Wave refraction patterns and their role in sediment redistribution along South Konkan, Maharashtra, India
(University of Bologna, 2008)Wave refraction studies were undertaken for the nearshore sediments of four bays, Wada Vetye, Ambolgarh, Rajapur and Vijaydurg along the Konkan coast, Mahamhtra, Central west coast of India, to understand the effect of ... -
Application of neural networks in coastal engineering - An overview
(Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, 2008)Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is being applied to solve a wide variety of coastal/ocean engineering problems. In practical terms ANNs are non-linear modeling tools and they can be used to model complex relationship between ... -
Coral reef research in India
(Centre for Environmental Studies, 2008)The article focuses on current developments regarding reef research in India, rather than dwelling at length why reefs are important, how they function and what resources they sustain. It is known from the many articles ... -
Investigation of normal force and moment coefficients for an AUV at nonlinear angle of attack and sideslip range
(IEEE, 2008)This paper presents a comparative study of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and analytical and semiempirical (ASE) methods applied to the prediction of the normal force and moment coefficients of an autonomous underwater ... -
Piram island: Pirates Fort in the Gulf of Khambat
(Indian Archaeological Society, 2008)Traditionally, Piram Island has been considered as landmark point for the navigators in the Gulf of Cambay. The mention has also been made that Island has served as heaven for pirates. A coastal archaeological exploration ... -
Role of microbes in the ecology of marine environment
(Centre for Environmental Studies, 2008)Microbes are mostly unicellular microscopic living entities falling under the domains Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya. They have multiple roles to play in the environment both for their own survival and towards maintaining ... -
Stability prediction of berm breakwater using neural network
(Dubai Municipality, 2008)In the present study, an artificial neural network method has been applied to predict the stability of berm breakwaters. Four neural network models are constructed based on the parameters which influence the stability of ... -
Microlevel mapping of coastal geomorphology and coastal resources of Rameswaram island, India: A remote sensing and GIS perspective
(Coastal Education and Reserch Foundation, 2010)Coastal areas are facing serious threats from both manmade and natural disturbances; coastal erosion, sea-level variation, and cyclones are the major factors that alter the coastal topography and coastal resources of the ... -
Investigation of the generation and propagation of low frequency internal waves: A case study for the east coast of India
(Elsevier, 2010)SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) images in the northwest Bay of Bengal indicate the existence of internal waves and their occurrence and intensity is topography dependent as indicated by in-situ data and satellite information. ... -
Natural and human-induced hypoxia and consequences for coastal areas: Synthesis and future development
(European Geosciences Union, 2010)Hypoxia has become a world-wide phenomenon in the global coastal ocean and causes a deterioration of the structure and function of ecosystems. Based on the collective contributions of members of SCOR Working Group 128, the ... -
Biochemical composition and caloric content in the sand whiting Sillago sihama (Forsskal), from Zuari Estuary, Goa
(ICAR, India, 2010)Fish condition as well as the seasonal variation in biochemical composition (moisture content, lipid, protein and carbohydrate) of an economically important fish, Sillago sihama (Forsskal), from Zuari estuary, Goa were ... -
Estimating transmitted waves of floating breakwater using support vector regression model
(IIT Bombay, 2009)Planning and design of coastal protection works like floating breakwaters requires information about the performance characteristics of the structure in reducing the wave energy. They can be used as a temporary protection ... -
Seasonal sea level variability and anomalies in the Singapore Strait
(IIT; Madras, 2009)Measured sea level data and extracted sea level anomalies (SLAs) for the Singapore Strait for the last 24 years have been analyzed. We have also analysed NCEP winds over the South China Sea for the same period in order to ... -
Assessment of the impact of developmental activities on estuarine environments of Mandovi and Zuari rivers of Goa along the west coast of India
(IIT; Madras, 2009)This paper discusses physico-chemical and biological data for EIA as regards construction of two jetties in the estuarine environments of Mandovi and Zuari rivers of Goa (India). Multivariate statistical techniques (Factor ... -
Wave transmission prediction of multilayer floating breakwater using neural network
(IIT; Madras, 2009)In the present study, an artificial neural network method has been applied for wave transmission prediction of multilayer floating breakwater. Two neural network models are constructed based on the parameters which influence ... -
Methods of gas hydrate concentration estimation with field examples
(Society of Petroleum Geophysicists, India, 2009)The presence of gas hydrates alters the bulk physical properties of the host sediments. The deviation of the physical property in the hydrated layer from the regional (hydrate-free background) trend can be used to estimate ... -
