Barotropic tidal model for the Bombay High, Gulf of Khambhat and surrounding areas
(Naval Physical and Oceanographic Laboratory, Thrikkakara, Kochi, India, 1998)A barotropic model is developed for the shelf region off the central west coast of India, which includes the regions of Bombay High and Gulf of Khambhat, in order to simulate tides and tidal currents in the region. The ... -
Butyltins in the sediments of Kochi and Mumbai harbours, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2006)Surface sediment samples were collected from various locations in the Mumbai and Kochi harbours, west coast of India, to assess the presence of butyltin compounds. Tributyltin (TBT) and dibutyltin (DBT) varied from 16 to ... -
Marine environmental intimidation to Sundarbans embankments
(Sundarban Affiars Department, WB, 2005)Protection of Sundarbans (West Bengal, India) embankments is an enormous task. There are many external forces that are responsible to destabilize the embankment. River flows with tides is responsible as one of the major ... -
Physical characteristics of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat, West coast of India. Part 1. Current pattern
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1982)Surface and bottom current patterns of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat (Maharashtra-Gujarat Industrial Belt) are described in relation to tides and other environmental parameters. The results of the analysis ... -
Physical characteristics of the coastal waters between Navapur and Umbharat, West coast of India. Part 2. Vertical homogeneity of temperature and salinity
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1982)Vertical distribution of temperature and salinity at five stations in the coastal waters off Navapur-Umbharat (Maharashtra-Gujarat coast, India) was studied over different seasons during 1978. The results showed that inspite ... -
Physical oceanography
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 2001)The chapter on physical oceanography of the Indian Ocean is written keeping in mind the graduate students and researchers. It starts with a brief introduction (citing latest expeditions) followed by the coastal and near ... -
Prediction of tides using back-propagation neural networks
(Allied, Chennai, 2001)Prediction of tides is very much essential for human activities and to reduce the construction cost in marine environment. This paper presents an application of the artificial neural network with back-propagation procedures ... -
Residual fluxes and suspended sediment transport in the lower reaches of Muvattupuzha River, southwest coast of India
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1993)Spatial and seasonal variation of different physical processes governing the transport of salt and sediment of the Muvattupuzha River, in Kerala, India are discussed. Salt and suspended sediment due to tidal pumping was ... -
Sediment dispersal in the macro tidal Gulf of Kachchh, India
(NIO, Dona Paula, Goa (India), 2000)Studies of sub-bottom physiography, tidal parameters and characteristics of the sediment in the Gulf of Kachchh have been made. The tidal range becomes progressively higher in the inner gulf with associated high magnitude ... -
Tidal regime in Gulf of Kutch, west coast of India, by 2D model
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1999)A 2D barotropic numerical model is developed for the Gulf of Kutch with a view to synthesize available information on tides and currents in the Gulf. A comparison of model results with moored current meter observations ... -
Tides in the Gulf of Khambhat, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2003)Semi-diurnal tides in the Gulf of Khambhat (Cambay), west coast of India, amplify about threefold from mouth to head. In contrast, the amplification of diurnal tides is much smaller. A one-dimensional barotropic model with ... -
Vertical migratory rhythms of benthic diatoms in a tropical intertidal sand flat: Influence of irradiance and tides
(Springer, 2004)Vertical migratory behavior of benthic diatoms is one of the adaptive strategies employed for a life in intertidal habitats. Irradiance and tides are considered to be the key factors governing vertical migration. Experiments ...
