Sediment pathways and emergence of Himalayan source material in the Bay of Bengal
(Current Science Association, 2016)
The sediment succession in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) records the signatures corresponding to India–Asia collision, regional climate change, and erosional proc- esses of both the Himalayan orogen and Indian subcontinent. The ...
Plate tectonic reconstruction of India and Madagascar closing through the Mascarene Basin
(Ocean Society of India, 2015)
The western continental margin of India was formed due to the rifting and drifting among India, Madagascar and Seychelles. Several researchers provided relative configuration of India and Madagascar in their pre-break-up ...
Heavy metals pollution influence the community structure of Cyanobacteria in nutrient rich tropical estuary
(OMICS International, 2015)
Anthropogenic inputs influence the community structure and activities of microorganisms, which may impinge the functioning of estuarine and coastal ecosystem. The aim of the present study was to understand the influence ...
Storm and tsunami induced sediment transport and morphology changes in vicinity of tidal inlets
(Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, 2014)
This study comprises of numerical modelling studies on the morphology changes in the vicinity of tidal inlets. Two real case scenarios comprising of a very severe cyclonic storm and the mega Indian Ocean tsunami were ...
Sedimentary pigments and nature of organic matter within the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) of the Eastern Arabian Sea (Indian margin)
(Elsevier, 2016)
Sedimentary pigments, carbon and nitrogen content and their stable isotopes were studied in three short cores collected from the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) of the Eastern Arabian Sea (EAS). Nine pigments including chlorophyll ...
Lead distribution in coastal and estuarine sediments around India
(Elsevier, 2015)
This study describes the geochemical distribution of lead (Pb) and identifies the critical factors that significantly control Pb distribution and speciation in coastal and estuarine sediments around India by using published ...
Linkage between speciation of Cd in mangrove sediment and its bioaccumulation in total soft tissue of oyster from the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2016)
This study established a mechanistic linkage between Cd speciation and bioavailability in mangrove system from the west coast of India. High bioaccumulation of Cd was found in the oyster (Crassostrea sp.) even at low Cd ...
Mineralogy and Sr–Nd isotopes of SPM and sediment from the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries: Influence of weathering and anthropogenic contribution
(Elsevier, 2015)
Clay minerals and Sr–Nd isotopes of suspended particulate matter (SPM) and bottom sediment were investigated along transect stations of the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, western India to determine the provenance and role ...
Evolution of extreme high waters along the east coast of India and at the head of the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2016)
The recent evolution of extreme high waters along the severe cyclone-risk coasts of the Bay of Bengal (the east coast of India and Bangladesh) was assessed using long-term (24–34 years) hourly tide gauge data available ...
Estimation of sea surface temperature (SST) using marine seismic data
(Springer, 2016)
Not much attention is given to direct wave arrivals in marine seismic data that are acquired for petroleum exploration and prospecting. These direct arrivals are usually muted out in routine seismic data processing. In the ...
