Assessment of wave modeling results with buoy and altimeter deep water waves for a summer monsoon
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2004)
A second-generation offshore spectral wave model has been applied to simulate wind waves over the north Indian Ocean during May-August 2000 using 6 hourly NCEP re-analysis wind data. The significant wave height (SWH), wave ...
Stability of a sand spit due to dredging in an adjacent creek
(Elsevier, 2007)
The Jatadharmohan creek lies between Mahanadi and Devi Rivers along the Orissa coast and it is separated from the sea by an elongated sand spit. It was proposed to mine a volume of 15 x 10 sup(6) m³ of sand from the creek ...
Change detection studies in coastal zone features of Goa, India by remote sensing
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Digital remote sensing data of SPOT-1 (Nov. 1990), IRS-1C (Jan. 2001) and IRS-1D (Jan. 2003) have been subject to maximum likelihood classifier (MLC) to carry out change detection studies in the coastal zone of Goa. The ...
Seasonal occurrence of unique sediment plume in the Bay of Bengal
(AGU, 2008)
The movement of sediment plumes, detectable from ocean color sensors, depends primarily on coastal circulation. Hence, sediment plumes become tracers for studying circulation patterns. The Indian remote sensing satellite ...
Wave modelling for the North Indian Ocean using MSMR analysed winds
(Taylor & Francis, 2006)
NCMRWF (National Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecast) winds assimilated with MSMR (Multi-channel Scanning Microwave Radiometer) winds are used as input to MIKE21 Offshore Spectral Wave model (OSW) which takes into ...
Trajectory of an oil spill off Goa, eastern Arabian Sea: Field observations and simulations
(Elsevier, 2007)
An oil spill occurred off Goa, west coast of India, on 23 March 2005 due to collision of 2 vessels. In general, fair weather with weak winds prevails along the west coast of India during March. In that case, the spill would ...
Dredging of sand from a creek adjacent to a sand-spit for reclamation: Its impact on spit stability and coastal zone
(Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, 2007)
A quantity of about 17 + 10 sup(6) m sup(3) sand had been dredged from the Jatadharmohan creek (JMC) 15 km south of Paradip Port (east coast of India) in 2000, and a quantity of 14 + 10 sup(6) m sup(3) sand will be dredged ...
Detection of decadal shoreline changes along Dhamara and Maipura coast, Odisha, India
(IAHR-AIRH, 2014)
Coastal erosion is one of the major problems of the coastal zone. The erosion is triggered by various reasons such as high wave energy, reduction of sediments, natural disasters and climate change etc. In the era of ...
Decadal shoreline assessment using remote sensing along the central Odisha coast, India
(Springer, 2015)
One of the major requirements of planning coastal protection works is to understand the processes of erosion, deposition, sediment transport, flooding and sea level changes which continuously alter the shoreline. Significant ...
