Wind-wave measurements and modelling in the shallow semi-enclosed Palk Bay
(2019)
Wind-wave characteristics of the Palk Bay, a semi-enclosed water body, are studied by the wave measurements carried out at 2 locations during a one-year period. The analysis of wave data sets shows that wind-sea dominates ...
Variability of the local wave regime and the wave-induced sediment transport along the Ganpatipule coast, eastern Arabian Sea
(2019)
For planning coastal protection measures, information on nearshore waves and the wave-induced sediment transport rates are required. This study examines wave-induced longshore sediment transport (LST) rate considering three ...
Evolution of wave spectra during sea breeze and tropical cyclone
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)
Wave spectral components change with time and through space by receiving energy from wind, through non-linear energy transfer among the spectral components and dissipation due to white-capping and friction. Changes in wave ...
Observations of surface wave fields in the Arabian Sea under tropical cyclone Tauktae
(Elsevier, 2021)
The characteristics of surface wave fields in the eastern Arabian Sea under tropical cyclone Tauktae were investigated using buoy data. On May 16, 2021, the cyclone passed within 96 km of the buoy location, and a maximum ...
Evaluation of a few wave energy converters for the Indian shelf seas based on available wave power
(Elsevier, 2022)
The energy resource assessment at a location is crucial for designing wave energy projects. However, there is a divergence in wave energy converter (WEC) design due to diversity in wave climate, energy availability, and ...
Spectral peak wave period climatology and its relationship with natural climate variability over the Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2021)
The predominance of swells or wind-seas at a location can be inferred from the spectral peak wave period (Tp). The present study examines the climatology of Tp and its variability in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) during the last ...
Spectral wave characteristics in the coastal waters of the central west coast of India during tropical cyclone Kyarr
(Springer, 2022)
The study presents the assessment of spectral wave conditions in the coastal waters of the central west coast of India based on data from waverider buoys at two locations during the passage of tropical cyclone Kyarr. Due ...
Tidal hydrodynamics and flushing characteristics of Gulf of Khambhat, west coast of India - A numerical approach
(Springer, 2021)
Tidal hydrodynamics of the Gulf of Khambhat (GoK) were studied with the observed and simulated datasets. The Cushing time of the Gulf was estimated using the 2D-model calibrated and validated with the tide and current speed ...
The maxima in northerly wind speeds and wave heights over the Arabian Sea, the Arabian/Persian Gulf and the Red Sea derived from 40�years of ERA5 data
(Springer, 2021)
Recent studies point out the importance of northerly winds and waves in the Arabian Sea, especially those due to shamal and makran events in addition to the northeast monsoon system. We have analyzed climatology and trends ...
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) ...
