Aeolian deposition of Arabia and Somalia sediments on the southwestern continental margin of India
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
Kaolinite, smectite, illite and chlorite as major clay minerals and palygorskite and gibbsite in minor quantities have been recorded from the slope of southwestern continental margin of India. Contribution of kaolinite, ...
Partitioning and speciation of trace metal diagenesis in differing depositional environments in the sediments of the Oman margin
(Springer, 2005)
Organic-rich sediment samples collected from a transect within, and below, the Oman Margin oxygen minimum zone (OMZ)were analysed using a sequential leaching technique to characterise the diagenetic behaviour and speciation ...
Distribution patterns of Recent planktonic foraminifera in surface sediments of the western continental margin of India
(Elsevier, 1993)
Study of Recent plankton foraminifera from the surface sediment samples of western continental margin of India reveals the ecological preferences of the different planktonic foraminifera species in the area. Higher absolute ...
Phosphorite concretions in a sediment core from a bathymetric high off Goa, western continental margin of India
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1996)
A sediment core collected from a bathymetric high off Goa on the western continental margin of India, has yielded phosphorite concretions with an average Pd2O5 content of 32.75%, the P2O5 concentrations being highest ever ...
Barium as a productivity proxy in continental margin sediments: A study from the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2002)
Barium, aluminium, cadmium and uranium were analyzed in 112 surface sediment samples from the western continental margin, of India. Excess Ba (Ba sub(xs)) concentrations are high at the SW margin of India, an area of high ...
Distribution and sources of organic matter in surface sediments of the eastern continental margin of India
(American Geophysical Union, 2013)
The sources and distribution of organic matter (OM) in surface sediments of the eastern continental margin of India, including the region influenced by river discharge, were investigated using content, molar C:N ratios and ...
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 ...
Ooid turbidites from the Central Western continental margin of India
(Springer, 1989)
Gravity displaced debris flows/turbidites have been observed in five box cores collected between water depths of 649 and 3,627 m from the Central Western continental margin of India. Studies on grain size, carbonate content, ...
Distribution of phosphorus and phosphatisation along the western continental margin of India
(Geological Society of India, 1987)
Phosphate content in the bulk sediments range from 0.02 to 2.17% and on carbonate free basis it varies from 0.03 to 6.5%. The partition studies indicate that contribution from the acid resistant detrital minerals (HCl ...
Response of infaunal macrobenthos to the sediment granulometry in a tropical continental margine southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2008)
Surficial sediment samples, collected from the continental margin of the southwest coast of India in July 2004, were examined for the grain size and soft-bottom macrobenthic fauna, to understand the sediment granulometry ...
