Interhemispheric controls on deep ocean circulation and carbon chemistry during the last two glacial cycles
(American Geophysical Union, 2015)
Changes in ocean circulation structure, together with biological cycling, have been proposed for trapping carbon in the deep ocean during glacial periods of the Late Pleistocene, but uncertainty remains in the nature and ...
Observed variations in stratification and currents in the Zuari estuary, west coast of India
(Springer, 2015)
25-hour time series measurements of vertical salinity profiles and currents in Zuari estuary were done during both spring and neap tidal cycles of pre-monsoon (April–May), south-west monsoon (June–September) and post-monsoon ...
Surfzone wave characteristics during flood tide on the central west coast of India
(World Scientific Publishing, 2015)
Surfzone wave characteristics, measured using a wave and tide gauge (WTG) during a flood tide, were studied at three different beaches having different nearshore slopes. The spectral wave characteristics viz., wave-height ...
Acoustic communication for Maya Autonomous Underwater Vehicle - performance evaluation of acoustic modem
(NIOT, Chennai, 2015)
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) traverse considerable distances underwater without any intervention. Very often the operations are in coastal waters with small depth, large horizontal distances, seabed obstacles, ...
Seasonal dynamics of adjoining tidal coastal inlet on east coast of India measurements and modelling
(IAHR-AIRH, 2014)
The opening and closure of coastal tidal inlets play a major role in regulating the water and sediment exchange between the river and ocean as well as in the interruption of the longshore sediment transport. The present ...
Directional characteristics of shallow water waves along southwestern Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2016)
The aim of the present research is to investigate the directional characteristics of waves along the southwestern Bay of Bengal based on the measured data during 2010 at 14 m water depth. Diurnal, monthly and annual variation ...
Verification of model wave heights with long-term moored buoy data: Application to wave field over the Indian Ocean
(Elsevier, 2015)
This paper describes the results obtained using a modified version (ModWAM) of the global wave model WAM, in which new parameterizations have been applied based on the seasonal changes and extreme weather events that have ...
Trends in surface wind speed and significant wave height as revealed by ERA-Interim wind wave hindcast in the Central Bay of Bengal
(Royal Meteorological Society, 2015)
The Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal (BoB) regions are special interested sea areas in the Northern Hemisphere with large seasonal variability. This study focused on the long-term wind and wave in the central BoB from 1979 ...
Observational evidence of mixed rossby gravity waves at the central equatorial Indian Ocean
(Springer, 2015)
Six-hourly soundings (GPS sonde) were carried out at the central equatorial Indian Ocean (80º–83ºE) during 25th September–10th October 2011 under the CINDY2011 (Cooperative Indian Ocean Experiment on Intra-seasonal variability ...
Backtrack modeling to locate the origin of tar balls depositing along the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2016)
Tar ball (TB) deposition along the West Coast of India (WCI) is a common phenomenon during the southwest monsoon season, particularly along the coast of Goa and Gujarat, and it is a major concern to the stake holders. Our ...
