Appraisal of laboratory culture experiments on benthic foraminifera to assess/develop paleoceanographic proxies
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2007)The laboratory culture studies, carried out on benthic foraminifera, with the aim to refine paleoceanographic / paleoclimatic or environmental application of benthic foraminifera, have been reviewed. The review includes ... -

Indian summer monsoon variability during the Holocene as recorded in sediments of the Arabian Sea: Timing and implications
(TERRAPUB, 2007)Indian monsoon precipitation fluctuated significantly during the Holocene and a reliable reconstruction of the timing of the events and their implications is of great benefit to our understanding of the effect and response ... -
A review of the studies on pteropods from the northern Indian Ocean A review of the studies on pteropods of the northern Indian Ocean region with a report on the pteropods of Irrawaddy continental shelf off Myanmar (Burma)
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2007)Ever since the Challenger Expedition the Indian Ocean pteropods have been recognized as important constituents of biogenic flux. Initially they were of interest only to biologists or the fishery departments and their ... -
Influence of the macrotidal environment on the source to sink pathways of suspended flux in the Gulf of Kachchh, India: Evidence from the Ocean Colour Monitor (IRS-P4)
(Taylor and Francis, 2007)A series of tide-synchronous satellite images, obtained from the Ocean Colour Monitor (OCM) onboard the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite (IRS-P4), in situ measurements and hydrodynamic model simulations were used to describe ... -

Origin of cretaceous phosphorites from the onshore of Tamil Nadu, India
(Indian Academy of Science, 2007)Cretaceous phosphorites from the onshore of Tamil Nadu have been investigated for their origin and compared with those in the offshore. Cretaceous phosphorites occur as light brown to yellowish brown or white nodules in ... -
Velocity and AVO analysis for the investigation of gas hydrate along a profile in the western continental margin
(Springer, 2007)The occurrence of gas hydrate has been inferred from the presence of Bottom-Simulating Reflectors (BSRs) along the western continental margin of India. In this paper, we assess the spatial and vertical distribution of gas ... -
Onshore heavy mineral placers of south Maharashtra, central west coast of India
(Macmillan, India, 2007)Heavy Mineral Placers from coastal sediments of south Maharashtra [105 km stretch from Vijaydurg (16 degrees 30 minutes N) in the North to Redi (15 degrees 43 minutes N) in the South] are studied to understand their ... -

Evaluation of methods to determine the spectral variations of aerosol optical thickness
(Indian Aerosol Science and Technology Association, 2007)The methods used to derive spectral variations of aerosol optical thickness, AOT are evaluated. For our analysis we have used the AOT measured using a hand held sunphotometer at the coastal station on the west coast of ... -
Miniature sonar for obstacle detection on samll AUV Maya
(Allied, 2007)Autonomous platforms are increasingly able to collect in-situ data with least disturbance to the parameters under measurements. To attain high level of autonomy they need to posses capabilities to detect and avoid obstacles ... -
Identification of Msf tide amplification using a network of spatially distributed tide gauges
(Allied, 2007)Attenuation of tidal range (approx. 73%) and amplification of fortnightly Msf tide (approx. 10-fold) in the southern region of Kochi backwaters has been identified based on measurements by a network of spatially distributed ... -
Landuse/landcover studies of areas in and around Paradip Port, east cost of India
(National Institute of Technology, Surathkal, 2007)The coast of Paradip (Orissa, India) is one of the regions where several coastal based developments have taken place in the last 10 years. Satellite imageries of IRS 1D P6 LISS III for the period 1999-2005 have been used ... -
Sea and swell along west coast of India: Study based on measured data
(National Institute of Technology, Surathkal, 2007)Separation of sea and swell from the measured data is important for studying the wind wave dynamics and in the design of coastal and offshore structures. The wave data collected using Datawell directional waverider buoy ... -
Web-enabled and real-time reporting: Cellular based instrumentation for coastal sea level and surge monitoring
(Taylor and Francis, 2007)The 26 December 2004 monster tsunami that struck many South Asian countries, and the severe destruction and devastation wrought by that, have drawn attention to the urgent need for a versatile disaster warning system for ... -
Evaluation of satellite derived spectral diffuse attenuation coefficients
(National Institute of Technology, Surathkal, 2007)Spectral diffuse attenuation K sub(d)(lambda) is an important apparent optical property that provide information about the attenuation of the spectral downwelling solar irradiance with depth in water. The spectral K ... -
