Medicinal properties of marine mussels and mussel culture
(National Inst. of Oceanography (CSIR); India, 2009)
Heavy metal burden in coastal marine sediments of north west coast of India in relation to pollution
(National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, India, 2009)
Human activities in the marine zone of India are mainly confined to the inner shelf where water depths are <50 m. Considering the vastness of the coastal area, the data on contaminants including metals in seawater, marine ...
Direct bed stress measurements under solitary tsunami-type waves and breaking tsunami wave fronts
(World Scientific Pub. Co., 2009)
During their propagation tsunamis often traverse continental slopes that are relatively steep compared to deeper oceans. Further due to the change of bed slope from offshore to near shore, there is every likely possibility ...
Acoustic characterization of seafloor sediment employing a hybrid method of neural network architecture and fuzzy algorithm
(IEEE, 2009)
Seafloor sediment is characterized acoustically in the western continental shelf of India using the echo features extracted from normal incidence single-beam echo sounder backscatter returns at 33 and 210 kHz. The seafloor ...
AoA Region: Red Sea And Gulf of Aden
(UNESCO/IOC, 2009)
The Red Sea and Gulf of Aden region includes nine countries, Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen and contains the Red Sea Large Marine Ecosystem (LME).
Biophysical processes in the Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 2009)
Basic physical processes that impact biological activity in the Indian Ocean (IO), namely, near-surface processes (upwelling, entrainment, detrainment, and advection) and subsurface circulations (shallow overturning cells ...
Spectral characteristics of the nearshore waves off Paradip, India during monsoon and extreme events
(Springer, 2009)
Spectral and statistical wave parameters obtained from the measured time series wave data off Paradip, east coast of India during May 1996-January 1997 were analysed along with MIKE 21 spectral wave model (SW) results. ...
Geochemical characterization of oceanic basalts using artificial neural network
(BioMed Central Ltd, 2009)
The geochemical discriminate diagrams help to distinguish the volcanics recovered from different tectonic settings but these diagrams tend to group the ocean floor basalts (OFB) under one class i.e., as mid-oceanic ridge ...
New evidence of marine archaeology around Mul Dwarka (Kodinar), Gujarat coast, India
(Indian Society for Prehistoric and Quaternary Studies, 2009)
Marine archaeological explorations were carried out in and around Mul Dwarka (Kodinar) on the Saurshtra coast. The oldest remains are attributed to the Harappan phase at Kanjetar and Kaj. Both sites are situated close to ...
Methods of gas hydrate concentration estimation with field examples
(Society of Petroleum Geophysicists, India, 2009)
The presence of gas hydrates alters the bulk physical properties of the host sediments. The deviation of the physical property in the hydrated layer from the regional (hydrate-free background) trend can be used to estimate ...
