dc.description.abstractThis study presents the salient results of the oceanographic investigations carried out along the west coast of India to locate a dumping site for the dredged material generated from the capital dredging of the proposed development of the all weather port. Based on the results of movement of disposed material obtained from a 2 dimensional coastal circulation model and considering the possibility of having a navigational channel later on in line with the port, a dumping site is recommended at the 15 m water depth contour with coordinates: Latitude 11 degrees 07.00 minutes; Longitude 75 degrees 45.60 minutes, where the environmental impacts on the ecosystem due to dumping operations is considered to be minimum
