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 ...
Numerical simulations of barnacle larval dispersion coupled with field observations on larval abundance, settlement and recruitment in a tropical monsoon influenced coastal marine environment
(Elsevier, 2012)
Observations were carried out to monitor the larval abundance, settlement and recruitment of barnacles on a regular basis for a period of two years. The results were then compared with the numerical modelling studies carried ...
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 ...
Characteristics, seasonal distribution and surface degradation features of microplastic pellets along the Goa coast, India
(Elsevier, 2016)
Microplastic pellets (MPPs) are ubiquitous contaminants, recognised as a serious threat to the biota in coastal, estuarine and marine environment. The distribution, abundance, weathering and chemical characteristics of ...
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 ...
Attenuation of Wave Energy Due to Mangrove Vegetation off Mumbai, India
(2019)
Coastal regions of India are prone to sea level rise, cyclones, storm surges, and human-induced activities, resulting in flood, erosion, and inundation, and some of these impacts could be attributed to climate change. ...
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 ...
Residence time of pollutants discharged in the Gulf of Kachchh, northwestern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2012)
A 2D Hydrodynamic-Particle Analysis model was applied to the Gulf of Kachchh (GoK) to estimate the residence time of pollutants. The tidal currents in the Gulf have a strong E-W component, which prevents the material in ...
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 ...
Coastal erosion triggered by a shipwreck along the coast of Goa, India
(Current Science Association, 2013)
Temporal satellite imageries (1999, 2001, 2003, 2006, 2008 and 2011), wave model (DHI) results and field measurements have been used to evaluate whether the grounded ship MV River Princess played a role in triggering erosion ...
