Aerosol optical thickness and spatial variability along coastal and offshore waters of the eastern Arabian Sea
(Oxford, 2011)Data from the ocean-colour monitor (OCM) on board the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite P4 were used to analyse the spatial and temporal distribution of aerosol optical thickness (AOT) over the coastal and offshore waters ... -
Analysis of chlorophyll pigment concentration in the northern Arabian Sea using remote sensing and GIS
(2007)The phytoplankton in the ocean plays an important role not only because it produces food that sustains the marine life, but also it is capable of regulating CO2 and there by influencing the climate of the earth system. It ... -
Application of Remote Sensing Techniques to study the Distribution of Mangroves along the Estuaries of Goa
(International Scientific Publications, 1982)Aerial photographs were used to study the distribution of mangroves in the estuaries of Goa during 1978-79. The total area covered by 7 estuaries in Goa including the major Mandovi - Zuari estuarine complex, is approximately ... -
Environmental studies of the Arabian Sea using remote sensing, GIS and GPS techniques
(2006)The Arabian Sea, situated in the western part of the northern Indian Ocean is a tropical basin. It is bounded on the east by the Indian peninsula, on the north by Baluchistan and Sindh provinces of Pakistan and on the west ... -
Environmental studies on mangrove cover changes in Goa and its resident Crassostrea population
(2008)Mangroves form one of these major habitats, sustaining various types of fauna and flora of socioeconomic values. The physical structure of fishes and invertebrates is greatly influenced by mangroves. These habitats support ... -
Mapping of Environmental Sensitive Index (ESI) for the oil spills at Goa coast, India
(IIT Bombay, 2009)Indian remote sensing satellite (IRS) data have been used to find out the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) for the Goa coast which is situated in the west coast of India. It is one of the most sensitive environments ... -
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 ... -
Retrieval of chlorphyll from the sea-leaving radiance in the Arbaian Sea
(The Indian Society of Remote Sensing, 2001)Error estimates in chlorophyll retrieval in the sea from satellite data have always been higher compared to the errors in retrieval of sea surface temperature or wind speed from satellite data. This is due to the higher ... -
Role of eddies in the Bay of Bengal circulation and hydrography and in the distribution of nutrients and chlorophyll
(2007)Eddies are ubiquitous in the ocean and are products of geophysical turbulence. They develop from the hydrodynamic instabilities and are known to alter the physical and biochemical properties of the ocean. In the north ... -
Seasonal variability of the upper ocean driven by the atmospheric forcing and its regulation of nutrients and chlorophyll in the Bay of Bengal
(2008)The upper ocean is the most variable and dynamically active part of the marine environment that couples the underlying ocean to the atmosphere above through the transfer of mass, momentum and energy. The thickness of mixed ... -
Seasonality in sub-surface chlorophyll maxima in the Arabian Sea: Detection by IRS-P4/OCM and implication of it to primary productivity
(Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2006)Arabian Sea is highly influenced by monsoon systems like SW monsoon (June – September) and NE monsoon (December-February). This affects distribution pattern of phytoplankton, availability of nutrients and changing temperature ... -
Study of Sediment Transportation in the Gulf of Kachchh, using 3D Hydro-dynamic Model Simulation and Satellite Data
(2003)A 3D hydrodynamic model ‘COSMOS’ is applied to the Gulf of Kachchh to predict tidal variation, ocean currents, residual tidal current, sea surface temperature distribution etc. The model is based on the hydrostatic and ...
