Source and dispersal of suspended sediment in the macro-tidal Gulf of Kachchh
(Elsevier, 2007)
The macro-tidal Gulf of Kachchh, covering nearly 7000 km sup(2), is located about 150 km south of the Indus River mouth. In spite of semi-arid climate and lack of major rivers flowing into it, the Gulf is highly turbid ...
Monitoring shoreline environment of Paradip, east coast of India using remote sensing
(Current Science Association, 2009)
In the present study, multi-temporal satellite images of Indian Remote Sensing Satellites (IRS1D and IRS P6 - Resourcesat) from 1998 to 2005 is used to monitor the coastal environment of Paradip, east coast of India. The ...
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 ...
Dissolved oxygen - A target indicator in determining use of the Gulf of Kachchh waters
(Elsevier, 2005)
Spatial and temporal variations of Dissolved Oxygen (DO) and Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) in the Gulf of Kachchh (GoK), India are assessed based on data collected since 1976.DO concentrations in the interior GoK vary ...
Wave directional spectrum from SAR imagery
(Indian Society of Remote Sensing, Deharadun, 2000)
Gaussian smoothed SAR image spectra have been evaluated from 512 x 512 pixel subscenes of image mode ERS-1 SAR scenes off Goa, Visakhapatnam, Paradeep and Portugal. The two recently acquired scenes off Portugal showed the ...
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 ...
Estimation of carrying capacity of the Gulf of Kachchh, west coast of India in relation to petroleum hydrocarbon through oil spill modeling
(Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, 2007)
The Gulf of Kachchh (GoK) is a semi-enclosed basin located in the northern part of the west coast of India, and opens to the Arabian Sea. GoK is about 170 km long and 75 km wide at the mouth, and encompasses several ...
