A re-evaluation of palaeoclimatic conditions during the Pleistocene and Holocene from the western continental shelf of India - Evidences from the petrology of the limestones
Rao, V.P.; Nair, R.R. (Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)The western shelf of India is characterisEd. by the presence of Recent clayey sediments on the inner shelf and relict carbonate sediments and a variety of limestones on the outer shelf. The limestones of the outer continental ... -

Bathymetric study of the Neotectonic Naini Lake in outer Kumaun Himalaya
Hashimi, N.H.; Pathak, M.C.; Jauhari, P.; Nair, R.R.; Sharma, A.K.; Bhakuni, D.S.; Bisht, M.K.S.; Valdiya, K.S. (Geological Society of India, 1993)The Naini Lake is a product of rotational movement on a NW-SE trending Nainital Fault, quite after the establishment of the drainage of a mature stream named Balia Nala. Detailed bathymetric study, permits division of this ... -

Carbonate mineralogy and faunal relationship in tropical shallow water marine sediments: Cape Comorin, India
Hashimi, N.H.; Nair, R.R.; Kidwai, R.M.; Rao, V.P. (Elsevier, 1982)The carbonate mineralogy of Recent sediments from the western and eastern continental shelves around Cape Comorin off the southern tip of India was determined by X-ray diffraction analyses. The results show that in the ... -

Hashimi, N.H.; Nair, R.R. (Indian Association of Sedimentology, 1989)Seventy-five sediment samples collected from the Kerala continental shelf and slope during the 17th and 71st Cruises of RV Gaveshani were analysed by X-ray diffraction for clay mineral content. The distribution of total ... -
Clay mineralogy of the mud banks of Cochin
Nair, R.R.; Murty, P.S.N. (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 ... -
Climatic aridity over India 11,000 years ago: Evidence from feldspar distribution in shelf sediments
Hashimi, N.H.; Nair, R.R. (Elsevier, 1986)Feldspars and quartz contents of sand and silt fractions of forty three samples from the western continental shelf of India were determined by the X-ray diffraction method. The results indicate that the feldspar content ... -
