Simulating the discharge of the Mandovi River, Goa
(Jain Brothers, New Delhi, 2004)Simulation studies are carried out to estimate the discharge of the Mandovi River, Goa. The Mandovi River catchment area includes the slopes of the Sahyadris, where estimates of precipitation are not available. A multivariate ... -
Impact of temperature inversions on SST evolution in the South-Eastern Arabian Sea during the pre-summer monsoon season
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)Temperature inversions are known to occur in the near-surface ocean regime where salinity stratification is large enough to influence the density field. However, they have not been known as features that alter near-surface ... -
A new technique for the estimation of sea surface salinity in the tropical Indian Ocean from OLR
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)Algorithms are developed for the estimation of sea surface salinity (SSS) in the tropical Indian Ocean from the space-borne satellite measurements of outgoing longwave radiation (OLR). The algorithms are based on the ... -
Forecasting of onset of southwest monsoon over Kerala coast using satellite data
(IEEE, 2004)The Global Precipitation and in situ gauge data have been used in the present study of the Indian monsoon for the region bounded by 8 to 13 degrees N; 70 degrees to 95 degrees E, from March 1 to May 31 for the years 1979 ... -
Assessment of wave modeling results with buoy and altimeter deep water waves for a summer monsoon
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2004)A second-generation offshore spectral wave model has been applied to simulate wind waves over the north Indian Ocean during May-August 2000 using 6 hourly NCEP re-analysis wind data. The significant wave height (SWH), wave ... -

Why is Bay of Bengal warmer than Arabian Sea during the summer monsoon?
(School of Naval Oceanology and Meteorology, India, 2004)The near-surface Bay of Bengal remains significantly warmer than the Arabian Sea during summer monsoon (June-September). Analysis of the heat budgets of the near-surface Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal shows significant ... -
Seasonal variability of cyclone heat potential in the Bay of Bengal
(Kluwer Academic, 2004)Monthly maps of cyclone heat potential (CHP) in the Bay of Bengal have been prepared by using Levitus climatological data set. Seasonal variability of CHP in the Bay of Bengal has been studied using the CTD data sets ... -
Seasonal variability of tidal and non-tidal currents off Beypore, SW coast of India
(School of Naval Oceanology and Meteorology, 2004)Analyses of current meter records generated in the coastal waters off Beypore (11 degrees 10 minutes S; 75 degrees 48 minutes E) on the southwest coast of India have been made to understand the tidal and non-tidal variability ... -
A biweekly mode in the equatorial Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)The National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, India, deployed moorings with several subsurface current meters at 0 degrees, 93 degrees E (in February 2000) and 0 degrees, 83 degrees E (in December 2000) in the eastern Indian ... -
Flow field in the inner shelf along the central east coast of India during the southwest monsoon season
(Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2004)Current measurements collected along the inner shelf off the central east coast of India at seven stations during August-September 1988 are discussed. Data indicate a southerly flowing alongshore current, which occupies ... -
Monsoon onset over Kerala and pre monsoon rainfall peak
(School of Naval Oceanology and Meteorology, India, 2004)In the present study the pentad Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) estimate have been used, which is a blended product of microwave, infrared and in-situ gauge data for the region bounded by 8 degrees - 13 ... -
Analysis of extreme sea level along the east coast of India
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)Hourly tide gauge data were analyzed for extreme sea level for three stations, Paradip, Vishakhapatnam, and Chennai, along the east coast of India. These stations are tidally dominant, with the magnitudes of tides exceeding ... -
