Size distribution and carbonate content of the sediments of the western shelf of India
(National Institute of Sciences of India, 1968)
Sediment samples collected during the 25th cruise of I.N.S. KISTNA (Indian Programme of I.I.O.E.) were analysed for grain size and carbonate content. The shelf sediments show well defined zonation, except where river-borne ...
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 ...
Geochemistry of zinc in the sediments of the western continental shelf and slope of India
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)
The bulk geochemistry of zinc in the sediments of the western continental shelf and slope of India and also the partition geochemistry of the sediments of the shelf and slope regions between Ratnagiri and Mangalore have ...
Geochemistry of sediments of the eastern continental shelf of India
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)
The bulk and partition geochemistry of Al, Fe, Ti, Mn, Zn, and Cu have been investigated in sediments of the eastern continental shelf of India. The results show that (1) the bulk geochemistry varies from one shelf unit ...
Studies on sup(226) Ra and sup(210) Pb activities and the concentration factors of sup(226) Ra in the surface organic layers of the estuarine sediments of Mindola and Purna rivers in India
(Elsevier, 1984)
The sediment samples have been collected from estuarine regions of Mindola and Purna of Gujarat State These samples are found to contain less than 3% of organic matter which scavenge and carry most of the activity of ...
Geochemical evidence of terrigenous influence in deep-sea sediments upto 8°S in the Central Indian basin
(Elsevier, 1989)
Thirty-two representative deep-sea sediment samples have been studied from three manganese nodule-bearing environments in the Central Indian Basin: diatomaceous-radiolarian ooze-clay, pelagic brown clay and calcareous ooze. ...
Sediment boron and its relation to sediment properties in a tropical estuary
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1988)
Boron in the sediments of Mandovi estuary varied from 8.0 to 258.0 ppm with an average of 118 ppm. It showed an inverse relation to the texture of sediments and was found to be concentrated in silt and clay fraction with ...
Anomalous behaviour of uranium isotopes in backwater sediments of Zuari river
(Elsevier, 1983)
The surface leaching of the labile component of uranium has been carried out in estuarine sediments of Zuari River in Goa, India The measurements of alpha activities of sup(238) U, sup(235) U and sup(234) U in the leachates ...
Geochemistry of Sediment cores of the Western Equatorial Indian Ocean
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1983)
Geochemical investigations including partition analysis have been carried out on nine sediment cores from the western equatorial Indian Ocean. The results show that a core from the Arabian Sea exhibits a greater terrigenous ...
Surficial Sediments of the Continental Shelf off Karnataka
(Geological Society of India, 1981)
The continental shelf in this area is about 80 km wide and the edge of the shelf varies between 90 and 120 m water depth. Geologically modern fine-grained clastic sediments occur between the water depth. Geologically modern ...
