Holocene benthonic foraminifera from the shelf sediments of Kerala coast
(Indian Society of Earth Scientists, 1974)
Of the 32 species of benthic foraminifera recovered here some show definite Indo-Pacific affinity. Ecological parameters which govern this offshore region are considered. Several species show similarities with those found ...
Foraminifera as climatic indicators in the sediments of Western Indian continental shelf
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1973)
Foraminifera are the single celled microscopic organisms found abundantly in the seas and oceans. The tests of these organisms are preserved in the present sediments of the ocean as in the past, sometimes constituting ...
Studies on the shelf sediments off the Madras coast
(National Institute of Sciences of India, 1968)
Sediment samples collected from the shelf and slope regions along two sections normal to the coast off Madras and Karaikal and from a few stations in between have been studied for their grain size, coarse fraction constituents ...
Distribution of phosphorus in the marine sediments off the east coast of India
(National Institute of Sciences of India, 1968)
Sediment samples collected from the shelf and slope regions off the East Coast of India between "Swatch of no ground" in the north and Karaikal in the south, have been analysed for their total phosphorus content and its ...
Beach processes between Mulgund and Shiroda, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1994)
Study on beach processes for an year shows seasonal changes without annual net erosion. The beaches are stable and regain the maximum profiles during February to April. Distribution of longshore current direction is not ...
210Pb, 230Th, and 10Be in Central Indian Basin seamount sediments: Signatures of degassing and hydrothermal alteration of recent origin
(Wiley, 2008)
Isotopic (sup(210)Pb, sup(238)U-sup(230)Th, sup(10)Be), major and trace elements, and micromorphological and microchemical data, were used to identify recent (approx. 100 yrs) hydrothermal alteration of a greater than 200 ...
Occurrence of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma new subspecies in the shelf-slope sediments of northern Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1977)
Specimens of @iNeogloboquadrina pachyderma@@ (Ehrenberg) which are considered to be typical bipolar, coolerwater species, are described in the recent shelf-slope sediments of the northern Indian Ocean as far north as 23~'N ...
Heavy mineral suite in the shelf sediments off Madras coast
(Indian Geophysical Union, 1972)
The heavy mineral suite of the shelf sediments of this area (12~'00': 13~'05'N and 80~'00': 80~'36'E), are characterised by a dominant group of minerals such as hornblende, augite, hypersthene, garnet and opaque minerals; ...
Clastic dike from Baga, Goa
(Current Science Association, 1972)
An uncommon feature of an occurrence of a clastic dike was noticed in Baga headland, Goa, India during the investigation carried out on the geological setting of Northern Goa Coast. Clastic dikes and related sills are ...
Clay mineralogy of the mud banks of Cochin
(Current Science Association, 1968)
The mineralogy of the sediments constituting the mud banks formed off Cochin, Kerala, India was studied. The clay mineral composition was used as a means of understanding the nature and source of origin of the muds. Fine ...
