Coastal and nearshore circulation off Mangalore
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1979)Studies on currents off Mangalore (west coast of India) showed a strong tidal influence very near the shore which decreased with increasing distance from the shore. At 2 km and further offshore, the onshore component of ... -
Complexities in coastal sediment transport studies by numerical modelling
(Hasanuddin University, Indonesia, 2013)Marine environmental studies related to erosion, accretion, pollution transport, dredge disposal, location of seawater intake, effluent disposal, etc., involve sediment transport studies. Numerical models use set of well ... -
Engineering parameters for expansion of MPT berths, Goa
(Allied, Chennai (India), 1996)Comprehensive program for a harbour development and management requires general and detailed information on the coastal environment including engineering characteristics in addition to physical, chemical and biological ... -
Nearshore processes along north Karnataka coast
(Allied, Chennai, 2001)Ten base stations were established along the shoreline between Karwar and Bhatkal and monthly beach profiles, breaking wave characteristics and longshore currents were measured for a period of one year. The lowest beach ... -
Nearshore processes along Tikkavanipalem Beach, Visakhapatnam, India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2001)Directional wave data collected at 12 m water depth, at 1 km distance off Tikkavanipalem, Andhra Pradesh, India from December 1997 to November 1998, was used to estimate the longshore currents and longshore sediment transport ... -
Numerical modelling of nearshore wave transformation
(Publ. and Inf. Dir., New Delhi, India, 1994)A software has been developed for numerical refraction study based on finite amplitude wave theories. Wave attenuation due to shoaling, bottom friction, bottom percolation and viscous dissipation has also been incorporated. ... -
Phytoplankton pigments and macrobenthos in nearshore waters off an oil terminal at Uran (Maharashtra), west coast of India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1998)Significant temporal and tidal variations of chlorophyll a (2.11-11.8 mg m sup(-3)) were noticed. Chlorophyll a was less during low tide (av. 3.8 mg m sup(-3)) as compared to high tide (av. 8.1 mg m sup(-3)). The predominance ... -
Spectral characteristics of the nearshore waves off Paradip, India during monsoon and extreme events
(Springer, 2009)Spectral and statistical wave parameters obtained from the measured time series wave data off Paradip, east coast of India during May 1996-January 1997 were analysed along with MIKE 21 spectral wave model (SW) results. ... -
Studies on nearshore processes at Yarada beach (South of Visakhapatnam harbour) east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)Influence of breakwaters on Yarada Beach, Andhra Pradesh, India (3.5 km length) stability and distribution on wave induced longshore currents in this region were studied. Monthly observations on variation in beach levels, ... -
Variability in the distribution of planktonic fish eggs and larvae in the nearshore waters off Bombay
(Indian Fisheries Association, 1978)Distribution of planktonic fish eggs and larvae in the nearshore waters off Bombay was studied during November 1979 to December 1980. Monthly samples were collected along three transects (Versova, Mahim and Thana) covering ... -
Variations in nearshore waves along Karnataka, west coast of India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2012)Wind wave spectra were recorded simultaneously at three shallow (water depth 7–9 m) locations (Malpe, Honnavar and Karwar) along the 200 km stretch of the state of Karnataka in 2009 during 27 April–24 May (representing ...
