLINE, 1987)
The response of a small stretch of barrier beach along the southern part of the west coast of India to the southwest wind and wave climates showed wide variations when examined through empirical Eigen function analysis. ...
Geophysical and geological surveys along the northeastern flank of Mount error, Northwestern Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 1987)
Bathymetry, multichannel continuous seismic reflection, magnetic and gravity surveys and sampling were carried out over Mount Error in the northwestern Indian Ocean and along the northeastern flank of the seamount, to study ...
Environmental controls on the distribution of organic matter in recent sediments of the western continental margin of India
(Dehra Dun: ONGC, 1987)
A large number of surficial sediment samples from the western continental shelf and slope regions were analysed for the organic carbon and total nitrogen content. The organic carbon and nitrogen contents of these sediments ...
