Quantitative Estimation of Coastal Changes along Selected Locations of Karnataka, India: A GIS and Remote Sensing Approach
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2011)
Qualitative and quantitative studies on changes of coastal geomorphology and shoreline of Karnataka, India have been carried out using toposheets of Survey of India and satellite imageries (IRS-P6 and IRS-1D). Changes ...
Land use/land cover changes around Rameshwaram Island, east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Land-use/land cover changes are studied using the Indian Remote Sensing satellite (IRS-1C, IRS-6) Linear Image Self-scan Sensor (LISS) III data of 1998 and 2010 Coastal land use categories such as sand, vegetation, coral ...
Waves in Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay around Dhanushkodi, Tamil Nadu, India
(Current Science Association, 2013)
Surface wave characteristics around Dhanushkodi are studied based on the measured data in the Gulf of Mannar and in the Palk Bay. Wave spectra are mainly double-peaked in the Gulf of Mannar and single-peaked in the Palk ...
Variations in nearshore processes along Nagapattinam coast, India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2002)
Directional wave data collected at 10 m water depth, at 2 km distance off Nagore from March 1998 to February 1999, were used to estimate the longshore currents and longshore sediment transport rate considering the sea and ...
Textural characteristics of foreshore sediments along Karnataka shoreline, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2011)
Grain character analysis of beach sediments along three selected beaches (Pavinkurve, Kundapura and Padukare) of Karnataka coast, west coast of India is carried out to identify the textural behavior of beach sediments ...
Shoreline change detection from Karwar to Gokarna - South West coast of India using remotely Sensed data
(Cafet-Innova Technical Society, 2013)
IRS P6 satellite images and toposheet of study area was studied to carry out comparative study to quantify erosion and accretion in two phases (i) in the span of thirty years and (ii) in the span of seven years. It was ...
Sea and swell along west coast of India: Study based on measured data
(National Institute of Technology, Surathkal, 2007)
Separation of sea and swell from the measured data is important for studying the wind wave dynamics and in the design of coastal and offshore structures. The wave data collected using Datawell directional waverider buoy ...
Nearshore Waves and Littoral Drift Along a Micro-Tidal Wave-Dominated Coast Having Comparable Wind-Sea and Swell Energy
(2020)
The nearshore wave characteristics and variations in littoral drift (longshore sediment transport; LST) are estimated based on different approaches for four years along the Vengurla coast, with comparable wind-sea and swell ...
Textural characteristics and morphosedimentary environment of foreshore zone along Ganpatipule, Maharashtra, India
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
The cross-shore profile and the textural distribution of foreshore sediments of Ganpatipule beach along Maharashtra coast covering two annual cycles are examined. Ganpatipule beach depicts erosion and accretion of the berm, ...
Coastal processes along the Indian coastline
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Based on the measured data, wave height and current speed at a few locations are presented along with the estimated sediment transport rates. The maximum significant wave height recorded during the passage of cyclone along ...
