Spectra of currents and temperature off Godavari (east coast of India)
Abstract
Time series data of currents and temperature obtained from a mooring of current meters off Godavari (East Coast of India) during September 1980 are analysed to study the space scales of semidiurnal and internal oscillations in the range of buoyancy and internal frequencies. Rotary spectra of currents and spectra of temperature are computed and presented. Influence of semidiurnal tide is well discernible upto the bottom layers. Turbulence is observed near 15 m depth. Existence of internal waves is clearly seen from temperature spectra at all the depths.
