Progress in the technology of nautical charting
(Marcel Dekker; New York; USA, 2002)This article describes the various methodologies used from time to time for portraying the geographical details of the earth's surface pertaining to the seas, coastal areas, and features of the seabed for general marine ... -
Paleogene plate tectonic evolution of the Arabian and Eastern Somali basins
(Geological Society of London, UK, 2002)Previous models reviewed for the Paleogene tectonic evolution of the Arabian and Eastern Somali basins and present a model based on a new compilation of magnetic and gravity data. Using plate reconstructions, a self-consistent ... -
Paleogene magnetic isochrons and palaeo-propagators in the Arabian and Eastern Somali basins, NW Indian Ocean
(Geological Society of London, UK, 2002)A revised magnetic isochron map of the conjugate Arabian and Eastern Somali basins based on an up-to-date compilation of Indian, French, and other available sea-surface magnetic data are presented. The magnetic anomaly and ... -
Human influences, ecological transitions and uncertainties of extrapolation of risks of selected sea level rise scenarios to India's coastal megacity, Cochin
(IHP-OHP-UNESCO; Bremerhavan; Germany, 2002)Despite the magnitude and urgency of the issue, scientific understanding of climate change and potential risks to Indian coastal cities have not been fulfilled till recently; though it has long been recognized world wide ... -
Hindcasting cyclonic waves using neural networks
(KREC, Surathkal, 2002)Cyclone generated waves play a significant role in the design of coastal and offshore structures. Instead of conventional numerical models, neural network approach is used in the present study to estimate the wave parameters ... -
Recurrent networks for wave forecasting
(IIT, Bombay, 2002)The tremendous increase in offshore operational activities demands improved wave forecasting techniques. With the knowledge of accurate wave conditions, it is possible to carry out the marine activities such as offshore ... -
Ecology of the marine protists, the Labyrinthulomycetes (Thraustochytrids and Labyrinthulids)
(Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2002)The Labyrinthulomycetes, comprising Thraustochytrids and Labyrinthulids, are marine osmoheterotrophic straminipilan protists which have been isolated from a variety of habitats all over the world. The limited knowledge on ... -
Long-term in vitro generation of amoebocytes from the Indian horseshoe crab Tachypleus gigas (Muller)
(Springer, 2002)Amoebocyte is the single type of cell circulating in the horseshoe crab hemolymph, which plays a major role in the defense system of the animal. Granules present in these cells are sensitive to nanogram quantities of ... -
Characters of chlorine isotopic composition in ocean water
(2002)The chlorine isotopic composition of ocean water was determined using thermal ionization mass spectrometry based on the measurement of Cs sub(2) Cl sup(+) ion. The results show that the sup(37) Cl/ sup(35) Cl ratios are ... -
Does mining pollution affect foraminiferal distribution in Mandovi estuary, Goa, India?
(Museum d'histoire naturelle de Geneve, 2002)A total of 10 surface sediment samples were collected in the premonsoon season in 1990 from the Mandovi estuary, Goa, India. Study revealed presence of 14 species of foraminifera. The foraminiferal data is of special ... -

Surface chlorophyll a estimation in the Arabian Sea using IRS-P4 Ocean Colour Monitor (OCM) satellite data
(Taylor & Francis, 2002)The IRS-P4 satellite launched on 26 May 1999 by Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) carried an Ocean Colour Monitor (OCM) payload, primarily designed to measure ocean colour, the spectral variations of waterleaving ... -
Marine geology
(New Delhi: Indian National Science Academy, 2004)Marine geological investigations for the last four years extend from water column to sedimentary records. The sediment trap experiments in the Arabian Sea showed strong correlation between seasonal variations of pteropod/planktic ... -

Significance of peat on the western continental shelf of India
(Geological Society Of India, 1997)Peat layers 2 to 30 cm in thickness, 22 to 46 m below present sea level, are found along the inner shelf of India, up to 27 km from the coast. They are rich in plant debris, organic carbon and sulfur. These organic-rich ...
