Zircon U-Pb geochronology and geochemistry of Devonian plagiogranites in the Kuerti area of southern Chinese Altay, northwest China: Petrogenesis and tectonic evolution of late Paleozoic ophiolites
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018)
This study presents zircon U-Pb geochronology with major, trace, rare earth element and Sr-Nd isotope geochemistry for plagiogranite dyke swarms occurring within the gabbro unit of the lower part of the Kuerti ophiolite ...
Biobleaching of waste paper using lignolytic enzyme from Fusarium equiseti VKF2: a mangrove isolate
(Springer Netherlands, 2018)
Laccase is a major enzyme used in the paper and pulp industries for bio-bleaching applications. This paper focused on the bio-bleaching property of a potential lignolytic fungus, Fusarium equiseti VKF-2. Optimum conditions ...
Paleomagnetic record for the past 80 ka from the Mahanadi basin, Bay of Bengal
(Pergamon, 2018)
High resolution paleomagnetic investigations were performed on a 50.08 m long sediment core (MD161/20) from Mahanadi basin, Bay of Bengal. Core yielded reliable paleomagnetic results for top 20 m below seafloor (mbsf) which ...
Upper air thermal inversion and their impact on the summer monsoon rainfall over Goa - A case study
(Pergamon, 2018)
Profiles of periodic GPS Radiosonde ascends collected from a station at the west coast of India (Goa) during summer monsoon months (June to September) of 2009 and 2013 have been used to analyze the thermal inversion ...
Seasonal and depth-wise variations in bacterial and archaeal groups in the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone
(Elsevier, 2018)
Seasonal variations, as well as depth-wise distribution patterns of bacterial and archaeal communities in the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone (AS-OMZ), were analyzed by examining 16S rRNA gene clones and their sequences. ...
Mudbanks and fisheries along the Kerala coast-myth and reality
(Current Science Association & Indian Academy of Sciences, 2018)
Mudbanks, a unique coastal oceanographic phenomenon occurring along the southwest (SW) coast of India during the SW monsoon season, are synonymous with the fishery of this region. Here we examine the validity of the popular ...
Stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic composition of PM10 over Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP), adjoining regions and Indo-Himalayan Range (IHR) during a winter 2014 campaign
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2018)
For source identification, a field campaign involving simultaneous sampling of particulate matter (PM10) was conducted at eight sampling sites in the Indian mainland during winter 2014. The sampling sites include Delhi ...
