Full textLocated in the Northern Indian Ocean, the Bay of Bengal (BoB) is forced by intense seasonally reversing monsoon winds. Heavy rainfall and strong river runoffs associated with the southwest monsoon makes the bay one of the freshest regions in the tropical ocean. This surface fresh water flux induces strong near surface salinity stratification, which reduces vertical mixing and maintains high sea surface temperatures and deep atmospheric convection and rainfall. This intense near surface haline stratification has therefore profound implications on the air-sea exchanges, and on the climate of the neighboring countries. The goal of my thesis is to improve the description of the Sea surface salinity (SSS) variability in the BoB and to understand the oceanic and atmospheric processes driving this variability at seasonal and interannual timescales. Existing climatologies reveal a marked seasonal cycle of SSS with an intense freshening of the northern part of the basin during fall that subsequently spreads along the western boundary. This fresh pool finally erodes during winter, to reach its minimal extent in spring. The paucity of in-situ SSS observations however prevented to monitor the interannual fluctuations around this seasonal picture with a good spatial coverage. The recent development of SSS remote-sensing capabilities (with SMOS and AQUARIUS satellites) may help with that regard. However this is particularly challenging for a small semi-enclosed basin such as the Bay of Bengal, because of the potential contamination of the SSS signal by radio frequency interferences and land effects in the near coastal environment. A thorough validation of these satellite products to an exhaustive gridded in-situ dataset shows that Aquarius reasonably captures the large-scale observed seasonal and interannual SSS evolution everywhere in the BoB while SMOS does not perform better than existing climatologies, advocating for improvements of its SSS retrieval algorithm there

Full textThe main objective of this PhD study is to reconstruct the evolution of the Asian monsoons during the Quaternary and their impacts on the continental erosion and sedimentary transfers from land to sea by the investigation of sediments cores collected in the Northern Bay of Bengal, the western Philippines Sea and the Arabian Sea. The implemented scientific strategy involves mineralogical (clay size fraction), sedimentological (grain-size laser) and geochemical (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr and εNd) analyses in order to establish sedimentary sources, conditions of erosion and transfer of sediments to the Ocean. The analyses of the concentration of Rare Earth Elements (REE) and εNd were also made on seawater and foraminifera samples to better constrain the εNd as a proxy of weathering in a context of strong seasonal variations of sediment discharges by Himalayan rivers. Clay mineralogy and laser grain-size analyses have been conducted on sediments from core MD06-3050 collected on the Benham Rise (Philippines Sea). Siliciclastic grain-size results indicate variations of the relative proportion of three grain-size sub-populations corresponding to eolian dusts (EM2 about 9-11 μm) and Luzon rivers inputs (EM1 about 2-5 μm and EM3 about 19-25 μm). The long-term evolutions of the EM1/EM2 and smectite/(illite+chlorite) ratios permit to reconstruct variations of the contribution of detrital material deriving from the volcanic arc of Luzon and rainfall intensity of this tropical region. At long time scale, periods of intensification of monsoon rainfall on Luzon are associated to a reduction of precipitation on central China. These periods are also associated to an increase of the zonal gradient of sea surface temperatures on the equatorial Pacific Ocean suggesting a strengthening of El Niña conditions. These results highlight for the first time a strong role of the dynamics of the meridian circulation of ENSO on the long-term changes of rainfall of the tropical western Pacific during the Quaternary. In the Arabian Sea, clay mineralogy, siliciclastic grain-size, ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio and εNd were analysed on Quaternary sediments of the IODP site U1457. Our results suggest a change in the relative proportions of sediments from the Deccan Trapps (smectite) and the Indus river (mainly illite and chlorite). Variability of sedimentary sources and sediment transport (turbidites activity) to the Indus Fan have been reconstructed and attributed to monsoon rainfall and the sea level variations. The concentrations of REE combined with εNd were analysed on seawater samples collected in June 2012 along a North-South cross section in the Bay of Bengal. We highlighted from normalized REE patterns that the contributions of dissolved REE from the Ganges-Brahmaputra river system was the main source of the dissolved REE of surface waters of the Bay of Bengal, whereas the desorption of lithogenic particles dominate the dissolved REE of the intermediate and deep waters masses. We then revalued the residence time of the dissolved REE in the Bay of Bengal. A comparison of εNd, obtained just before the increase of the Ganges-Brahmaputra river discharge inferred by Indian monsoon rainfall, with the results obtained by Singh and al. (2012) for seawater samples collected after the peak of river discharge, allowed us to highlight for the first time a seasonal variability of seawater εNd of the Bay of Bengal. εNd have been analysed on planktonic foraminiferas of core MD77-176 located at 1375 m water depth to reconstruct for the first time the seawater εNd record of the intermediate waters masses of northern Bay of Bengal for the last 27 kyr. This new seawater εNd record of the Northern Bay of Bengal give us new constrain for this proxy already used to reconstruct past changes of the Himalayan weathering

Full textThis thesis describes the development in the nature and circumstances of british presence in india between the defeat of siraj-ud-daula at plassey and the regulating act of 1773. During this period, the english east india company was faced with an enormous growth of its administrational responsibilities caused by the acts of its proper servants in bengal over whom they could exercise but a limited control. This growth of administrational responsibilities provoked a growth of the number of servants in bengal and thus of the british community at calcutta. The company's administrational structures were rapidly overtaken by the circumstances and the company's bengal government experienced great difficulties in restraining its subjects. The author proposes an inside view of this evolution by following the career of william bolts. The first four chapters describe the company itself and the role and activities of its servants in bengal. The next seven chapters follow the career of william bolts paying particular attention to his private trade, which was at the origin of his collisions with the company's bengal executive. Three chapters are dedicated to the judicial actions bolts subsequently brings before the courts of justice in britain against his former superiors. The chapters also describe bolts' public attack on the company in publishing his considerations on india affairs, provoking the outrage of the metropolitan public. The last chapter pays attention to the particular criticisms bolts utters at the company's address and describes the solutions he proposes to repair the damage done and to put british government of india on a sound basis. These two themes are compared to the motives the british government had to interfere in the company's affairs in 1772 and to the measures that resulted from this interference as formulated in the regulating act of 1773. William bolts has been the first to "popularise" indian affairs and to place the subject at the heart of public attention and popular debate. He was the man who furnished the british with that most widespread of metaphors to describe the country they were to govern for more than two centuries: "the richest jewel in the british crown"

Migration, as a phenomenon has become an integral part of modern society throughout the world. This paper focuses the ways, the Nepali and Bangladeshi migrants are included as ‘unauthorized voters’ within the democratic political processes in India. But the same groups of migrants also experience social exclusion as ‘outsiders.’ It attempts to study the migration of Bangladeshi and Nepali migrants (irregular) crossing the Indian borders of North-east region and West Bengal; that has emerged as a critical and debatable issue in the Indian politics and public discourse. Treated as two separate Diasporic communities, both connect to the north-eastern society in diverse manners. This study is a qualitative work conducted to underline the problems faced by not only the migrants but also the native Indians due to the ‘religious disorganization’ prevalent in the region. Importantly, this thesis has underlined the complexities of the government ‘apparatus’ and their impacts within Indian society. These apparatuses in the form of citizenship and immigration laws, border policies, and communal division will throw a reflection on policies under the modern concept of nation-states headed by political giants. Thus, it is argued that the apparatuses in the form of mechanisms further work for the displacement and mistreatment of the migrants' communities. Fragile social aspects like the ‘religion’ and ‘cultural’ differences are manipulated to strike a balance of division between the politics of migrants and social control. It has worked to understand the varying types of ‘political dividends’ shared between the Nepalis and Bangladeshis as two different cases of migrants in north-east and West Bengal. While concluding, I have highlighted the rising of ‘religious intolerance’ and communal provoking in Indian society. With the present nationalist government in power and adaption of extreme measures combined with derogatory terms for the minority groups has given rise to a situation of fear, hatred, and confusion in the contemporary society of north-east and West-Bengal in India.
