Although most data suggest that the India–Eurasia continental collision began approx 45–55 Myr ago, the architecture of the Himalayan–Tibetan orogen is dominated by deformational structures developed in the Neogene period (< 23 Myr... more
The Atlas of Maritime Silk Road Buddhism by Prof Lewis Lancaster contains a series of lectures he presented at the Department of Religious Studies for the University of the West in California. These lectures give a description of the... more
Was near coastal/marine, equatorial influence prevalent in North Indiasubcontinent 18.2 million years ago? Ritesh Arya 168 Arath Bazaar, Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh email: aryadrillers@gmail.com Probably yes and this is what... more
Stratigraphic exposures, fluvial archives and borehole data have been allowed to reconstruct the alluvial history of Late Pleistocene to Late Holocene and climate changes in the monsoonal wet – dry region of lower Damodar Basin (West... more
Sedimentary archives in the Himalayan foreland basin and Indus submarine fan provide the most detailed records of how changing monsoon strength may have affected erosion and the development of tectonic structures in the western Himalaya... more
Three pairs of small, fourth-to sixth-order catchments (approximately 5-80 km 2), draining the margin of the Darjeeling Himalayas into the piedmont, were selected for a comparison of the land-use impact on the morphology and sedimentology... more
അറബികളുടെ കടൽസഞ്ചാരവും വ്യാപാരവും ഇന്ത്യൻ മഹാസമുദ്രതീരത്തെ ജനസമൂഹങ്ങളുമായുള്ള ബന്ധങ്ങളും ആഴത്തിൽ പരിശോധിക്കുകയാണ് പുസ്തകം. വ്യാപാരബന്ധങ്ങളിലൂടെയും സൂഫികളിലൂടെയും സാധ്യമായ ഇസ്ലാമിക വ്യാപനത്തിന്റെ അടരുകളെ ഈ പുസ്തകം പരിചയപ്പെടുത്തുന്നു.... more
Recent studies using coupled atmosphere–ocean models have shown that the tropical Atlantic has a significant impact on the Indian monsoon. In this article, the observational basis for this teleconnection is examined and the physical... more
This article reviews the level of current scientific understanding regarding the impact of future change in the large-scale climate-earth system on ecosystem services. Impacts from sea level rise, ocean acidification, increases in ocean... more
ABSTRACT The Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) is crucial for agriculture and water resources in India. The large spatial and temporal variability of Indian Summer Monsoon Rainfall (ISMR) leads to flood and drought especially over northern... more
‘From Pleistocene to Anthropocene: When Rain Dancing and Fire of Agni are Just Not Enough’ The Exhaustive Research Proposal Draft for the 2020 Grant Application for the VU Distinguished Visiting Fellow in Ethics of the Anthropocene;... more
Keynote address for the University of Virginia conference on "Crossings". Now published in:"China and Beyond in the Medieval Period" edited by Dorothy Wong and Gustav Heldt, Cambria Press, 2014. The beginning of my study of Maritime... more
Stable carbon and oxygen isotopic investigations are carried out on planktonic and benthic foraminifera from an AMS-dated sediment core of the northeast Indian Ocean (NEIO) to infer glacial to Holocene changes in surface and deep waters.... more
The Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM), a significant part of the global monsoon system, is driven by several climate forcing parameters. With the growing pace of global climate change scenario, there is need to focus on generating more... more
In this essay, I examine Velikovsky's claims, that the Maruts of the Vedic Hymns were meteor storms associated with repeated close approaches of the planet Mars, against the actual wording of his source, and find that he used highly... more
Although there is some evidence for an Eocene monsoon the most important intensification of rainfall appears to start ~24 Ma, Early Miocene. Many paleoceanographic proxies for monsoon intensity are linked to wind and do not correlate well... more
Here we present the first record of Sr/Ca variability in a massive Porites lutea coral from the Lakshadweep Archipelago, Arabian Sea. The annual mean sea surface temperature (SST) in this region and the surrounding areas has increased... more
Clay minerals from the Indus Canyon and eastern clinoform since ∼12 ka are uniformly rich in smectite and illite, similar to those from the Holocene Indus flood plains. A systematic enrichment of smectite in the proximal delta compared to... more
See https://rdcu.be/bJgE0 The rise of ammonia emissions in Asia is predicted to increase radiative cooling and air pollution by forming ammonium nitrate particles in the lower troposphere. There is, however, a severe lack of knowledge... more
Simulation of Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) onset over South Asia Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) domain in pentad composite pattern is considered for this study. The latest version of the International Center... more
The Ifaty coral record from off SW Madagascar provide a 336-year coral oxygen isotope record that is used to investigate the natural variability of the western Indian Ocean subtropical SST dipole and ENSO. The coral oxygen isotope record... more

Climate model faces considerable difficulties in simulating the rainfall characteristics of southwest summer monsoon. In this study, the dynamical downscaling of European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecast's (ECMWF's) ERA-Interim... more
δ18O measurements in surface dwelling planktonic foraminifera (PF) Globigerinoides (Gs.) ruber from a sediment core from the central Bay of Bengal (BOB) has recorded a gradual depletion from ~ -1‰ during Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) to ~... more
The South Asian Monson (SAM) is one of the most intense climatic elements yet its initiation and variations are not well established. Dating the deposits of SAM wind-driven currents in IODP cores from the Maldives yields an age of 12.... more
Purpose of the study: The purpose of this present study was to determine the concentration of chloride ions in the water sample which collected different sites and seasons of river Ganga. Chloride ions in the environment can come from... more
To study the ecology of calcareous dinoflagellates we examined the impact of the SW and NE monsoons on cyst formation using sediment trap material, collected at 1032 m water depth, off Somalia from June 1992 to February 1993. The results... more
