Deterioration of Early Holocene coral reef due to sea level rise along west coast of India: Benthic foraminiferal testimony
(China University of Geosciences (Beijing), 2012)
A total of 103 surface sediment samples collected from the water depth range of 15-3300 m along Vijaydurg-Karwar stretch of central west coast of India were analyzed for foraminiferal content. Relict benthic foraminiferal ...
Distribution of benthic foraminifera within oxygen minima zone, off central west coast, India
(Gondwana Geological Society, 2003)
A total of 128 surface sediment samples (76 grab and 52 core top samples) were analyzed for benthic foraminiferal contents from the region off Goa, India in the eastern Arabian Sea upto a water depth of 3300 m. 195 species ...
Ecological response of foraminiferal component in the sediments of Kharo Creek, Kachchh (Gujarat), west coast of India
(ONGC, India, 2000)
A total of seven surface sediment samples collected within 4.4 m to 13.9 m water depth (below chart datum) from Kharo Creek were studied for their foraminiferal content. The study reveals forty seven foraminiferal species ...
Planktonic percentage of foraminiferal fauna in surface sediments of the Arabian sea (Indian Ocean) and a regional model for paleodepth determination
(Elsevier, 1992)
The percentage of planktonic specimens in foraminiferal assemblages were determined in 126 surface sediment samples (depth range 13 to 1050 m) from the Arabian Sea along the western continental margin of India. The results ...
Remunerative role of foraminifera in coastal ecosystem
(M.S. Swaminathan Research Foundation, Madras, India, 1994)
Due to the direct relationship between climate and economy (through agriculture), predictive models for climatic changes are very much needed. Climatic prediction is a delicate task and depends upon how well know the past ...
Growing need to study foraminifera in the laboratory culture experiments: An attempt from the central west coast of India
(K.D. Malaviya Institute of Petroleum Exploration, Dehra Dun (India), 1996)
In recent past much emphasis has been laid on the high resolution reconstruction of the paleoclimatic conditions to help in preparing the futuristic climatic model. Many such efforts have used foraminifera as proxy indicators ...
Study of sub-surface sediments from northern Indian Ocean: Oceanic responses to climatic changes
(Palaeontol. Soc. India, 1994)
The mean diameter and variation in isotopic composition (delta sup(18)) in thest of Orbulina universa d'Orbigny have been measured in a sediment core collected from 3869 m water depth near the Carlsberg Ridge, northern ...
Appraisal of laboratory culture experiments on benthic foraminifera to assess/develop paleoceanographic proxies
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2007)
The laboratory culture studies, carried out on benthic foraminifera, with the aim to refine paleoceanographic / paleoclimatic or environmental application of benthic foraminifera, have been reviewed. The review includes ...
A foraminiferal testimony for the reduced adverse effects of mining in Zuari Estuary, Goa
(Taylor and Francis, 2005)
This paper demonstrates the potentiality of foraminifera in detecting mining pollution. Goa's Mandovi-Zuari estuarine complex is most vulnerable to deterioration caused by the mining industry. The objective of the present ...
Palaeoceanographic implications of abundance and mean proloculus diameter of benthic foraminiferal species Epistominella exigua in sub-surface sediments from distal Bay of Bengal fan
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2005)
Temporal variation in abundance and mean proloculus diameter of the benthic foraminiferal species Epistominella exigua has been reconstructed over the last approx. 50,000 yr BP, from a core collected from the distal Bay ...
