Decadal changes in shoreline patterns in Sundarbans, India
(Jounal of coastal sciences, 2015)
Sundarbans is one of the most populated and largest deltas in the world and is located at the mouth of three major rivers- Ganges, Brahmaputra and Meghna that empty into the Bay of Bengal along the east coast of India. The ...
Short-term statistics of waves measured off Ratnagiri, eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2015)
The short-term wave characteristics are required for design and operation of industrial facilities within the coastal areas. Water surface displacement measured using waverider buoy moored at 13 m water depth in the eastern ...
Classification of tidal inlets along the central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2015)
Tidal inlets along the Maharashtra coast on the central west coast of India were classified according to three methods available in the literature. Two classification methods viz., (i) Hydrodynamic classification (Hayes, ...
Inter-annual variations in wave characteristics off Ratnagiri, Northeast Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2015)
The wave data measured using the Datawell directional wave rider buoy at 13 m water depth off Ratnagiri during 2010 to 2013 is used to study the inter-annual variations in the wave characteristics. The percentage occurrence ...
Assessment of seasonal and year-to-year surface salinity signals retrieved from SMOS and Aquarius missions in the Bay of Bengal
(Taylor & Francis, 2016)
The Bay of Bengal (BoB) exhibits a wide range of sea surface salinity (SSS), with very fresh water induced by heavy monsoonal precipitation and river run-offs to the north, and saltier water to the south. This is a ...
Seasonal variability of salinity and salt transport in the northern Indian Ocean
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)
Analyses using a suite of observational datasets (Aquarius and Argo) and model simulations are carried out to examine the seasonal variability of salinity in the northern Indian Ocean (NIO). The model simulations include ...
Fluctuations of Mediterranean outflow water circulation in the Gulf of Cadiz during MIS 5 to 7: Evidence from benthic foraminiferal assemblage and stable isotope records
(Elsevier, 2015)
We studied variations in benthic foraminiferal assemblages and δ<sup>13</sup>C for the last 225 kyr at IODP site U1387 which is currently bathed by upper core of the Mediterranean Outflow Water (MOW). The MOW paleocirculation ...
Atmospheric fine and coarse mode aerosols at different environments of India and the Bay of Bengal during winter-2014: Implications of a coordinated campaign
(Metrology Society of India, 2014)
In this paper, we present mass concentrations of particulate matter [PM<sub>2.5</sub>, PM<sub>10</sub> size fractions and total suspended particulates (TSP)] measured simultaneously over land stations (Kullu, Patiala, ...
Spatial distribution of suspended particulate matter in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries: inferences on the estuarine turbidity maximum
(Current Science Association, 2016)
The present study estimate the suspended particulate matter in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries. samples were collected from the Mandovi (M0A–M9) and Zuari (Z0–Z8) estuaries and Cumbarjua canal (C0–C3).The spatial distribution ...
Nearshore waves and longshore sediment transport along Rameshwaram Island off the east coast of India
(SNAK, 2015)
Wave-induced Longshore Sediment Transport (LST) play an important role in the dynamics of the Dhanushkodi sandspit located southeast of Rameshwaram. The LST along the Dhanushkodi coast is studied based on data collected ...
