Evaluating microplastic and macroplastic presence in the ephemeral fluvial systems (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

To our knowledge this is the first study that looks at macro- and microplastics in ephemeral fluvial systems in deserts worldwide. By necessity, where formal waste disposal systems cannot be implemented, informal waste disposal takes place. Here, we...

Sand bed river dynamics controlling microplastic flux (2024)
Journal Article

Microplastic contamination of river sediments has been found to be pervasive at the global scale and responsive to plastic and sediment bed properties, the flow regime and the river morphology. The physical controls governing the storage, remobilizat... Read More about Sand bed river dynamics controlling microplastic flux.

Enhancing solids deposit prediction in gully pots with explainable hybrid models: A review (2024)
Journal Article

Urban flooding has made it necessary to gain a better understanding of how well gully pots perform when overwhelmed by solids deposition due to various climatic and anthropogenic variables. This study investigates solids deposition in gully pots thro... Read More about Enhancing solids deposit prediction in gully pots with explainable hybrid models: A review.

Evaluating microplastic presence in the vicinity of Citarum River Dams, West Java: A comprehensive analysis (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The Citarum River travels north westwards from the source in the Wayang-Windu Mountains into the Jakarta Bay and the Java Sea. Once considered the most polluted river in the world the communities around the Citarum River have been involved in the Cit...

Insights into technical challenges in the field of microplastic pollution through the lens of early career researchers (ECRs) and a proposed pathway forward (2023)
Journal Article

Early career researchers (ECR) face a series of challenges related to the inherent difficulties of starting their careers. Microplastic (MP) research is a topical field attracting high numbers of ECRs with diverse backgrounds and expertise from a wea...

How are microplastics incorporated in fluvial sedimentary structures (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

It's predicted there will be ~1.3 billion-tonnes of microplastics (MPs) in the environment by 2040, with rivers transporting 95% into the ocean; this is much higher than previously thought. MPs pose a threat to aquatic ecosystems and could become par... Read More about How are microplastics incorporated in fluvial sedimentary structures.

Storage of MPs in Channel sediments (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This work aims to understand where microplastics (MPs) are stored within rivers. MPs are becoming prevalent in the news as studies are finding up to 14 million-tonnes of MPs on the ocean floor (Barrett et al., 2020). This is an issue as rivers drain...

Origin of lower cretaceous quartzose arenites in northern India and the Indus Basins of Pakistan—The result of provenance composition, weathering or diagenesis? (2022)
Journal Article

Lower Cretaceous (Aptian-Albian) sandstones of the Ghaggar-Hakra Formation in the Barmer Basin of northwest Rajasthan, India, have a complex depositional history which is confusing given they are quartzose arenites. The heavy mineral grains are very...

Presentation / Conference Contribution

Provenance and origin of Lower Cretaceous quartz arenites from the northern Indian Plate: Tropical weathering or a multi-cycled sediment source? (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Lower Cretaceous sediments of the north-western Indian Plate margin deposited in the Barmer, Cambay, Narmada, Kachchh and Jaisalmer basins of the West Indian Rift System (WIRS) and in the Lower and Middle Indus Basins (LMIB) are dominated by mineralo...

Is it possible to work out the lateral migration of preserved fluvial system through outcrop? (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

While channel migration has been the subject of many studies e.g. Bristow 1987, Best et al., 1993; Nardin et al., 2013; where migration has either been considered at a macro-scale with timeslices on seismic data or at a micro- scale on one or two mea...

Provenance of lower cretaceous quartz arenites from the northern Indian Plate: Tropical weathering or a multi-cycled sediment source? (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Introduction.
Lower Cretaceous sediments of the northwestern Indian Plate margin were deposited in the Barmer, Cambay, Narmada, Kachchh and Jaisalmer basins (Figure 1) of the West Indian Rift System (WIRS) and the Lower and Middle Indus Basins (LMIB...

Sedimentology and the facies architecture of the Ghaggar-Hakra Formation, Barmer Basin, India: Implications for early Cretaceous deposition on the north-western Indian Plate margin (2018)
Journal Article

Fluvial strata of the Lower Cretaceous Ghaggar-Hakra Formation are exposed in fault blocks on the central-eastern margin of the Barmer Basin, Rajasthan. The sedimentology of these outcrops are described from 114 logs (thicknesses up to 100m) and 53 t...

Deciphering tectonic controls on fluvial sedimentation within the Barmer Basin, India: The lower cretaceous Ghaggar-Hakra formation (2015)
Journal Article

The Cretaceous of NW India is poorly known from sparse outcrops in Rajasthan and Gujarat. Here, we describe the stratigraphy and sedimentology of outcrops of the Ghaggar-Hakra Formation of probable Lower Cretaceous age from the Sarnoo Hills, eastern...

Geology and regional significance of the Sarnoo Hills, eastern rift margin of the Barmer Basin, NW India (2015)
Journal Article

The Barmer Basin is a poorly understood rift basin in Rajasthan, northwest India. Exposures in the Sarnoo Hills, situated along the central eastern rift margin of the Barmer Basin, reveal a sedimentary succession that accumulated prior to the main Ba...
