Biological and geophysical aspects of coastal structures
(Indian Inst. of Technol., New Delhi and NIO, India, 1994)Geological processes, that occur in the nearshore environment : The nearshore, environments have been strongly influencEd. by sealevel changes throughout the geological history. Much of the shallow-water region is also ... -
Coastal circulation off Bombay in relation to waste water disposal
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)Flow patterns in the coastal waters of Bombay were studied using recording current meters, direct reading current meters, floats and dye in relation to the proposed waste water disposal project of the Municipal Corporation ... -
Computation of large scale currents in the Arabian Sea during winter using a semi-diagnostic model
(Indian National Science Academy, 1997)A 3-dimensional, semi-diagnostic model with 331 levels in the vertical has been used for the computation of climatic circulation in the western tropical Indian Ocean. Model is driven with the seasonal mean data on wind ... -
Observed mixed standing-wave signatures in Cochin Estuary on the southwest coast of India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2009)Study of the characteristics of currents and water-level variations in the Cochin estuary reveals, for the first time, unique signatures of mixed standing-waves in the southern region. Analysis of the simultaneous water-level ... -
Physical features of Nearshore Waters off Karwar
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1980)Very little change in the hydrographic properties with depth during October 1975 to October 1976 was observed except during August-October, when waters of low temperature ( 24 degrees C), high salinity ( 35.5 ppt) and low ... -
Residual fluxes of water, salt and suspended sediment in the Beypore Estuary
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1998)The monthly trends of the residual fluxes of salt and water and the transportation of suspended sediments in the Beypore estuarine system, Kerala, India were examined. At the river mouth the water flux was directed seaward ... -
Satellite-tracked drifting buoy observations in the south equatorial current in the Indian Ocean
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1988)Three satellite-tracked drifting buoys released in the south equatorial current in the Indian Ocean followed the path of the current moving westward approximately zonally in the vicinity of 10 degrees S latitude. On nearing ... -
Water characteristics and transport of the Antarctic circumpolar current in the Indian Ocean
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1988)Geostrophic velocities are computed across meridians 37 degrees E and 105 degrees E using hydrographic data. The estimated mass transport is represented on a temperature - salinity diagram. The characteristics of the water ... -
Watermass structure and current system in the equatorial western Indian Ocean during August, 1985
(Hamburg : Das Institut, 1987)During the 17th cruise of ORV Sagar Kanya (3rd to 21st August, 1985), two meridional sections were occupied between 4 degrees N and 6 degrees n S in the equatorial Western Indian Ocean. The Dynamic Method was employed to ...
