Change detection studies of Sagar Island, India, using Indian Remote Sensing Satellite 1C linear imaging self-scan sensor III data
(The Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2007)The coastal zone of Sagar Island, West Bengal, India, is subjected to various cyclic and random processes that continuously modify the region. The shoreline and land-use/land cover changes have been studied using Indian ... -
Basin-wide seasonal evolution of the Indian Ocean's phytoplankton blooms
(American Geophysical Union, 2007)A climatology of Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-View Sensor (SeaWiFS) chlorophyll data over the Indian Ocean is used to examine the bloom variability patterns, identifying spatio-temporal contrasts in bloom appearance and ... -
Influence of monsoon upwelling on the planktonic foraminifera off Oman during Late Quaternary
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2007)Planktonic foraminifer abundances, fluxes, test sizes, and coiling properties are influenced in various ways by the southwest monsoon winds and associated upwelling in the western Arabian Sea. The influence of monsoon ... -

Heavy mineral placers off Kalbadevi Bay, Ratnagiri, Maharashtra
(Macmillan, India, 2007)Sedimentological and heavy mineral studies were carried out for two offshore profiles in the Kalbadevi Bay, Ratnagiri, Maharashtra. The surface samples from the Bay were collected during pre- and post- monsoon period (i.e. ... -
Impact of coastal morphology, structure and seismicity on the tsunami surge
(Taylor and Francis, 2007)The twin events of the earthquake and tsunami not only stress the importance of an integrated warning system for the Indian Ocean rim countries but also the need for new disaster management plans to mitigate such hazards. ... -
Source and dispersal of suspended sediment in the macro-tidal Gulf of Kachchh
(Elsevier, 2007)The macro-tidal Gulf of Kachchh, covering nearly 7000 km sup(2), is located about 150 km south of the Indus River mouth. In spite of semi-arid climate and lack of major rivers flowing into it, the Gulf is highly turbid ... -
Application of remote sensing and GIS for the demarcation of groundwater potential zones of a river basin in Kerala, southwest coast of India
