Magnetic properties of sediments in cores from the Mandovi estuary, western India: Inferences on provenance and pollution
(Elsevier, 2015)
Magnetic properties of sediments were investigated in 7 gravity cores recovered along a transect of the Mandovi estuary, western India to understand their provenance and pollution. The maximum magnetic susceptibility of ...
Baseline geophysical data for hazard management in coastal areas in relation to earthquakes and tsunamis
(Sage Publication, 2016)
A systematic study of geophysical data of the Eastern Continental Margin of India was taken up to identify the land-ocean tectonic lineaments over the east coast of India and the possible neotectonic activity associated ...
Influence of 2015 flood on the distribution and occurrence of microplastic pellets along the Chennai coast, India
(Elsevier, 2016)
The sources, distribution, surface features, polymer composition and age of microplastic pellets (MPPs) in surface sediments along the Chennai coast during March 2015 (pre-Chennai flood) and November 2015 (post-Chennai ...
Basement configuration of KG offshore basin from magnetic anomalies
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2016)
Marine magnetic anomalies along three representative profiles falling between shelf break and continent-ocean boundary in the offshore Krishna-Godavari basin were quantitatively interpreted for understanding the nature and ...
Phosphorous fractionation in mangrove sediments of Kerala, south west coast of India: the relative importance of inorganic and organic phosphorous fractions
(Springer, 2016)
The study of phosphorous dynamics in mangrove ecosystems of the northern Kerala coast aims to delineate its relationships with other biogeochemical parameters. Our intension is to check the validity of the hypothesis that ...
Secondary calcification of planktic foraminifera from the Indian sector of Southern ocean
(Geological Society of China, 2015)
This study focused on planktic foraminifera in plankton tows and surface sediments from the western Indian sector of Southern Ocean in order to evaluate the potential foraminiferal secondary calcification and/or dissolution ...
Partitioning of metals in different binding phases of tropical estuarine sediments: importance of metal chemistry
(Springer, 2016)
Distribution of metals in different binding phases of estuarine sediments provides chemically significant description of metal–sediment interactions. This study describes the influences of ligand field stabilization energy ...
A comparison of Mg/Ca ratios in Globigerinoides ruber (white): sensu stricto versus a mixture of genotypes
(Geological Society of India, 2016)
Mg/Ca ratios were measured in core AAS9/21 from the eastern Arabian Sea (EAS), on two sets of planktonic foraminifera, one with a mixture of Globigerinoides ruber genotypes (sensu stricto and sensu lato) and the second ...
Disseminated sulphides in basalts from the northern central Indian ridge: Implications on late-stage hydrothermal activity
(Springer, 2015)
This study examined the mineralogy and mineral chemistry of disseminated sulphides (mainly chalcopyrite-pyrite) in partly altered basalts from the northern Central Indian Ridge, Indian Ocean in order to understand the role ...
Differential bleaching of corals based on El Nino type and intensity in the Andaman Sea, southeast Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2016)
The Andaman coral reef region experienced mass bleaching events during 1998 and 2010. The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of the El Nino in the coral reef bleaching events of the Andaman region. Both Nino ...
