Response of deep-sea macrobenthos to a small-scale environmental disturbance
(Elsevier, 2001)
To assess the possible effect of nodule mining on deep-sea environment, the Indian deep-sea environment experiment (INDEX) was undertaken in the Indian Basin. The present investigation is a part of the disturbance and ...
18 Ka BP records of climatic changes, Bay of Bengal: Isotopic and sedimentological evidences
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2001)
Based upon the oxygen isotopic records of Globigerinoide sacculifer, the clay mineral assemblages and aridity indicator chlorite/illite (C/I) ratio, the palaeoclimatic changes during the past 18 Ka BP have been archived. ...
Why is mean sea level along the Indian coast higher in the Bay of Bengal than in the Arabian Sea?
(Americal Geophysical Union, 2001)
Levelling observations conducted during the Great Trigonometrical Survey of India (1858-1909) and subsequent observations showed that mean sea level along the coast of India is higher in the Bay of Bengal than in the Arabian ...
An occurrence of approx. 74 ka Youngest Toba tephra from the western continental margin of India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2001)
A dispersed volcanic ash layer was recovered at ~6 300 cm depth in a 5.52 m long sediment core collected at a latitude 9~'21'E from a water depth of 2300 m on the Western Continental Margin of India (WCMI). Glass shards ...
New stable isotope records of sediment cores from the SE Arabian Sea - Inferences on the variations in monsoon regime during the late Quaternery
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2001)
We reconstruct here the changes in regional hydrography related to the fluctuations in Indian monsoons during the late Quaternary based on the stable isotope composition of the foraminifers and organic matter in three ...
Spatial distribution of meteorological parameters around 900 hPa level over the Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean regions during the IFP-99 of the INDOEX programme as revealed from the constant altitude balloon experiments conducted from Goa
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2001)
During the IFP-99 of the INDOEX programme, an Indo-French joint scientific team conducted 17 constant balloon flights from Goa (India) mainly to study the various features features of the continental air mass flow from the ...
