Formation of algal bloom in the northern Arabian Sea deep waters during January-March: A study using pooled in situ and satellite data
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)The formation of winter bloom (January-March) was studied in deep waters of the northeastern Arabian Sea (NAS) during 2003 and 2004. Six ship cruises were undertaken at different phases of the bloom to examine its formation. ... -
Ganga-Brahmaputra river discharge from Jason-2 radar altimetry: An update to the long-term satellite-derived estimates of continental freshwater forcing flux into the Bay of Bengal
(American Geophysical Union, 2012)This paper discusses the use of Jason-2 radar altimeter measurements to estimate the Ganga-Brahmaputra surface freshwater flux into the Bay of Bengal for the period mid-2008 to December 2011. A previous estimate was generated ... -
Identification of archaeological sites from space
(Indian Archaeological Society, 1998)It is well known that remote sensing is the only non-destructive method of earth's exploration. Archaeologists particular can not preserve a site as well as study it through ground-based methods. The aim of the present ... -
Influence of the macrotidal environment on the source to sink pathways of suspended flux in the Gulf of Kachchh, India: Evidence from the Ocean Colour Monitor (IRS-P4)
(Taylor and Francis, 2007)A series of tide-synchronous satellite images, obtained from the Ocean Colour Monitor (OCM) onboard the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite (IRS-P4), in situ measurements and hydrodynamic model simulations were used to describe ... -
Interpretation of aerial photographs of Ratnagiri Bay - a case study
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)Aerial photocharacteristics like tonal difference, texture, shape, size, form, pattern, vegetation, soil characteristics and associated features were used to identify fluvial, marine and aeolian features such as tidal ... -
Investigations of an intense aerosol loading during 2007 cyclone SIDR - A study using satellite data and ground measurements over Indian region
(Elsevier, 2009)Tropical cyclones are prominent weather systems characterized by high atmospheric pressure gradients and wind speeds. Intense tropical cyclones occur in India during the pre-monsoon (spring), early monsoon (early summer), ... -
Landform changes from remote sensing data
(Tata Energy Research Institute, India, 2003)Coastal tourism is typically accompanied by developments along the coast - on sand dunes, cliffs, promontories, and sandy beaches - with possible implications for coastal processes and, eventually, for human activity located ... -
Mixed layer variability and chlorophyll a biomass in the Bay of Bengal.
(Published by Copernicus Publications, 2014)The mixed layer is the most variable and dynamically active part of the marine environment that couples the underlying ocean to the atmosphere and plays an important role in determining the oceanic primary productivity. ... -
Modern techniques of sea level measurement

Monitoring of ocean surface algal blooms in coastal and oceanic waters around India.
(Springer, 2014)The National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) sensor MODIS-Aqua provides an important tool for reliable observations of the changing ocean surface algal bloom paradigms in coastal and oceanic waters around ... -
Ocean primary production and available light: Further algorithms for remote sensing
(Elsevier, 1988)In the context of remote sensing of the ocean, the general problem of estimating water column production from surface irradiance and column chlorophyll concentration is examined, and some refinements are made to the linear ... -
On the suitability of global algorithms for the retrieval of SST from the north Indian Ocean using NOAA/AVHRR
(Taylor and Francis, 1999)The errors associated with the SST retrievals from the north Indian Ocean, using global multichannel sea surface temperature (MCSST), nonlinear sea surface temperature (NLSST), and Pathfinder sea surface temperature (PFSST) ... -
Phytoplankton biomass and primary production in Delagoa Bight Mozambique: Application of remote sensing
(Elsevier, 2007)A non-linear model that uses satellite-derived chlorophyll to estimate water-column primary production was developed and tested using data from the Delagoa Bight, where the model results compared well with local estimates. ... -
Pigment patterns in the Arabian Sea: Spatio-temporal variability as observed by ADEOS
(NIO, Dona Paula, Goa (India), 2000)The spatial and temporal variations of the near-surface concentration of phytoplankton pigment observed by ADEOS during November 1996 - May 1997 are studied in relation to SST and winds. Monthly composite images from OCTS ... -
Quantitative Estimation of Coastal Changes along Selected Locations of Karnataka, India: A GIS and Remote Sensing Approach
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2011)Qualitative and quantitative studies on changes of coastal geomorphology and shoreline of Karnataka, India have been carried out using toposheets of Survey of India and satellite imageries (IRS-P6 and IRS-1D). Changes ... -
Re-evaluation of ‘paradox of mesozooplankton’ in the eastern Arabian Sea based on ship and satellite observations
(Elsevier, 2010)In the central and eastern Arabian Sea (EAS), biomass and production of phytoplankton are known to vary spatially and seasonally whereas, biomass of mesozooplankton (MSP) is reported to be constant. This apparent contradiction ... -
Remote acoustic seafloor characterization using numerical model and statistical based stochastic multifractals
(Institute of Applied & Computational Mathematics, 2013)The spatial variability of sediment geoacoustic inversion parameters are estimated employing bathymetric systems such as multi-beam echo-sounder (MBES) and dualfrequency single-beam echo-sounder (SBES) operable at 95 kHz ... -
Remote sensing application for delineating coastal vegetation - A case study
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, 1997)Remote sensing data has been used for mapping coastal vegetation along the Goa Coast, India. The study envisages the use of digital image processing techniques for delineating geomorphic features and associated vegetation, ... -
Remote sensing of oceanic primary production: Computations using a spectral model
(Elsevier, 1989)A spectral model of underwater irradiance is coupled with a spectral version of the photosynthesis-light relationship to compute oceanic primary production. The results are shown to be significantly different from those ... -
