Multivariate and geo-spatial approach for seawater quality of Chidiyatappu Bay, south Andaman Islands, India

TL;DR: Considering the pristine nature of this bay, seawater samples collected from 12 sampling stations covering three seasons were analyzed and Principal Component Analysis revealed 69.9% of total variance and exhibited strong factor loading for nitrite, chlorophyll a and phaeophytin.

Comparison of Monsoonal change of water quality parameters between 1983 and 2008 in a tropical estuary in Northeastern India: role of phytoplankton and community metabolism

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the fluvial fluxes and estuarine transport of nutrients from a tropical river (Mahanadi River) in Northeastern India and compared select nutrient and water quality parameters between 1983 and 2008.

World-Wide Delivery of River Sediment to the Oceans

TL;DR: The authors showed that rivers with large sediment loads (annual discharges greater than about $15 \times 10^{6}$ tons) contribute about $7 −times 10 −9$ tons of suspended sediment to the ocean yearly.

Geomorphic/Tectonic Control of Sediment Discharge to the Ocean: The Importance of Small Mountainous Rivers

TL;DR: In this paper, data from 280 rivers discharging to the ocean indicates that sediment loads/yields are a log-linear function of basin area and maximum elevation of the river basin.
