A comparison of Mg/Ca ratios in Globigerinoides ruber (white): sensu stricto versus a mixture of genotypes
(Geological Society of India, 2016)
Mg/Ca ratios were measured in core AAS9/21 from the eastern Arabian Sea (EAS), on two sets of planktonic foraminifera, one with a mixture of Globigerinoides ruber genotypes (sensu stricto and sensu lato) and the second ...
Geospatial approach towards enumerative analysis of suspended sediment concentration for Ganges-Brahmaputra Bay
(Elsevier, 2016)
This study presents an easy, modular, user-friendly, and flexible software package for processing of Landsat 7 ETM and Landsat 8 OLI-TIRS data for estimating suspended particulate matter concentrations in the coastal waters. ...
Biochemical and stable carbon isotope records of mangrove derived organic matter in the sediment cores
(Springer, 2016)
Core sediments from five mangrove ecosystems along northern Kerala Coast were collected to evaluate the nature and sources of organic matter in these ecosystems. General sedimentary parameters (pH, Eh, grain size and total ...
North Atlantic climatic changes reflected in the Late Quaternary foraminiferal abundance record of the Andaman Sea, north-eastern Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2016)
Here, we present planktonic foraminiferal, benthic foraminiferal and other proxy profiles from well-dated sediment cores in the Andaman Sea showing changes in climate and oceanography at Dansgaard-Oeschger (D/O) and Heinrich ...
Assessing the suitability of benthic foraminiferal morpho-groups to reconstruct paleomonsoon from Bay of Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2016)
Temporal changes in benthic foraminiferal morpho-groups were suggested as an effective proxy to reconstruct past monsoon intensity from the Arabian Sea. Here, in order to test the applicability of temporal variation in ...
Atmospheric fine and coarse mode aerosols at different environments of India and the Bay of Bengal during winter-2014: Implications of a coordinated campaign
(Metrology Society of India, 2014)
In this paper, we present mass concentrations of particulate matter [PM<sub>2.5</sub>, PM<sub>10</sub> size fractions and total suspended particulates (TSP)] measured simultaneously over land stations (Kullu, Patiala, ...
Spatial distribution of suspended particulate matter in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries: inferences on the estuarine turbidity maximum
(Current Science Association, 2016)
The present study estimate the suspended particulate matter in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries. samples were collected from the Mandovi (M0A–M9) and Zuari (Z0–Z8) estuaries and Cumbarjua canal (C0–C3).The spatial distribution ...
Evaluating changes in the elemental composition of micrometeorites during entry into the earth`s atmosphere
(The American Astronomical Society, 2015)
We evaluate the heating of extraterrestrial particles entering the atmosphere using the comprehensive chemical ablation model (CABMOD). This model predicts the ablation rates of individual elements in a particle with a ...
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 ...
Isolation of stigmast-5,24-dien-3-ol from marine brown algae Sargassum tenerrimum and its antipredatory activity
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015)
In recent years many sterols with potent biological activity have been identified from marine sources. Here we report the isolation of stigmast-5,24-dien-3-ol (fucosterol) as a major metabolite from the bioactive hexane-fraction ...
