Geomorphology and geology of the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 2001)
Marine geological studies in the Bay of Bengal were initiated by the Andhra University in early 1950's and have subsequently become widespread during the International Indian Ocean Expedition (IIOE - 1962-65). Geomorphological ...
Rare earth elements in suspended and bottom sediments of the Mandovi estuary,central west coast of India: Influence of mining
(Elsevier, 2011)
Rare earth elements (REEs) in the suspended particulate matter (SPM) of the Mandovi estuary indicated that the mean total-REEs and light REE to heavy REE ratios are lower than that of the average suspended sediment in World ...
Verdine and glaucony facies from surficial sediments of the eastern continental margin of India
(Elsevier, 1995)
The present paper reports the first mineralogical description of green grains (verdine and glaucony) from sediments of the eastern continental margin of India. Only 24 of the 82 sediment samples studied, at depths between ...
Glacial to Holocene fluctuations in hydrography and productivity along the southwestern continental margin of India
(Elsevier, 2001)
Oxygen isotope and sedimentological records of a sediment core from the southwestern continental margin of India are used to reconstruct the fluctuations in sea surface hydrography and productivity during the last deglaciation. ...
Controls on the distribution and fractionation of yttrium and rare earth elements in core sediments from the Mandovi estuary, western India
(Elsevier, 2015)
Mineralogy, major elements (Fe, Mn and Al), rare earths and yttrium (REY) of bulk sediments were analyzed in four gravity cores recovered along the main channel of the Mandovi estuary, western India, to determine the sources ...
Provenance and distribution of clay minerals in the sediments of the western continental shelf and slope of India
(Pergamon, 1995)
The distribution of clay minerals from 156 surficial sediments of the western continental margin of India, ranging from 17 to 2000 m water depth, indicate that there are three principal sources of sediments. The illite and ...
Origin and significance of high-grade phosphorite in a sediment core from the continental slope off Goa, India
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1995)
A phosphorite crust was found at 380-390 cm depth interval of a sediment core collected from the topographic high occurring on the continental slope off Goa. This crust is fragile and grey to light brown in colour. Carbonate ...
Clay minerals and Sr-Nd isotopes of the sediments along the western margin of India and their implication for sediment provenance
(Elsevier, 2003)
Mineralogy and Sr-Nd isotopic composition of the less than 2-m fraction of the Holocene and late Pleistocene sediments from 12 gravity cores collected along the western margin of India were used to delineate the provenance ...
Mineralogy of polymetallic nodules and associated sediments from the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Elsevier, 1987)
Todorokite is the dominant mineral phase in the nodules of the northern Central Indian Ocean Basin. These nodules are characterised by a rough surface texture, are relatively rich in Mn, Cu and Ni, and are associated with ...
Rock magnetic records of the sediments of the eastern Arabian Sea: Evidence for the late Quaternary climatic change
(Elsevier, 2005)
Rock-magnetic measurements along with grain size, acid-insoluble residue (AIR), organic carbon (OC), CaCO sub(3) and delta sup(18)O of the planktonic foraminifers of the sediments were determined for 15 gravity cores ...
