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 ...
Tide dependent seasonal changes in water quality and assimilative capacity of anthropogenically influenced Mormugao harbour water
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2012)
Water quality data from Mormugao harbour area at the mouth of Zuari estuary in Goa have been obtained over two tidal cycles monthly for the year 2003 to 2004. R-mode factor analyses of the data indicated strong positive ...
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 ...
Barnacle larval transport in the Mandovi–Zuari estuarine system, central west coast of India
(Springer, 2013)
A two-dimensional hydrodynamic and particle tracking model was used to estimate the dispersion and retention of barnacle larvae from their possible spawning sites in a tropical monsoon-influenced estuarine system (central ...
Modelling tide-driven currents and residual eddies in the Gulf of Kachchh and their seasonal variability: A marine environmental planning perspective
(Elsevier, 2005)
Tide-driven currents in the Gulf of Kachchh (GoK) have been studied using MIKE21 hydrodynamic model. The results are validated with measured currents for three different periods characterized by different wind fields. ...
2-D model for pollutant dispersion at the coastal outfall off Paradip
(Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research, Kalpakkam, India, 1999)
Simulation of dispersion of the effluent discharge has been carried out using 2-D Model to verify the advection and diffusion of the pollutant patch of the proposed effluent disposal off Paradip, Orissa, India. The simulation ...
Sea breeze-induced wind sea growth in the central west coast of India.
(Elsevier, 2014)
Fine resolution wind data is required in wave models to study the interaction between wind seas generated by coastal winds, and swells. In the present study, a mesoscale model, MM5, which is capable of reproducing fine ...
Tidal regime in Gulf of Kutch, west coast of India, by 2D model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1999)
A 2D barotropic numerical model is developed for the Gulf of Kutch with a view to synthesize available information on tides and currents in the Gulf. A comparison of model results with moored current meter observations ...
Attenuation of surface waves due to monsoon rains: A model study for the north Indian Ocean
(Naval Physical and Oceanographic Laboratory, Thrikkakara, Kochi, India, 1998)
The dynamic interaction of intense rain with waves based on momentum exchange is applied to a second generation wave model to predict wave attenuation during monsoon. The scheme takes into account the characteristics of ...
Demarcation of inland vessels' limit off Mormugao port region, India: A pilot study for the safety of inland vessels using wave modelling
(Springer, 2009)
The Ministry of Shipping desires to revise the inland vessels' limit (IVL) notification based on scientific rationale to improve the safety of vessels and onboard personnel. The Mormugao port region extending up to the ...
