Title <strong>of</strong> Ph.D. Thesis: Palynostratigraphy, Palyn<strong>of</strong>acies and depositional environment <strong>of</strong> late<br />

Palaeocene, Early Eocene sediments <strong>of</strong> Cambay Basin, Gujrat.<br />

Areas <strong>of</strong> research interests:<br />

Working on Palynostratigraphical and Palyn<strong>of</strong>acies analysis <strong>of</strong> Early Tertiary lignite bearing sequences<br />

<strong>of</strong> Bharuch and Bhavnagar districts, Saurastra Basin <strong>of</strong> Gujarat. The spores, pollen grains, din<strong>of</strong>lagellates,<br />

micr<strong>of</strong>oraminiferal linings, fungal fruiting bodies and other palynomorphs preserved in these sequences will be<br />

used to delineate biostratigraphy and palaeoenvironment <strong>of</strong> this fossil bearing sequences. Their quantitative<br />

evaluation, palynozone identification, transition <strong>of</strong> different palyn<strong>of</strong>loral and palyn<strong>of</strong>acies groups in vertical<br />

horizons will define incursion <strong>of</strong> marine and fresh water sediments during the deposition <strong>of</strong> sediments. The<br />

visualization <strong>of</strong> palyn<strong>of</strong>acies constituents in simple light and fluorescence microscopes will provide better<br />

palaeoenviromental interpretations <strong>of</strong> various lithotypes.<br />
