A one year comparison of radar and pressure tide gauge at Goa, west coast of India
(CUSAT, 2009)
At many locations absolute pressure gauges are used to obtain sea level data. Therefore, knowledge of the other physical processes which effect the sea level measurements at the coast is very important to insert the required ...
Application of model studies for quality control of bottom pressure based GLOSS sea level gauge at Takoradi Harbour (Ghana, West Africa)
(Allied, India, 2005)
Quality-control of bottom pressure based sea level gauge has been effected using a statistically derived simple linear model constructed from a set of bottom pressures and concurrent tide-staff measurements. The study ...
Influence of environmental properties on macrobenthos in the northwest Indian shelf
(Springer, 2007)
The paper deals with the standing stock of macrobenthic infauna and associated environmental factors influencing the benthic community in the shelf region of the northwest Indian coast. The data were collected onboard FORV ...
Meteorologically induced modulation in sea level off Tikkavanipalem Coast - Central east coast of India
(Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2005)
This article examines the seasonal variability of nontidal contributions of the sea level oscillations off Tikkavanipalem coast in Andhra Pradesh (India), which is located on the western boundary of the Bay of Bengal. The ...
Over-estimation of sea level measurements arising from water density anomalies within tide-wells - A case study at Zuari Estuary, Goa
(The Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2002)
A 3-year study of water density anomalies within a conventional tide-well indicated that the average water density within the well was consistently lower than that of the external ambient waters. The tide-well at Marmugao, ...
Measurements of sea level off Tikkavanipalem - Coast India
(Allied, Chennai, 2001)
Sea level and meteorological measurements have been made, off Tikkavanipalem coast in Andhra Pradesh, India in 1997-98. Sea level measurements were made in four temporal segments of one-month duration each during a one-year ...
Development of an autonomous vertical profiler for oceanographic studies
(Allied, 2007)
The variations in oceanic variables that influence global climate, hypoxia in freshwater reservoirs and in coastal waters as in the west coast of India, the rise of harmful algal blooms are amongst current problems that ...
Control of the Maya AUV in the vertical and horizontal planes: Theory and practical results
(Institute for Systems and Robotics, 2007)
The paper describes the design and testing of the depth and heading autopilots for a small Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) named Maya. Control system design is done using the LQ (Linear-Quadratic) optimization technique ...
Miniature sonar for obstacle detection on samll AUV Maya
(Allied, 2007)
Autonomous platforms are increasingly able to collect in-situ data with least disturbance to the parameters under measurements. To attain high level of autonomy they need to posses capabilities to detect and avoid obstacles ...
The detection of annual hypoxia in a low latitude freshwater reservoir in Kerala, India, using the small AUV Maya
(Marine Technology Society, 2009)
The Idukki Reservoir at an altitude of 748 m covering an area of 53 km sup(2) is surrounded by tropical forests in the Western Ghats in the southwestern Indian state of Kerala. We used the small autonomous underwater vehicle ...
