Influence of the monsoon trough on air-sea interaction in the head of the Bay of Bengal during the southwest monsoon of 1990 (monsoon trough boundary layer experiment - 90)
(Kluwer, 1997)
The analysis of 3-hourly time-series data on surface meteorological parameters collected at 20 degrees N, 89 degrees E in the head of the Bay of Bengal during the southwest monsoon period (18 August - 19 Spetember) of 1990 ...
Wave refraction and prediction of breaker parameters along the Kerala Coast, India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)
Numerical wave refraction study for the Kerala Coast has been carried out for waves representing southwest monsoon (June-September), northest monsoon (October-February) and fair weather period (February-May). Distribution ...
On the dynamics of the Lakshadweep high and low in the southeastern Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 1997)
Hydrography and altimetry show that a "high" in surface topography forms off southwest India in January (midnortheast monsoon) and that a "low" forms during the southwest monsoon; the high and low, called Lakshadweep high ...
A semi-diagnostic calculation of climatic circulation in the western Indian Ocean
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)
A 3-dimensional, semi-diagnostic circulation model is used to compute the climatic circulation in the upper levels of western tropical Indian Ocean (20 degrees S-30 degrees N and 35 degrees E-80 degrees E) during the ...
Annual and interannual variation of precipitation over the tropical Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 1997)
The annual and interannual variability of precipitation over the tropical Indian Ocean is studied for the period June 1986 to December 1990 using the data retrieved from the Indian National Satellite (INSAT). The seasonal ...
RIP current zones along beaches in Goa, west coast of India
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1997)
Goa has a 125-km-long coastline of which two-thirds consists of beautiful sandy beaches. There are mainly 17 beaches having significant importance of tourism. Sporadically, surf drownings have been reported at a few stretches ...
Climate induced changes in beach morphology and sediment dynamics, Machilipatnam
(Cent. for Earth Sci. Stud., Cochin (India), 1997)
The wave climate, littoral current patterns, monthly and seasonal longshore drift rates, beach profile changes, and sediment budget of the beach sediments were determined along Machilipatnam, Andhra Pradesh (India) for the ...
Impact of 1990-'95 ENSO/WEPO event on Indian monsoon rainfall
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)
The negative phase of the 1990-'95 El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the associated Warming of the Equatorial Pacific Ocean (WEPO) was the longest observed in the 113 years of its recorded history, compared to its ...
Biodeterioration of wood in estuarine ecosystem of Goa
(US Office of Naval Research, 1997)
An assessment of macrofouling and wood boring community at different localities of Zuari and Mandovi estuaries of Goa carried out. Wood panels of Mangifera indica of 10 x 15 x 2.5 cm size were exposed in this investigation. ...
Predicting monsoon rainfall and pressure indices from sea surface temperature
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, 1997)
The relationship between the sea surface temperature (SST) in the Indian Ocean and monsoon rainfall has been examined by using 21 years data set (1967-87) of MOHSST.6 (Met. Office Historical Sea Surface Temperature data ...
