	LE DELTA SOUS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		The deep-sea Bengal fan is one of the largest deep-sea cones in the world: 3,000 kms long and 1,000 wide.
		It is formed by sediment redeposition from the Gange-Brahmaputa rivers which supply most (70%) of the material drained from the Himalayas: nearly 2 billions tons per year of sediment are redeposited, suggesting a denudation rate of more than 70 cm per 1000 years for the Himalayan chain.
		A detailed study of the distal hemipelagic sediments of the Bengal Fan (between the Equator and 10° S) resulted in a chronology of the main turbiditic episodes that can be correlated to the main uplift and erosion events of the Himalayan chain.

	TR 1/2003: W. Pfitzner: The Unknown Famine Holocaust
		Because the Gulf of Bengal was viewed as a possible location for a Japanese invasion, a strong independence movement there was unacceptable to the British, who therefore executed a military police action in October 1942, during which 193 camps and buildings of the Congress Party were destroyed and countless people arrested.
		In addition to this inflationary thrust, the massive military activities in Bengal that were basically financed by overtime of the money printing presses led to a general inflation which hit the impoverished population in the countryside especially hard.
		The statistical data for Bengal in the years 1942-1944 reveal that food availability was the lowest in at least 15 years, and probably 11% lower than in 1941.

		This strain, assigned to the serogroup 0139 with the synonym Bengal, is responsible for epidemics of major proportions affecting several countries in the Asiatic continent (T Ramamurthy et al.
		The Bengal strain is in rapid expansion, replacing the prevalent El Tor and soon may be the predominant agent of cholera worldwide.
		For almost a century the identification of cholera vibrios has rested on the belief, that this particular antigen (01) was an exclusive predicate of cholerae vibrios and were thus known as the "true cholera vibrios".
