On the dominance of pre-existing swells over wind seas along the west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2011)
Wave data collected off Goa along the west coast of India during February 1996–May 1997 has been subjected to spectral analysis, and swell and wind sea parameters have been estimated by separation frequency method. Dominance ...
Wave transformation and attenuation along the west coast of India: Measurements and numerical simulations
(World Scientific Publishing, 2013)
Waves measured at a few locations along the west coast of India were analyzed to study modification and attenuation of wave energy in the nearshore regions. It has been found that the reduction in wave height is relatively ...
Modification of wind-wave model WAM and its verification against buoy data in the Indian Ocean
(IIT Bombay, 2012)
An attempt is made to improve the accuracy of wave prediction in the Indian Ocean. For this purpose, two versions of the wave model WAM have been used: WAM (Cycle 4) and the new version of WAM, called NewWAM. The three ...
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 ...
Spectral analysis of wind field in the Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
To study the variability in wind fields over the Indian Ocean, we used ERA INTERIM daily winds for the period 1979-2012 In order to analyse the temporal variation of wind field, we partitioned the whole Indian Ocean into ...
'Shamal' swells in the Arabian Sea and their influence along the west coast of India
(American Geophysical Union, 2011)
Wave data collected off Ratnagiri, Goa and Dwarka along the west coast of India during winter season (NE monsoon and early pre‐monsoon) present distinct wave characteristics with periodicity ranging between 2 and 5 days ...
Co-existence of wind seas and swells along the west coast of India during non-monsoon season
(European Geosciences Union, 2013)
An attempt has been made to understand the co-existence of wind seas and swells along the west coast of India during non-monsoon season. Wave data were collected in different years during non-monsoon season (off Goa during ...
Propagation of Atlantic Ocean swells in the north Indian Ocean: A case study
(European Geosciences Union, 2012)
An analysis of altimeter significant wave height data of May 2007 revealed the occurrence of an extreme weather event off southern tip of South Africa in the Atlantic Ocean, and generation of a series of very high swells ...
Recent studies on wind seas and swells in the Indian Ocean
(IIT Bombay, 2012)
Winds and waves measured at a few locations along the west coast of India were analysed to study the wave characteristics in the deep as well as near shore regions during different seasons. The potential generation of ...
Recent studies on wind seas and swells in the Indian Ocean: A review
(SAGE Publications, 2013)
Winds and waves measured at a few locations along the west coast of India were analysed to study the wave characteristics in the deep as well as near shore regions during different seasons The potential generation of swells ...
