The present paper is the first document of a detailed geochemical and mineralogical study of
muddy to sandy mud estuarine sediments of the Hugli River collected from five different sites …

Surface sediments collected at the Tirumalairajan river estuary and their surrounding coastal
areas were analyzed for the bulk metal concentration. The sediments were collected from …

The geochemistry of the suspended particulate matter (SPM) collected during the monsoon
was determined to identify the sources of SPM and to understand the physicochemical …

Estuarine sediments are major reservoirs for the metals. Distribution and mobility of metals
within estuaries depends strongly on their specific chemical form. In the present study …

The purpose of this study was to assess the chemical partitioning of selected heavy metals
(Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Pb, Cr, Co and Ni) in 10 surface sediments at Tirumalairajan River Estuary …

The concentration and distribution of selected trace metals in surface sediments of the
Mandovi estuary were studied to determine the extent of anthropogenic inputs from mining …

Geochemical analyses of bottom sediment from rivers flowing through Orissa State, India
indicated that trace element concentrations were extremely variable, and commonly higher …

Two sediment cores collected from a mudflat sedimentary environment of Swarna estuary
(S3) and Gurpur estuary (MF6), representing the middle estuarine region, Karnataka, India …

Indian coastal waters are subjected to considerable pressure from sewage and industrial
wastes, which are responsible for the contamination of the coastal sediments with …

Four sediment cores collected from the water depths varying between 1.0 and 1.50 m in
estuarine and tidal zones between Chennai and Pondicherry, along the Tamil Nadu coast …
