Pteropod aragonitic shells contribute to 12% of biogenic inorganic carbon flux to the world ocean but are also prone to dissolution. Though their state of preservation and generic ratios, namely Creseis/Limacina have been used as a proxy for palaeoclimatic reconstruction, their taxonomic attributes have remained unexplored. The present study reports 20 pteropod species from a single location in the northeastern Arabian Sea offshore of Saurashtra, all of which show the same degree of preservation throughout the core. The occurrence of mesopelagic fauna in the study area located on the shelf region however points to palaeoenvironmental changes and underscores the importance of employing pteropod assemblages for palaeoclimatic reconstructions in the study area.
翼足目文石壳占世界海洋生物源无机碳通量的 12%,但也容易溶解。尽管翼足目动物的保存状况和种属比例(即Creseis/Limacina)已被用作古气候重建的替代物,但它们的分类属性仍未得到探索。本研究报告了来自索拉什特拉(Saurashtra)近海阿拉伯海东北部一个地点的 20 种翼足类动物,所有这些动物在整个核心区都显示出相同的保存程度。然而,位于陆架地区的研究区域出现了中层动物群,这表明了古环境的变化,并强调了在研究区域利用翼足目动物群进行古气候重建的重要性。

Detailed palynological investigations have been carried out to reconstruct stratigraphy and interpretation of depositional environment of Tura and Pre-Tura sedimentary sections in Dhansiri Valley of Upper Assam Shelf, Assam & Assam-Arakan Basin. Sediments of the Tura Formation dated as Early Eocene and interpreted to be deposited under subtidal to inner shelf environment. Pre-Tura sediments, developed in studied wells, led to the identification of Dergaon, Bamangaon and Moabund formations with intervening unconformities, having different tectonic history and distinct palynofossil assemblages. Early Permian sediments of the Dergaon Formation (=Talchir Formation), the oldest in the basin are deposited under the intracratonic phase, overlie the metamorphic basement complex. The sediments of the Dergaon Formation are unconformably overlain by the Bamangaon Formation deposited during the Early Cretaceous, whereas, in well DR-A, the sediments of the Dergaon Formation are directly overlain by the Moabund Formation corresponding to the Late Maastrichtian age. The sediments of the Tura Formation overlie the Maobund Formation in well DR-A, and they overlie the Bamangaon Formation in the rest of the wells in Dhansiri Valley.
对阿萨姆邦和阿萨姆-阿拉干盆地上阿萨姆陆架Dhansiri山谷的图拉和前图拉沉积剖面进行了详细的孢粉学调查,重建了地层并解释了沉积环境。图拉组沉积年代为早始新世,沉积于潮下至内陆架环境。研究井中发育的前图拉期沉积鉴定出德冈、巴曼加翁和莫阿布等不整合地层,具有不同的构造历史和不同的孢粉化石组合。早二叠世盆地最古老的德冈组(=Talchir组)沉积于克拉通内期下,覆于变质基底杂岩之上。DR-A井Dergaon组沉积与早白垩世Bamangaon组沉积不整合叠加,而DR-A井Dergaon组沉积则直接与Maastrichtian晚期的Moabund组叠加。DR-A井的图拉组沉积物覆盖在Maobund组上,Dhansiri Valley其他井的图拉组沉积物覆盖在Bamangaon组上。

The Sillakudi Formation is a sandstone-dominated succession bounded by unconformities. It represents the oldest unit of the Ariyalur Group deposited during the Campanian under fully established passive margin depositional conditions. The present study is an attempt to interpret the depositional palaeoenvironment of Sillakudi Formation based on its trace fossil content, supported by sedimentological evidences. Detailed sedimentological and ichnological observations were undertaken in multiple traverses and spot locations across the Sillakudi Formation. The Sillakudi Formation is subdivided into four facies associations, each represented by a distinct ichnology and environment of deposition. Unit 1 comprises conglomerates grading upwards into pebbly sandstones almost devoid of trace fossils except a few Planolites isp. indicating a high-energy foreshore-to-shoreface environment. Unit 2 consists of glauconitic sandstones with Ophiomorpha nodosa, O. annulata, Thalassinoides isp. and Skolithos linearis, belonging to the Skolithos ichnofacies indicating deposition in shoreface to offshore transition environments. Unit 3 comprises pebbly to very coarse-grained massive sandstones, characterised by an almost monospecific Skolithos ichnofacies indicating rapid colonisation of beds in a delta-front associated debris flows and calcareous sandstones alternating with claystones containing a diverse Cruziana ichnofacies with an ichnoassemblage comprising of Trichichnus isp., Scolicia prisca var. laminites, S. ?prisca, S. vertebralis, Palaeophycus tubularis, Planolites beverleyensis, P. montanus, Taenidium isp., Thalassinoides suevicus, Ophiomorpha isp., Chondrites isp. and Phycodes isp., pointing towards deposition in calmer, possibly dysoxic outer shelf prodeltaic environments. Unit 4 has pebbly to gritty cross-bedded sandstones exhibiting the development of networks of Thalassinoides isp. and Ophiomorpha isp., indicating shallow sub-tidal to intertidal conditions of deposition. The overall succession is interpreted to show initial deepening followed by shallowing.
西拉库地组是一个以不整合面为界的砂岩为主的序列。它代表了坎帕期在完全确定的被动边缘沉积条件下沉积的阿里亚鲁尔群中最古老的单元。本研究试图根据西拉库底组的微量化石含量,结合沉积学证据,对其沉积古环境进行解释。详细的沉积学和技术观察是在横跨西拉库地组的多个穿越点和地点进行的。西拉库底组可划分为四个相组,每个相组都代表着不同的沉积技术和沉积环境。第1单元由砾岩组成,这些砾岩向上递变为含砾砂岩,除了一些Planolites isp外,几乎没有任何化石痕迹。表明这是一个高能的前滨-滨面环境。第2单元由海绿石砂岩组成,其中有Ophiomorpha nodosa, O. annulata, Thalassinoides isp。和斯科利索线相,属于斯科利索相,表明沉积在滨向海过渡环境中。第3单元包括卵石到颗粒非常粗的块状砂岩,其特征是几乎单一的斯科利索斯岩相,表明三角洲前缘伴生泥石流中床的快速定殖,钙质砂岩与粘土岩交替存在,包含多种克鲁齐亚纳岩相,其岩石组合包括Trichichnus isp。,斑纹棘虫,斑纹棘虫,脊椎棘虫,管状古棘虫,贝弗利扁石器,山棘虫,带绦虫。,海蛸,蛇胚目;,球粒陨石。和Phycodes isp。,指出沉积在较平静的,可能是缺氧的外陆架原生三角洲环境。第4单元有卵石和砂质交错层状砂岩,显示了Thalassinoides isp网络的发展。和蛇麻草。,表明浅层潮下至潮间带的沉积条件。整体演替被解释为先加深后变浅。

The present study reports the occurrence of diatom taxa, their distribution and ecology in Thamirabarani River between the study areas Naranammalpuram and Punnakayal, covering the districts of Tirunelveli and Thoothukudiin Tamil Nadu, India. The study employs diatoms collected from 10 different locations in the Thamirabarani River to monitor its quality. A total of 40 diatom taxa belonging to 20 genera were recorded in the study area. The dominant presence of diatom taxa, such as Aulacoseira ambigua, Cocconeis placentula, Cyclotella meneghiniana, Cymbella tropica, Discostella stelligera, Gyrosigma acuminatum, Navicula cryptonella, Nitzschia amphibia, Planothidium lanceolatum, Staurosirella pinnata, and the water quality index values (29–48) recorded at sites 1 to 7 indicate oligotrophic due to good flow of water. The abundant of diatom taxa, such as Diadesmis confervacea, Gomphonema parvulum, Nitzschia palea and Pinnularia gibba, were recorded at sites 8–10, and the water quality indices (100–110) indicate eutrophication attributable to less flow of water, high dispersion of cremation ashes (the casting ceremony) and anthropogenic activities. Particularly, locations around Punnakayal are most polluted due to the dumping of fish wastes as well as stagnant water.

The Kachchh basin is located on the northwestern margin of India. The basin consists of a relatively continuous sequence of sediments from the Mesozoic, followed by the Deccan Traps and finally a complete sequence of the Cenozoic sediments. The Cenozoic sediments of Kachchh basin are mainly shallow marine deposits characterised by five formations viz. Matanomadh, Naredi, Harudi, Fulra Limestone and Maniyara Fort Formation. The Maniyara Fort Formation belongs to the Oligocene age. The field and petrographic characteristics of the Oligocene limestones from the Golay river section were studied in order to understand the depositional environment. The petrographic investigation of the carbonate rocks of three members of the Maniyara Fort Formation, namely Lumpy Clay Member, Coral Limestone Member and Bermoti Member provides important information for understanding the depositional facies and diagenetic signatures. The Lumpy Clay Member has shale-siltstones with interbedded limestones, characteristically composed of a significant proportion of detrital grains of quartz and some lithic fragments. The lithic fragments are sub-angular to rounded, which indicates substantial transport. They are also worn down and broken, bear small cracks which are filled by micritic matrix or mud. The presence of stylolitic seams within the limestone (though not significant) along with mud filling is also noticed. The dissolution is not prominent, pointing towards shallow burial of the sediments. Paucity of marine fossils as well as the rarity of foraminifera in the Lumpy Clay Member indicate a restricted to semi-restricted shallow marine environment. The limestones of the Coral Limestone Member are petrographically classified as packstone, wackestone and mudstone. Thus, the environment of deposition seems to have varied from restricted lagoonal to shallow marine environment. The Bermoti Member is characterised by a lens of claystone, which consists of both greyish to yellow coloured claystones interbedded with limestones. The Bermoti limestones are petrographically classified as packstone, wackestone and mudstone assemblage. The limestones were observed to be highly micritised, which indicates open, shallow marine settings. The Maniyara Fort Formation, thus characterised by wackestone-packstone-mudstone facies of carbonates, is interpreted to be part of a carbonate ramp system. The limestones from Maniyara Fort Formation exhibit signatures of marine as well as meteoric diagenesis.
Kachchh盆地位于印度西北边缘。盆地由相对连续的中生代沉积层序组成,接着是德干圈闭,最后是完整的新生代沉积层序。Kachchh盆地新生代沉积以浅海沉积为主,主要有Matanomadh组、Naredi组、Harudi组、Fulra灰岩组和Maniyara Fort组5组。马尼亚拉堡组属于渐新世。研究了高莱河段渐新世灰岩的场域特征和岩相特征,以了解其沉积环境。对马尼亚拉堡组3段(块状粘土段、珊瑚灰岩段和Bermoti段)碳酸盐岩进行岩相学研究,为认识该区沉积相和成岩特征提供了重要信息。块状粘土段为泥质粉砂岩与灰岩互层,其特征是由相当比例的石英碎屑颗粒和一些岩屑组成。岩屑呈亚角到圆形,表明有大量的运输。它们也被磨损和破坏,产生细小的裂缝,这些裂缝被泥晶基质或泥浆填充。在石灰石(虽然不显著)内的花柱缝的存在以及泥浆充填也被注意到。溶蚀作用不明显,表明沉积物埋藏较浅。块状粘土段海洋化石的缺乏和有孔虫的罕见,表明受限制至半限制的浅海环境。珊瑚灰岩段的灰岩在岩石学上可分为包岩、微晶岩和泥岩。因此,沉积环境似乎从有限的泻湖到浅海环境发生了变化。Bermoti成员的特点是粘土岩透镜体,由灰色到黄色的粘土岩与石灰石互层组成。Bermoti灰岩在岩石学上可分为包岩组合、碎屑岩组合和泥岩组合。石灰石被观察到高度微晶化,这表明开放的浅海环境。马尼亚拉堡组以碳酸盐岩的微砾岩-包覆岩-泥岩相为特征,被认为是碳酸盐岩斜坡体系的一部分。马尼亚拉堡组灰岩具有海相和大气成岩作用的特征。

This article reports two echinoid taxa viz. Ilarionia sindensis Duncan and Sladen (1884) and Porocidaris schmidelii Münster in Goldfus (1830) from the middle Eocene Sylhet Limestone of Mikir Hills, Assam. P. schmidelii is found from the Lutetian (middle Eocene) to the Priabonian (upper Eocene) in the following regions: NE of Spain, Biarritz (Southwestern France), Angoumé (Southern Aquitaine, France), Carinthia (Southern Austria), Venetian region of Italy Provence, Southern Alps of French, Istria (Croatia), Persian Gulf, Oman and Egypt. I. sindensis was first reported from the Eocene of Sindh province from the Khirthar Series (Pakistan) and Madagascar. It is also recorded from the Bartonian–Priabonian in the following regions: NE Spain, Biarritz in Southwestern France, Angoumé in Southern Aquitaine-France, Carinthia in Southern Austria, Italian region of Veneto, Provence and southern French Alps, Persian Gulf, Oman, Egypt and Istria. They are systematically described to know their stratigraphic, palaeoenvironment and palaeogeographic distribution.

A better understanding on the connection between pollen assemblages and the vegetation that produced them is crucial to reconstruct past habitats and vegetation. Hence, it is necessary to comprehend the level of representation of plants in the modern pollen rain in a given study area. To ascertain the composition of pollen deposited on the surface sediments, palynological analysis of 19 surface soil (SS) samples and moss cushions (MSs) taken from various sites on the surface of the Shimla Water Catchment Wildlife Sanctuary (SWCWS), Kufri, Himachal Pradesh (India) was used in the current study. The dominance of arboreal pollen (trees and shrubs) over the non-arboreal pollen (herbs) was observed. Among the trees, conifers such as Cedrus deodara, Pinus wallichiana, Picea smithiana and Abies pindrow were found in MSs as well as in SS samples. The representation of these taxa corresponds with their factual presence in the forest floristics in the region. The moist and shady habitats loving broad-leaved tree elements such as Quercus and Rhododendron were also found in good numbers. Two multivariate statistical methods, cluster analysis and principal components analysis, were used to study the associations of studies pollen taxa and the variability among them. All the 19 samples were clustered into four. This analysis will help to interpret the palaeodata whether the landscape was influenced by anthropogenic activities or not in the recent past.
更好地了解花粉组合与产生它们的植被之间的联系对于重建过去的栖息地和植被至关重要。因此,有必要了解某研究区现代花粉雨中植物的代表性水平。为了确定地表沉积物中花粉的组成,本研究对印度喜马偕尔邦库夫里西姆拉流域野生动物保护区(SWCWS)地表不同地点采集的19个表层土壤(SS)样品和苔藓垫层(MSs)进行了孢粉学分析。树栖花粉(乔木和灌木)优于非树栖花粉(草本)。其中,在ms和SS样品中均发现了雪松(cedus deodara)、松(Pinus wallichiana)、云杉(Picea smithiana)和冷杉(Abies pindrow)等针叶树。这些分类群的表现与它们在该地区森林植物区系中的实际存在相一致。在潮湿和阴凉的生境中,也发现了大量的阔叶树木,如栎和杜鹃花。采用聚类分析和主成分分析两种多元统计方法,研究了研究区花粉分类群间的相关性及其变异。所有19个样本被聚为4个。这一分析将有助于解释古数据是否在最近的过去受到了人类活动的影响。

An isolated rodent lower molar is being reported from Mohand II locality (gastropod/otolith locality) of the Siwalik Group exposed in the Mohand area, along the Saharanpur–Dehradun road. The fossils yielding mudstone units from the Siwalik Group exposed in the Doon Valley, Mohand, in the western Himalayan region. The occurrence of this murine mouse lineage, Parapelomys, is consistent with the late Miocene age based on palaeomagnetic reversal stratigraphy. The fossil represents a species apparently more primitive and older than the type species of the genus Parapelomys robertsi. The find documents the geographic range of this mouse lineage 500 km southeast of the type area for the species in the Potwar Plateau, Pakistan. The associated fauna comprises gastropods, ostracods, cyprinid fish and crocodiles in our collection.

Establishing modern pollen analogues under various vegetation types in a location is necessary without which it is difficult to accurately interpret fossil pollen assemblages in any region in terms of the past environment and palaeoclimate. We have analysed the modern pollen dataset of 30 surface soil and sediment samples from the forested, cropland, wetland and river sites of the Karimganj District in south Assam, to comprehend the connection between the recent pollen assemblage and the vegetation patterns in the Barak Valley. The overall pollen data reflect the tropical moist deciduous and semi-evergreen forest comprising Syzygium, Schleichera, Terminalia, Lagerstroemia, Duabanga, Sapotaceae, Ilex, Mesua and Schima under a warm and humid climate in response to rainfall variations in the region. The presence of Euphorbiaceae and Convolvulaceae inferred high monsoonal activity in and around the region. A robust relationship between local herbaceous vegetation and pollen was observed. The steady occurrence of cereal pollen (average 18.67%) along with other cultural pollen taxa like Brassicaceae, Coriandrum and Solanaceae illustrate intense agricultural activity around the valley areas. Multivariate principal component analysis (PCA) and box plot were applied to the quantified data obtained from pollen frequency analyses of the surface samples which clearly revealed a significant variation and similarity in vegetation types. Thus, an attempt has been commenced to precisely observe the behavioural pattern of modern pollen deposition in a varied depositional setting, which could, in turn, help in assessing the expanse of agricultural practices and the depth of deterioration of pristine forests and surrounding areas. This modern training dataset could also help in the precise reconstruction of past climate and vegetation shifts in the Barak Valley region. A correlation of regional palynodata with other regions of the Indian subcontinent and Indo-Burma will also be assessed for better interpretation.
在一个地区不同植被类型下建立现代花粉类似物是必要的,否则很难根据过去的环境和古气候准确地解释任何地区的化石花粉组合。我们分析了来自阿萨姆邦南部Karimganj地区的森林、农田、湿地和河流遗址的30个表层土壤和沉积物样本的现代花粉数据集,以了解最近花粉组合与巴拉克山谷植被模式之间的联系。总体花粉资料反映了该地区在温暖湿润气候下,由Syzygium、Schleichera、Terminalia、Lagerstroemia、Duabanga、Sapotaceae、Ilex、Mesua和Schima组成的热带湿润落叶半常绿林对降雨变化的响应。大戟科和旋花科的存在表明该地区及其周围季风活动频繁。观察到当地草本植被与花粉之间的密切关系。谷类花粉的稳定分布(平均为18.67%)以及芸苔科、芫荽科和茄科等其他文化花粉类群表明山谷地区农业活动强烈。利用多变量主成分分析(PCA)和箱形图对地表样品花粉频率分析的量化数据进行了分析,结果清楚地揭示了植被类型的显著差异和相似性。因此,已经开始尝试精确地观察现代花粉在不同沉积环境下沉积的行为模式,这反过来可以帮助评估农业实践的范围以及原始森林和周围地区退化的深度。这个现代训练数据集还可以帮助精确重建巴拉克山谷地区过去的气候和植被变化。还将评估区域孢粉数据与印度次大陆和印度-缅甸其他区域的相关性,以便更好地解释。

The Oligocene–Miocene Asmari Formation is a sequence of shallow-water carbonate carbonates in the Zagros Basin. This formation is a significant oil reservoir that was formed in the Zagros foreland basin in southwestern Iran. The Razan section, located in the northwest of Zagros in the Lorestan province, was investigated to study microfacies types and evaluate the sedimentary environment. This section was then compared with the MakhmalKuh and Dehloran sections. It comprises limestone units with thin to medium strata, sometimes thick-bedded limestone, and other skeletal and non-skeletal components. Based on the biostratigraphy studies, 24 foraminifer genera and species have been identified. Among the foraminifera, the species of Peneroplis farsensis, Peneroplis evolutus, Austrotrilina howchini, Austrotrilina asmarensis, Dendritinarangi, Quinqueloculina sp., Triloculina trigonula, Pyrgo sp., Polymorphinids, Spiroluculina sp. and Meandropsina anahensis are the most important specimens. Based on identified co-occurrence taxa, the Austrotrilina howchini–Peneroplis evolutus assemblage zone has been recognised in the study area, which indicates early Miocene (Aquitanian). Texture analysis and faunal assemblages led to the recognition of fourteen microfacies. Based on the petrographic analysis, five depositional settings were determined in the studied section: (a) the outer ramp settings dominated by pelagic foraminifera, bryozoan, echinoid and benthic foraminifera such as Nummulites, Rotalia, Dendritina and Meandropesina iranica as a proxy for relatively deep marine conditions; (b) the mid ramp, characterised by sizeable perforate foraminifera such as Amphistegina, Operculina, Heterostegina and planktonic foraminifera; (c) the barrier, marginal marine environment dominated by foraminifera such as Miogypsinoides sp., Peneroplis, Meandropsina, Dendritina and Neoalveolina, as well as peloid and corallinacean algae; (d) the lagoon dominated by benthic foraminifera Austrotrillina, Dendritina, Peneroplis, Miogypsinoides, Borelis, Archaias, miliolids and red algae and (e) the tidal flat, the shallowest part of the inner ramp, dominated by fenestral dolo-mudstone without any fossils. The faunal assemblages represent warm tropical waters under euphotic and mesophotic conditions in a homoclinal ramp.
渐新统—中新统阿斯马里组是扎格罗斯盆地的一套浅水碳酸盐岩。该组是伊朗西南部扎格罗斯前陆盆地形成的重要油藏。在Lorestan省Zagros西北部的Razan剖面进行了微相类型研究和沉积环境评价。然后将这部分与MakhmalKuh和Dehloran部分进行比较。它包括具有薄到中等地层的石灰岩单元,有时是厚层石灰岩,以及其他骨架和非骨架成分。通过生物地层学研究,鉴定出有孔虫属和种24种。在有孔虫中,farsenis Peneroplis evolutus、Austrotrilina howchini、Austrotrilina asmarensis、Dendritinarangi、Quinqueloculina sp.、trigonula、Pyrgo sp.、Polymorphinids、Spiroluculina sp.和meandropensis是最重要的标本。根据已鉴定的共生类群,在研究区确定了Austrotrilina howchini-Peneroplis evolutus组合带,属于早中新世(阿基塔尼亚期)。结构分析和动物组合鉴定出14个微相。根据岩石学分析,确定了研究剖面的5种沉积环境:(a)外斜坡沉积环境以Nummulites、Rotalia、Dendritina和Meandropesina iranica等上层有孔虫、苔藓虫、针孔虫和底栖有孔虫为主,代表了相对较深的海洋环境;(b)中部斜坡,以大型有孔有孔虫为特征,如Amphistegina、Operculina、Heterostegina和浮游有孔虫;(c)以miogypsinides sp.、Peneroplis、Meandropsina、Dendritina和Neoalveolina等有孔虫以及球藻和珊瑚藻为主的屏障边缘海洋环境;(d)泻湖以底栖有孔虫austrortrillina、Dendritina、Peneroplis、miogypsinides、Borelis、archaeas、milolids和红藻为主;(e)内坡道最浅处潮滩以无化石的门侧白云岩为主。动物群组合代表了温暖的热带水域在同斜坡的中光和中光条件下。
