Hydrographic changes in the Agulhas Recirculation Region during the late Quaternary.
(European Geosciences Union, 2014)
The strength of Southern Hemisphere westerlies, as well as the positions of the subtropical front (STF), Agulhas Current (AC) and Agulhas Return Current (ARC) control the hydrography of the southwestern Indian Ocean. ...
Distributional pattern of benthic foraminiferal morpho-groups in the shelf region off Mangalore: Environmental implications
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1995)
The foraminiferal population in 45 surface sediment samples (20-86 m water depth) off Mangalore, Karnataka, India, was divided into benthic and planktonic assemblages. Within the benthic community based on the external ...
Effect of salinity induced pH/alkalinity changes on benthic foraminifera: A laboratory culture experiment
(Elsevier, 2015)
The salinity of coastal waters in the vicinity of seasonally fresh water fed estuaries changes tremendously and reportedly affects the living calcite secreting organisms like foraminifera, as well as their dead remains. ...
A first look at past sea surface temperatures in the equatorial Indian Ocean from Mg/Ca in foraminifera
(AGU, 2005)
Sea surface temperature (SST) for the central equatorial Indian Ocean, has been reconstructed over the last approx. 137 kyr, from Mg/Ca of the planktonic foraminiferal species Globigerinoides ruber. According to our record ...
Distribution, factor analysis and ecology of benthic foraminifera within inner shelf regime of Vengurla-Bhatkal sector, West Coast, India
(Geological Society of India, 1987)
One hundred and two taxa of benthic foraminifera are reported from the neritic environment (15-60 m) of Vengurla - Bhatkal area. Q-mode factor analysis reveals 6 important foraminiferal assemblages accounting for 92% of ...
Foraminiferal assemblages and their use as indicators of sediments movement: a study in the shelf region off Navapur, India
(Elsevier, 1986)
Factor analysis of 60 species of foraminifera from 13 stations off Navapur, reveals three major assemblages - Ammonia annectens, Ammonia papillosus-Asterorotalia dentata and Ammobaculites persicus assemblages. These ...
Intertidal foraminifera from Miramar-Caranzalem Shoreline, Goa
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Quantitative analysis of foraminifera (entire and broken) revealed that Rotalina, composed of 29 species, constituted 95.18% while Miliolina, composed of 11 species, and Textulariina, with 5 species were poorly represented. ...
Fluctuating monsoonal precipitation as revealed by foraminiferal variations in a core from shelf regime off Karwar (India)
(Current Science Association, 1988)
Variations in the percentage frequency of the foraminifera Cavarotalia annectens in the sediments collected by box core in the shelf region of Karwar, infront of the mouth of the Kalinadi river, India were used to map ...
Living benthonic foraminifera in a tidal environment: Gulf of Khambhat (India)
(Elsevier, 1984)
Living benthonic foraminifera from the top one centimeter layer from 23 surface sediment samples have been studied. Samples were collected from the tidally affected inner shelf off the Daman Bombay sector of the Arabian ...
Foraminiferal assemblages and organic carbon relationship in benthic marine ecosystem of Western Indian Continental Shelf
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1982)
Foraminiferal assemblages in the sediment and their relation to organic carbon have been studied in selected nearshore areas on the west coast, namely, Gulf of Kutch, Bombay-Daman sector, Vengurla-Dabhol sector, Cola Bay ...
