State of oil pollution in the northern Arabian Sea after the 1991 Gulf oil spill
(Pergamon, 1993)
Following the enormous oil spills resulting from the 1990-91 military conflict in the Gulf, fears were expressed concerning dissipation of oil from the Gulf into the Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean. To investigate contamination ...
Changes in geotechnical properties of sediments from the Central Indian Basin induced by disturbance experiment
(Taylor and Francis, 2005)
During the Indian Deep-sea Environment Experiment (INDEX) conducted in the Central Indian Basin to simulate nodule mining activity, the sediments were physically disturbed, lifted from the seafloor, and then redeposited ...
Arsenic enrichment in estuarine sediments-impact of iron and manganese mining
(BUET, Bangladesh, 2003)
River Mandovi and Zuari, Goa (west coast of India) are flowing through iron and manganese mining areas and are heavily used for iron and manganese ore transport. This region generates 25-30 million tons of mining rejects ...
A geophysical survey of the De Gerlache Seamounts: Preliminary results
(Springer, 1998)
The De Gerlache Seamounts actually consist of two medium-sized guyots, with summits at depths of 350-600 m. Acoustic profiler data show no significant sediment on these guyots. Alkaline basalts dredged from the summit of ...
समुद्रतल से तलछट के उप-नमूनों को एक साथ निकालने वाला विशेष कोर लाइनर
(National Research Development Corporation, 2012)
Describes the device that consists of a portable and reusable special core liner (SPCL). It accomplishes real-time sub-sampling of aqueous sediments. Besides being revolutionary, inexpensive and user-friendly, the SPCL is ...
Grain size studies on the nearshore sediments of Jaigad, Ambwah and Varvada Bays, Maharashtra
(Geological Society of India, 1997)
Bivariate plots of the textural parameter data suggest overlapping environments, such as river/beach to JB, beach/dune/river to AB and dune/beach to VB sediments.
Ferromanganese nodules and their associated sediments from the Central Indian Ocean Basin: Rare earth element geochemistry
(Taylor and Francis, 2001)
The rare earth element (REE) distribution in nine deep-sea ferromanganese nodules and their associated siliceous sediments from the Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) have been studied to elucidate the REE relationship among ...
Acoustic seafloor sediment classification using self-organizing feature maps
(IEEE, 2001)
A self-organizing feature map (SOFM), a kind of artificial neural network (ANN) architecture, is used in this work for continental shelf seafloor sediment classification. Echo data are acquired using an echosounding system ...
Tracking the history of dinoflagellate cyst assemblages in sediments from the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2012)
In order to trace the history of dinoflagellate cyst assemblages and provide new insights in to Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) dynamics in monsoon influenced tropical environments, sediment cores were collected from four different ...
Geochemical and isotopic signatures of surficial sediments from the western continental shelf of India: Inferring provenance, weathering, and the nature of organic matter
(Society for Sedimentary Geology, 2013)
Bottom sediments from thirteen transects sampled mainly at depth contours of 30, 100, and 200 m along the western continental margin of India, falling in two offshore sectors from Dwaraka to Goa and Cape Comorin to Goa, ...
