Dynamics of circulation and salt balance in the upper reaches of Periyar river estuary
Varma, P.U.; Pylee, A.; Sankaranarayanan, V.N. (Kerala: State Committee on Science, Technology and Environment, 1987)The Eulerian residual currents of the upper reaches of Periyar estuary (Kerala, India) were directed down the estuary throughout the water column during the monsoon season. During the summer months the residual flow was ... -
Estuarine characteristics of the lower reaches of the River Periyar (Cochin backwater)
Sankaranarayanan, V.N.; Varma, P.U.; Balachandran, K.K.; Pylee, A.; Joseph, T. (CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)Lower reaches of river Periyar were studied to assess longitudinal extent of salt water intrusion into the system during different seasons and also its effect on the flushing of pollutants introduced by the industries. ... -
Hydrographic characteristics and tidal prism at the Cochin Harbour mouth
RamaRaju, V.S.; Varma, P.U.; Pylee, A. (CSIR-NISCAIR, 1979) -
Residual fluxes of salt and water in the Azhikode estuary, west coast of India
Pylee, A.; Varma, P.U.; Revichandran, C. (1992)Monthly synoptic measurements of current speed, direction, salinity and temperature were made at three sections in the Azhikode Estuary, Kerala, India, for a period of one year. The observations were extended over a complete ... -
Sediment Budget of a Portion of Trivandrum Beach (Kerala)
Varma, P.U.; RamaRaju, V.S.; Pylee, A.; Swamy, G.N. (Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)Results of beach profile studies carried out on a section of 2.4 kilometres of the Trivandrum Beach during the period April 1976 to March 1977 are presented in this paper. It is evident from these studies that shoreline ... -
Siltation in the outer channel of Cochin harbour

Some aspects of circulation and mixing in lower reaches of Periyar estuary, west coast of India
Pylee, A.; Varma, P.U.; Revichandran, C. (NISCAIR, CSIR, 1990) -
Stability of the coastline from Manakkodam to Thottappally along the Kerala coast
Varma, P.U.; Varadachari, V.V.R. (Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1977) -
Studies on the sediment transport in Mopla Bay harbour cannanore, using fluorescent tracers

The shrinking backwaters of Kerala
Gopalan, U.K.; Vengayil, D.T.; Varma, P.U.; Kutty, M.K. (Marine Biological Association of India, 1983)The most serious anthropogenic environmental alteration taken place in the estuaries of Kerala, India in the living memory, is it's alarming rate of reduction in extent. Vembanad Kayal, the largest backwaters system on the ... -
Tidal Influence on the Seasonal Variation in Current and Salinity around Willingdon Island
Varma, P.U.; Pylee, A.; RamaRaju, V.S. (Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1981)The general distribution of current and salinity of Mattancherry and Ernakulam channels and the Cochin Harbour mouth, Kerala, India is presented and discussed in relation to the tide. During monsoon season stratification ... -
Topography and sedimentary characteristics of the sandy beach of Kavaratti (Lakshadweep) - a premonsoonal study
SanilKumar, K.V.; Shyam, K.R.; Varma, P.U.; Sivadas, P. (CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)During the southwest monsoon beach sediments on the western coast of Kavaratti are transported from the southern tip of the island to its northern tip. After the monsoon the littoral current reverses and the redistribution ... -
Water and salt budget in the Azikode estuary during postmonsoon season
Revichandran, C.; Shyam, K.R.; Varma, P.U.; Pylee, A. (CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)Computed values of flux showed that seaward Eulerian residual flow of water was the major factor influencing the salt and water budget in the Azikode Estuary. Depth integrated residual flow was seaward at all depths. ... -
