Observation of dominance of swells over wind seas in the coastal waters of the Gulf of Mannar, India
(Copernicus Publications for EGU, 2017)
Wind seas typically dominate over swell seas in coastal gulfs. Waves measured at a location having a water depth of 12?m in the near-shore waters of the Gulf of Mannar during a 1-year period (1 May 2015 to 30 April 2016) ...
Surface wave climatology and its variability in the North Indian Ocean based on ERA-Interim reanalysis
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)
The climate over the north Indian Ocean (NIO) is one of the most dynamic in the world because of seasonally reversing monsoon winds. In this study, the climate of the NIO and the variability of its surface waves using the ...
Nearshore currents along the Karnataka coast, west coast of India
(Multi-Science Publishing, 2012)
Measured current data at 7 locations and tide data at 3 locations during the pre-summer monsoon period along the west coast of India is used in the study. The surface currents during March showed a predominant northward ...
Variations in nearshore waves along Karnataka, west coast of India
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2012)
Wind wave spectra were recorded simultaneously at three shallow (water depth 7–9 m) locations (Malpe, Honnavar and Karwar) along the 200 km stretch of the state of Karnataka in 2009 during 27 April–24 May (representing ...
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) ...
Short-term statistics of waves measured off Ratnagiri, eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2015)
The short-term wave characteristics are required for design and operation of industrial facilities within the coastal areas. Water surface displacement measured using waverider buoy moored at 13 m water depth in the eastern ...
Interannual and seasonal variations in nearshore wave characteristics off Honnavar, west coast of India
(Current Science Association, 2012)
Interannual and seasonal variations in nearshore surface wave parameters over a period of three years (March 2008 - March 2011) were examined based on the measured wave data at 9 m water depth off Honnavar, west coast of ...
Inter-annual variations in wave characteristics off Ratnagiri, Northeast Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2015)
The wave data measured using the Datawell directional wave rider buoy at 13 m water depth off Ratnagiri during 2010 to 2013 is used to study the inter-annual variations in the wave characteristics. The percentage occurrence ...
Temporal variations in the wind and wave climate at a location in the eastern Arabian Sea based on ERA-Interim reanalysis data.
(European Geosciences Union, 2014)
Temporal variations in wind speed and significant wave height (SWH) at a location in the eastern Arabian Sea are studied using ERA-Interim reanalysis data from 1979 to 2012. A shallow water location is selected for the ...
Freak waves off Ratnagiri, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Freak waves are relatively large and spontaneous ocean surface gravity waves whose heights are larger than the expected maximum wave height for a given sea state Wave data collected off Ratnagiri, along the west coast of ...
