Land use/land cover changes around Rameshwaram Island, east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Land-use/land cover changes are studied using the Indian Remote Sensing satellite (IRS-1C, IRS-6) Linear Image Self-scan Sensor (LISS) III data of 1998 and 2010 Coastal land use categories such as sand, vegetation, coral ...
Indian Ocean dipole modulated wave climate of eastern Arabian Sea
(European Geosciences Union, 2016)
Intrinsic modes of variability have a significant role in driving the climatic oscillations in the oceanic processes. In this paper, we investigate the influence of an inter-annual mode of variability, the Indian Ocean ...
Spectral Wave Characteristics in the Nearshore Waters of Northwestern Bay of Bengal
(Springer International Publishing, 2018)
The spectral wave characteristics in the nearshore waters of northwestern Bay of Bengal are presented based on the buoy-measured data from February 2013 to December 2015 off Gopalpur at 15-m water depth. The mean seasonal ...
Observation of dominance of swells over wind seas in the coastal waters of the Gulf of Mannar, India
(Copernicus Publications for EGU, 2017)
Wind seas typically dominate over swell seas in coastal gulfs. Waves measured at a location having a water depth of 12?m in the near-shore waters of the Gulf of Mannar during a 1-year period (1 May 2015 to 30 April 2016) ...
Characteristics of waves off Goa, west coast of India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2000)
Directional wave measurements were carried out using Datawell directional waverider buoy off Goa along west coast of India during the south west monsoon period in 1996 and the results are presented. Theoretical joint ...
Surface wave climatology and its variability in the North Indian Ocean based on ERA-Interim reanalysis
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)
The climate over the north Indian Ocean (NIO) is one of the most dynamic in the world because of seasonally reversing monsoon winds. In this study, the climate of the NIO and the variability of its surface waves using the ...
Nearshore currents along the Karnataka coast, west coast of India
(Multi-Science Publishing, 2012)
Measured current data at 7 locations and tide data at 3 locations during the pre-summer monsoon period along the west coast of India is used in the study. The surface currents during March showed a predominant northward ...
Coastal processes along the Indian coastline
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Based on the measured data, wave height and current speed at a few locations are presented along with the estimated sediment transport rates. The maximum significant wave height recorded during the passage of cyclone along ...
Variations in nearshore waves along Karnataka, west coast of India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2012)
Wind wave spectra were recorded simultaneously at three shallow (water depth 7–9 m) locations (Malpe, Honnavar and Karwar) along the 200 km stretch of the state of Karnataka in 2009 during 27 April–24 May (representing ...
Variations in return value estimate of ocean surface waves - a study based on measured buoy data and ERA-Interim reanalysis data
(Copernicus Publications for EGU, 2017)
An assessment of extreme wave characteristics during the design of marine facilities not only helps to ensure their safety but also assess the economic aspects. In this study, return levels of significant wave height (Hs) ...
