The short-term variability in the Indian monsoon is well documented through instrumental
records and paleoclimatic studies of the recent geological past. However, the effect of mid …

The ecological preferences of living benthic foraminifera from the riverine influx dominated
eastern continental margin of India have been studied. The living benthic foraminifera were …

The huge riverine influx and associated processes decrease the ambient salinity, stratify the
water column, modulate the oxygen-deficient zone, and are also responsible for the recent …

The response of intertidal foraminifera and their morphological characteristics to
temperature changes in laboratory microhabitats is poorly studied. Therefore, a benthic …

The ambient environmental parameters have a great bearing on the morphology of living
flora and fauna. In this study, we tested this hypothesis on one of the most dominant groups …

The planktic foraminifera are an important component of the global carbon cycle, as they
sequester the carbon, thus burying it in the sediments for ages. The burial of planktic …

Seasonal variability in fresh water influx and ingression of sea water establish a unique
transition zone in Asia's largest coastal lagoon–the Chilika lake. The seasonal variability in …

Metal contamination in the Arctic region has increased over the years despite its remote and
isolated location. Thus, to evaluate the bioavailable fractions of various metals and their …

Population growth around water bodies is deteriorating environmental quality. The benthic
foraminiferal and trace element concentration in a pair of short sediment cores were used to …

The first and last occurrence datums of species are often used as biostratigraphic markers to
establish chronology beyond the range of radiocarbon dating. One such datum, the last …
