Ammolagena clavata (Jones and Parker, 1860), an agglutinated benthic foraminiferal species - first report from the Recent sediments, Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean region
(Cushman Foundation for Foraminiferal Research, 2004)
The rare presence of the agglutinated foraminiferal species Ammolagena clavata is presented for the first time from the Recent sediments of the Indian Ocean region. This species has previously been reported in Recent ...
Inconsistent change in surface hydrography of the eastern Arabian Sea during the last four glacial-interglacial intervals
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2020)
The eastern Arabian Sea is influenced by both the advection of upwelled water from the western Arabian Sea and winter convective mixing. Therefore, sediments collected from the eastern Arabian Sea can help to understand ...
A late Pleistocene sedimentation in the Indus Fan, Arabian Sea, IODP Site U1457
(Cambridge University Press, 2020)
The intensity of turbidite sedimentation over long timescales is driven by sea-level change, tectonically driven rock uplift and climatically modulated sediment delivery rates. This study focuses on understanding the effect ...
Difference in optimum temperature for growth and reproduction in benthic foraminifer Rosalina globularis: Implications for paleoclimatic studies
(Elsevier, 2011)
The seawater temperature is an important physical parameter that affects marine benthic community. The effect of seawater temperature however is not consistent throughout various groups of marine benthos. Here, juvenile ...
Benthic foraminifera as proxy for oxygen-depleted conditions off the central west coast of India
(The Geological Society of India, 2007)
In order to study the response of benthic foraminifera, especially the rectilinear bi- and tri-serial benthic foraminifera (RBF) to oxygen-depleted conditions from the Arabian Sea off central west coast of India, 103 surface ...
Benthic foraminiferal response to changes in mining pattern: a case study from the Zuari estuary, Goa, India
(Springer, 2017)
Being sensitive to environmental changes, foraminifera have been extensively used to monitor pollution level in the marine environment, including the effect of mining in coastal areas. In the Goa state of India, the rejects ...
Abundance and Ecology of Endemic Asterorotalia trispinosa from the Western Bay of Bengal: Implications for its Application as a Paleomonsoon Proxy
(Wiley, 2017)
A total of 97 surface sediment samples were collected from the continental shelf and slope of the western Bay of Bengal to assess the potential application of Asterorotalia trispinosa as a paleomonsoon proxy. The relative ...
Linkage between seasonal insolation gradient in the tropical northern hemisphere and the sea surface salinity of the equatorial Indian Ocean during the last glacial period
(Geological Society of China, 2012)
Paired stable oxygen isotope and Mg/Ca analyses in calcite tests of the mixed-layer-dwelling planktic foraminifer Globigerinoides ruber has been used to reconstruct equatorial Indian Ocean delta sup(18)O of seawater (delta ...
Freeze-drying partially affects dead benthic foraminiferal shells in estuarine sediments
(Palaeontological Society of India, 2020)
Foraminiferal proxies are often used to understand both pollution and past climatic changes. The freeze-drying is a viable alternative to commonly used method of oven-drying to process marine sediments for foraminiferal ...
Non-destructive foraminiferal paleoclimatic proxies: A brief insight
(Indian National Science Academy, 2015)
Non-Destructive Foraminiferal Paleoclimatic Proxies: A Brief Insight The knowledge of past climate can help us to understand imminent climatic changes. Oceans are the vast archives of past climate. Various indirect techniques ...
