(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Present study is the applicability of rock magnetic techniques, coupled with geochemical (SiO<sub>2</sub>, Al<sub>2</sub> O<sub>3</sub> , Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, CaO, MgO, K<sub>2</sub>O, P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub>, ...
An atlas of mean distribution of precipitable water vapour over the tropical Indian Ocean for the year 1979
(1993)
The monthly mean maps of the precipitable water (PW) over the tropical Indian Ocean are prepared using the data derived from the Nimbus 7 Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) sensor for the period January to ...
Sand spit and shoreline dynamics near Terekhol river mouth, Goa, India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Evolution of shoreline and sand spit at the mouth of the Terekhol River, near Keri beach, located in the Indian state of Goa has been investigated From the analysis of the data collected, the shoreline oscillation (accretion ...
Salt balance and mixing in the Bay of Bengal
(1986)
Basic fields of temperature salinity, density and currents in the Bay of Bengal are investigated using data archieved at the National Oceanographic Data Centre (NODC) Washington, D.C. and the Indian National Oceanographic ...
Study of longshore current equations for currents in Visakhapatnam beach
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Longshore currents were measured along the Visakhapatnam Beach, Andhra Pradesh, India at weekly intervals from March 1978 to March 1979. Visual observations on breaker characteristics were also made during this period. ...
Evidence for the existence of Persian Gulf water and Red Sea water in the Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2017)
The high-salinity water masses that originate in the North Indian Ocean are Arabian Sea High-Salinity Water (ASHSW), Persian Gulf Water (PGW), and Red Sea Water (RSW). Among them, only ASHSW has been shown to exist in the ...
Tidally-modulated high frequency internal waves in Gautami-Godavari estuary, East coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Time series temperature and salinity (at 1 hour interval) and currents data (10 min interval) at surface (3 m) and bottom (14 m), collected in the Gautami-Godavari estuary during 25-27 September 2008 were utilized to ...
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 ...
Longshore currents and associated sediment transport in the nearshore areas of Kerala and Goa, west coast of India
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)
The field observations on the longshore currents at selected locations along the coasts of Goa and Kerala on the western seaboard spanning over a period of five years revealed high variability in their direction and speed. ...
