How consistent is the satellite derived SST-LHF relationship in comparison with observed values ?
(Taylor & Francis, 2008)Time series data for sea surface temperature (moored buoy), wind speed, air temperature, sea level pressure, relative humidity, short wave radiation and rainfall were collected close to the Lakshadweep islands for five ... -
Retrieval of sea surface humidity and back radiation from satellite data
(The Indian Society of Remote Sensing, 2007)The paper presents a procedure and a software package to compute the sea surface humidity and atmospheric back radiation over the sea from satellite data. These parameters play an important role in air-sea exchange of heat, ... -
Surface layer temperature inversion in the Bay of Bengal
(Pergamon, 2002)Surface layer temperature inversion occurring in the Bay of Bengal has been addressed. Hydrographic data archived in the Indian Oceanographic Data Center are used to understand various aspects of the temperature inversion ... -
Validation of ERS-1 and high-resolution satellite gravity with in-situ shipborne gravity over the Indian offshore regions: Accuracies and implications to subsurface modeling
(Taylor & Francis, 2007)Geoid and gravity anomalies derived from satellite altimetry are gradually gaining importance in marine geoscientific investigations. Keeping this in mind, we have validated ERS-1 (168 day repeat) altimeter data and very ... -
Soft and hard computing approaches for real-time prediction of currents in a tide-dominated coastal area
(IMechE, 2007)The prediction of tidal currents in the coastal region on a real-time or online basis is useful in taking operation- and planning-related decisions such as towing of vessels and monitoring of oil slick movements. Currently, ... -
Modulation of antioxidant and biotransformation enzymes in the gills of Perna viridis (L.) exposed to water accomodate fraction of diesel
(IOS Press, 2007)Investigations on the effect of oils on the oxidative stress and antioxidant molecules in gills of Perna viridis were carried out under controlled laboratory conditions. For this purpose water accommodate fraction of diesel ... -
Luminescence chronology of a second millenium BCE settlement near Porbandar on the Gujarat coast, India
(2007)An onshore excavation at Bokhira (Porbandar) on the Saurashtra coast has revealed a late Harappan settlement dating back to the early 2nd millennium BCE. Four trenches were dug in an agricultural land where an occupational ... -
Archaeological sites on the Indian Ocean Rim - A growing database
(2007)This section is designed to act as a plafform for reporting explored and excavated sites of all periods located along the Indian Ocean rim. The Indian Ocean is broadly defined It Includes the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, the ... -
Offshore limit of coastal ocean variability identified from hydrography and altimeter data in the eastern Arabian Sea
(Pergamon, 2002)In this communication, we describe a hitherto-unknown offshore limit to the coastal ocean variability signatures away from the continental shelf in the eastern Arabian Sea, based on hydrographic observations and satellite ... -
Differences in heat budgets of the near-surface Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal: Implications for the summer monsoon
(American Geophysical Union, 2002)An analysis of the heat budgets of the near-surface Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal shows significant differences between them during the summer monsoon (June-September). In the Arabian Sea the winds associated with the ... -
Air-sea interactions and exchanges
(JGOFS International Project Office, University of Bergen, Norway, 2002)To support the idea that the Arabian Sea makes a significant contribution to biogeochemical ocean-atmosphere transfer processes, quantification of parameters such as carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, ammonia and ... -
Sedimentation
(JGOFS International Project Office, University of Bergen, Norway, 2002)The Monsoonal impact on the deep ocean fluxes, organic carbon export into the ocean's interior, and the difference between the deep-sea organic carbon fluxes and sedimentary organic carbon burial rates in the Arabian Sea ... -
Stone anchors from Bet Dwarka Island, Gujarat, Coast, India: Significance to historical period maritime activities
(Australasian Institute of Maritime Archaeology, 2002)Bet Dwarka Island is situated on the extreme west of Indian territory in Jamnagar district of Gujarat. Underwater, the most preserved remains of ancient maritime activity could be the stone anchors of different types, as ... -
Influence of a tropical cyclone on chlorophyll-a concentration in the Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 2002)The effect of a tropical cyclone on the variation of phytoplankton biomass in terms of surface chlorophyll-a is brought out based on satellite observations and mixed layer model simulations in the Arabian Sea during 21 ... -
A review and re-assessment of sediment transport along the Goa Coast, India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2002)Although, a variety of methods have been employed to determine sediment transport along Goa coast, India, the results differ in some sections. Fifteen studies have been reviewed, compared, re-assessed and a corrected shore ... -
Seismic and sequence stratigraphy of the central western continental margin of India: late-Quaternary evolution
(Elsevier, 2002)Seismic and sequence stratigraphic architecture of the central western continental margin of India (between Coondapur and south of Mangalore) has been investigated with shallow seismic data. Seismic stratigraphic analysis ... -
Magnetic basement in the central Bay of Bengal
(Kluwer, 2002)Analyses of about 6000 km of processed magnetic data in the central Bay of Bengal using Analytical Signal Processing and Werner Deconvolution techniques revealed that the depth to top of the magnetic basement varies between ... -
Comparison of nutritional status of field and laboratory reared Balanus amphitrite Darwin (Cirripedia: Thoracica) larvae and implication of starvation
(Elsevier, 2002)Experiments were carried out to evaluate the influence of rearing temperature and food concentration (20 and 30 degrees C, 1x10 sup(5) and 2x10 sup(5) cells ml sup(-1)) on the starvation threshold and nucleic acid content ... -
Bioremediation of coloured pollutants by terrestrial versus facultative marine fungi
(Fungal Diversity Press; Hong Kong; China, 2002)Lignin is a most complex heteropolymer and does not contain identical, readily hydrolysable repeating linkages at regular intervals as in other natural polymers such as cellulose, protein or nucleic acids. The random nature ... -
Need for setback lines in coastal zone management: A meteorological point of view
(Indian Meteorological Society, Mumbai (India), 2002)Hydrometeorological events are the greatest coastal hazard for the Indian people. The Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) Notification, which includes areas likely to be flooded by sea level rise due to global warming should, ...
