Temporal and spatial variations in particulate matter, particulate organic carbon and attenuation coefficient in Cochin Backwaters
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1989)
Nine stations over a stretch of 21 km of Periyar river estuary were sampled during January to December 1981. Particulate matter varied from 3-253 mg.1 super(1) at the surface and 24.8-257mg.1 super(1) at the bottom. ...
Wind stress, curl and vertical velocity in the Bay of Bengal during southwest monsoon, 1984
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1989)
Wind distribution observed during southwest monsoon of 1984 has used to derive the mean wind stress for the season at every 1 degree square grid and curl over the Bay of Bengal. Two regions of maximum wind stress are present ...
Evaporation over the Arabian Sea during two contrasting monsoons
(Springer, 1989)
Monthly mean surface fields of different meteorological parameters and evaporation are studied for the 1979 (poor monsoon) and 1983 (good monsoon) monsoon seasons over the Arabian Sea, in order to understand the role of ...
Particulate organic matter in shelf waters of Prinsesse Asrid Kyst, Antarctica
(Cambridge University Press, 1989)
In the coastal and estuarine waters of Goa, particulate organic carbon (POC) varied from 0.52 to 2.51 mg l-1 and from 0.28 to 5.24 mg l-1 and particulate phosphorus (PP) varied from 0.71 to 5.18 mu g l-1 and from 0.78 to ...
Application of longshore transport equations to Andhra coast, East coast of India
(Elsevier, 1988)
Ship-reported waves published in the Indian Daily Weather Report are compiled for a period of 16 years and are used for the estimation of the longshore transport rate. Using the two well known longshore transport equations, ...
Influence of eastern Arabian Sea on summer monsoon rainfall over west coast of India
(Indian Meteorological Society, 1989)
Sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies have been assigned as one of the boundary conditions in the global circulation models for simulation of climatic changes. The effects of SST anomalies on the summer monsoon simulations ...
Zooplankton studies in Visakhapatnam harbour and nearshore waters, east coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Distribution of zooplankton biomass in the waters studied showed remarkable variations. The faunal composition was very diverse and the number of species present was more especially during late pre- and post-monsoon seasons ...
Variability of wind stress and currents at selected locations over the north Indian Ocean during 1977 and 1979 summer monsoon seasons
(India Meteorological Department, 1988)
Intra-seasonal variability of wind stress, wind stress curl and currents at different locations over the northern Indian Ocean during two contrasting monsoon seasons has been investigated making use of the time series data ...
Sediment boron and its relation to sediment properties in a tropical estuary
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1988)
Boron in the sediments of Mandovi estuary varied from 8.0 to 258.0 ppm with an average of 118 ppm. It showed an inverse relation to the texture of sediments and was found to be concentrated in silt and clay fraction with ...
Seasonal cycle of surface circulation in the coastal North Indian Ocean
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1988)
Monthly-mean winds and currents have been used to identify the driving mechanisms of seasonal coastal circulation in the North Indian Ocean. The main conclusions are: (i) the surface circulation off Arabia is typical of a ...
