Research vessels
Rao, P.S. (New Delhi: Department of Ocean Development, 1988)The role of the research vessels as a tool for marine research and exploration is very important. Technical requirements of a suitable vessel and the laboratories needed on board are discussed. The history and the research ... -
Response of bacterioplankton to iron fertilization of the Southern Ocean, Antarctica
Singh, SanjayKumar; Kotakonda, A.; Kapardar, R.K.; Kankipati, H.K.; Rao, P.S.; Sankaranarayanan, P.M.; Vetaikorumagan, S.R.; Gundlapally, S.R.; Ramaiah, N.; Shivaji, S. (Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015)Ocean iron fertilization is an approach to increase CO<sub>2</sub> sequestration. The Indo-German iron fertilization experiment “LOHAFEX” was carried out in the Southern Ocean surrounding Antarctica in 2009 to monitor ... -
Sediment texture, distribution and transport on the Ayeyarwady continental shelf, Andaman Sea
Rao, P.S.; Ramaswamy, V.; Thwin, S. (Elsevier, 2005)The Ayeyarwady continental shelf is a complex sedimentary system characterized by large sediment influx (N360 million ton/yr), a wide shelf (N170 km), a strong tidal regime (7 m maximum tidal range), and incised by the ... -
Sonograph patterns of the central western continental shelf of India
Rao, P.S. (Tirunelveli: JCSONLINE, 1989)Side scan sonar and bathymetric surveys were conducted on the central western continental shelf of India. The sonographs portray a smooth, relatively featureless inner shelf, up to a depth less than 40-50 m, which is covered ... -
Sulphur enrichment in a sediment core from the central western continental margin of India
Rao, P.S.; Rao, Ch.M. (Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1992)Anomalous sulphur values in relation to organic carbon have been found in the sediments of a core collected from the central western continental margin of India. The relationship between organic carbon and sulphur is similar ... -

The composition and the source of hydrocarbons in sediments taken from the tectonically active Andaman Backarc Basin, Indian Ocean
Chernova, T.G.; Rao, P.S.; Pikovskii, Yu.I.; Alekseeva, T.A.; Nath, B.N.; Rao, B.R.; Rao, Ch.M. (Elsevier, 2001)Concentrations of total hydrocarbons in sediments of the tectonically active part of the Andaman Basin ranged from 130-720 (with an average of 349) mg/kg in the most active Spreading zone (the Rift Valley) to 43-180 (with ... -
The Myanmar continental shelf
Ramaswamy, V.; Rao, P.S. (The Geological Society of London, 2014)The Myanmar (Burma) coastline is about 2280 km long, with the continental shelf covering an area of approximately 230 000 km<SUP>2</SUP>. The Myanmar coastline may be divided into the northern Rakhine (Arakan) coast, the ... -
Tidal influence on suspended sediment distribution and dispersal in the northern Andaman Sea and Gulf of Martaban
Ramaswamy, V.; Rao, P.S.; Rao, K.H.; Thwin, S.; Rao, N.S.; Raiker, V. (Elsevier, 2004)Surface and water column profiles of suspended matter collected during April-May 2002, and satellite images were used to study factors influencing suspended sediment concentrations (SSCs) and dispersal in the northern ...
