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.
Diagenetic remobilization of rare earth elements in a sediment core from the central Indian Basin
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)
Rare earth elements (REE) distribution in a 36 cm long sediment box core from the Central Indian Basin is studied. REE concentration is generally higher in the upper oxic zone than in intermediate suboxic zone suggesting ...
Lithological and mineralogical changes observed in a core from the western Bay of Bengal
(Allied, New Delhi (India), 1997)
Lithological and mineralogical studies were carried out on sediments from a 650 cm long core from the north western Bay of Bengal at a depth of 2700 m. These studies demarcate a boundary at 380 cm designated as unit 1 from ...
Shallow stratigraphy and gas-charged sediments in the inner shelf off Redi, west coast of India
(Cent. for Earth Sci. Stud., Cochin (India), 1997)
Bathymetric, side scan sonar and seismic studies were conducted in shallow waters of 11-18 m off Redi along central west coast of India to understand the stratigraphy and structural features. Bathymetric contours suggest ...
Evidence for recent hydrothermal activity in the Central Indian Basin
(Pergamon, 1997)
This study documents the first actual prof of recent intraplate volcanic-hydrothermal activity in the Central Indian Basin (CIB). Twenty-six surface sediments and a spade core (37 cm long) from the CIB were examined for ...
Physical properties of a long sediment core from the central Indian Basin
(Geological Survey and Mines Bureau, Dehiwala, Sri Lanka, 1997)
In a 7.5 m-long box core, collected at 9 degrees S and 77 degrees E from 5400 m water depth from the Central Indian Basin, geotechnical properties clearly reflect the Plio-Pleistocene boundary. It is marked by a drastic ...
Some geodynamic complexities related to the evolution of Bengal Fan and the neotectonic activity of the south Indian shield
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, 1997)
After three decades of the International Indian Ocean Expedition (IIOE) and in spite of extensive geophysical data collected during the last one decade, the geodynamics of the Bengal Fan and the Peninsular shield at the ...
Isotopic compositions of boron in sediments and their implications
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, 1997)
The abundance and isotopic compositions of boron in sediments from the salt lakes of Qaidam Basin, China have been determined by thermal ionization mass spectrometry of cesium borate. The results show large variations in ...
Seafloor and sediment characteristics in INDEX AREA
(Metal Mining Agency of Japan, 1997)
Seafloor surveys and sediment sampling during the INDEX (Indian Deep-Sea Environmental Experiment) studies in the Central Indian Basin, resulted in identification of Test and Reference Areas, as well of establishment of ...
Benthic disturbance and monitoring experiment in the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Int. Society of Offshore and Polar Engineering, Colorado, USA, 1997)
Environmental impact assessment studies for deep-sea manganese nodule mining have been initiated in the Central indian Ocean Basin since 1995. As a part of the first phase for collecting the benthic baseline data, echosounding, ...
