Reconstruction of temperature for Cenozoic and Proterozoic Ocean water using clumped isotope thermometry
Clumped isotope thermometry is a novel tool which is used for the determination of formation temperature for carbonates of diverse origin and understanding different marine and terrestrial processes. The primary interest ...
A geochemical and Nd-Sr-Ca isotopic study of silicate weathering, crustal recycling and petrogenesis of carbonatites
Weathering of silicate rocks releases cations and anions which are transported to the oceans by
rivers where calcium carbonate precipitates from the seawater. This process results in the net
consumption of atmospheric ...
Improved laboratory and computational models for thermal core–mantle interaction
The Earth's magnetic field is generated by thermochemical convection within its
fluid
outer core. The near-stationary high-latitude magnetic
flux concentrations in the present
day field indicate that convective ...
Understanding the dynamics and evolution of cratons
The earth is the only rocky planet in the solar system that exhibits plate tectonics. One of the basic tenets of plate-tectonics is that it recycles the lithosphere within a few hundred million years. No oceanic lithosphere, ...
Stable isotope and biogeochemical study of arsenic contamination in shallow groundwater at seasonal time intervals from West Bengal (Nadia district)
Seasonal monitoring of groundwater is essential to ascertain safe water for the population and
ecosystem for drinking, irrigation, domestic purposes and to keep track of groundwater
quality with natural (climate change ...
Tectonic Evolution of Central Madurai Block, Southern India and Potential Heat Source for High-Temperature Metamorphism
(2018-01-29)
The Madurai Block is the largest granulite block in Southern Granulite Terrain which lies between Palghat-Cauvary shear zone in the North and Achankovil shear zone in the South. This terrain underwent extreme crustal ...
High Resolution Reconstruction of Rainfall Using Stable Isotopes in Growth Bands of Terrestrial Gastropod
(2017-10-25)
Reconstruction studies of seasonal rainfall utilizing stable isotope based proxy approach suffer from the limitations of time resolutions. Conventional methods and archives limit the achievable resolution to annual scales. ...

(2017-10-25)
Reconstruction studies of seasonal rainfall utilizing stable isotope based proxy approach suffer from the limitations of time resolutions. Conventional methods and archives limit the achievable resolution to annual scales. ...
Mesoproterozoic Suturing Of Archean Crustal Blocks In Western Peninsular India : New Insights On India-Madagascar Correlations
(2017-08-21)
The structural lineament mapping of southern India along withgeological, geochronological datasets help in redefining the Precambrian crustal blocks.The newly proposed Kumta and Mercara suture zones welding Archean crustal ...
Seismotectonics Of The Andaman-Nicobar Plate Boundary And Evaluation Of 2004 Deformational And Depositional Features Towards Assessing Past Tsunamigenic Earthquakes
(2016-07-11)
Tsunami hazards were greatly underestimated along the coasts of countries bordering the northeastern Indian Ocean until the occurrence of the 26 December 2004, Mw 9.2 earthquake and its ensuing tsunami. Sourced off the ...
