Distribution of Bowen ratio over the north Indian Ocean
(India Meteorological Department, 1986)
The monthly averages of Bowen ratio over the north Indian Ocean have been computed Three typical situations in the months of January May and September are taken for the present study Month to month differences in the Bowen ...
Estuarine characteristics of the lower reaches of the River Periyar (Cochin backwater)
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Lower reaches of river Periyar were studied to assess longitudinal extent of salt water intrusion into the system during different seasons and also its effect on the flushing of pollutants introduced by the industries. ...
Circulation and watermass structure in the Central Arabian Sea during December 1982
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
After the cessation of the SW monsoon over Arabian Sea, the North Equatorial Current sets strongly and the low saline waters from the Bay of Bengal and the equatorial Indian Ocean penetrate into the Arabian Sea. This results ...
Studies on Thiobacilli spp. isolated from sandy beaches of Kerala
(Society of Fisheries Technologists, 1986)
Occurrence, isolation and oxidative activity of Thiobacilli spp. from some sandy beaches of Kerala are reported. These organisms were encountered in polluted beaches and were dominant during monsoon in all the beaches
Variations of dissolved oxygen in Mandovi and Zuari estuaries
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
During non-monsoon months the estuaries were well mixed showing uniform oxygen concentrations from surface to bottom. However, during monsoon months both the estuaries showed stratified conditions with surface water showing ...
Relationship between particulate and extracellular carbon compounds of phytoplankton photosynthesis in a tropical estuary
(Inter-Research, 1986)
The influence of seasonal environmental conditions on the formation and release of organic compounds by photosynthesizing phytoplankton was studied in a tropical estuary. The pattern of 14C fixation into the various ...
Upwelling and sinking along Visakhapatnam coast
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Stability and stratification of the water over the shelf disappear as cold saline waters characteristic of 60 m depth rise to the surface during March. Tilting of isopycnals and offshore displacement of isohalines suggest ...
Oceanography of Wadge bank - current measurements over a tidal cycle off the south coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Direct current measurements made during the onset and termination of SW monsoon indicate wide fluctuations in space and time. The nearshore current decreases in magnitude from the onset to the termination of the monsoon. ...
Topography and sedimentary characteristics of the sandy beach of Kavaratti (Lakshadweep) - a premonsoonal study
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
During the southwest monsoon beach sediments on the western coast of Kavaratti are transported from the southern tip of the island to its northern tip. After the monsoon the littoral current reverses and the redistribution ...
Sea surface temperature variability over North Indian Ocean - A study of two contrasting monsoon seasons
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1986)
Using the satellite derived sea surface temperature (SST) data for 1979 (bad monsoon) and 1983 (good monsoon), the SST variability for two contrasting monsoon seasons is studied. The study indicates that large negative ...
