The Bengal basin, the largest fluvio-deltaic sedimentary system on Earth, is located in
Bangladesh and three eastern states of India. Sediment accumulates in the basin from the …

The Ganga basin in the Himalayan foreland is a part of the world's largest area of modern
alluvial sedimentation and supports a population of over 200 million people. The Ganga …

Mahananda River is an important river in India and Bangladesh, as the people of both the
countries use the water extensively, without sufficient and reliable information about water …

Sediments carried in suspension represent a fundamental part of fluvial transport.
Nonetheless, largely because of technical problems, they have been hitherto widely …

Sediment cores from the Ganges–Brahmaputra delta in Bangladesh were examined for
sedimentological character, clay mineralogy, elemental trends (C, N, S), and 14C …

This study investigates the natural processes that control concentration of detrital minerals
and consequently chemical elements in river sand. The novelty of our approach consists in …

We present an extensive river sediment dataset covering the Ganga basin from the
Himalayan front downstream to the Ganga mainstream in Bangladesh. These sediments …

Abstract The Indo-Gangetic aquifer is one of the world's most important transboundary water
resources, and the most heavily exploited aquifer in the world. To better understand the …

Continental chemical weathering is central in Earth's surface biogeochemical cycles as it
redistributes elements across reservoirs such as the crust and the oceans. However the …

X-ray diffraction (XRD) mineralogical and grain-size analyses indicate that inner continental
shelf sediments in the East China Sea (ECS) represent a unique mixing of clays derived …
