Longshore currents and associated sediment transport in the nearshore areas of Kerala and Goa, west coast of India
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)The field observations on the longshore currents at selected locations along the coasts of Goa and Kerala on the western seaboard spanning over a period of five years revealed high variability in their direction and speed. ... -
Longshore currents and sediment trnsport along Kannirajapuram Coast, Tamilnadu, India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2000)The objective of the study was to estimate longshore current and sediment transport from measured wave data and from the observations on the littoral environment. A directional wave rider buoy was deployed at 12m water ... -
Longshore currents on a meso-tidal beach of Goa, India - Measurements and improved formulae
(CSIR-NISCPR, New Delhi, 2023)Field experiments in the surfzone were conducted on a meso-tidal beach stretch between Sinquerim and Baga off Goa on India's central west coast. Surfzone waves and currents were measured using an array of seabird wave and ... -
Longshore sediment transport along the Indian coast
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1991)An empirical sediment transport model has been developed based on longshore energy flux equation. Ship reported waves, published in Indian Daily Weather Reports, are compiled for 19 y and used for estimation of sediment ... -
Longshore sediment transport in the surf zone based on different formulae: A case study along the central west coast of India
(Springer, 2017)Understanding longshore sediment transport (LST) is a prerequisite for designing an effective coastal zone management strategy. The present study estimates the LST along the central west coast of India based on four bulk ... -
Longshore sediment transport model for the Indian west coast
(Coastal Research Foundation, 1992)Longshore sediment transport rates for the Indian west coast from Cochin to Porbandar are estimated from ship observed wave data (1968 to 1986). The sediment transport rate is relatively high during the southwest monsoon ... -
Longshore sediment transport rate-measurement and estimation, central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2003)Measurements of the longshore sediment transport rate (LSTR) along the surf zone at a 4-km-long beach on the central west coast of India were made over a 4-month period. During the study, both the lateral and vertical ... -
Longshore transport based on directional waves along north Tamilnadu Coast, India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2001)The accurate assessment of longshore sediment transport pattern along Nagapattinam-Poompuhar, Tamil Nadu, India coastline bears significance due to the historical erosion and its geographical location adjoining the sheltered ... -
Looking for the Harappan Ports around Dholavira, Khadir Bet, Kachchh, Gujarat
(2019)The rise of Harappan settlement at Dholavira is attributed to multidimensional factors which may include industrial activities, overseas trade and commerce and distribution of resources available in the Kachchh to other ... -
Lores, legends and lodes from lake superior - Mother of copper deposits
(Geological Society of India, 2002)Copper rarely occurs in huge quantities in native form. But an exception is the renowned century old Lake Superior mining region in Northern Michigan, USA, of which many interesting lores and legends abound. The 48 km wide ... -
Low frequency variability of the Indian Ocean from TOPEX/POSEIDON sea surface height anomalies
(NIO, Dona Paula, Goa (India), 2000)The sea surface height (SSH) anomalies derived from TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter have been utilized to study the variability of surface circulation in the Indian Ocean during 1993-1999. The Western Bay, southeastern Arabian ... -
Low genetic variation suggest single stock of Kawakawa Euthynnus affinis (Cantor, 1849) along the Indian coast
(CFRI publisher, 2012)Kawakawa Euthynnus affinis is an epipelagic migratory tuna species, widely distributed in the tropical and subtropical waters of the Indo-Pacific region. It constitutes the largest tuna fishery in Indian waters. In present ... -
Low light phytoplankton genera observed in the coastal and estuarine waters of Goa, India
(ALOKI Applied Ecological Research and Forensic Institute Ltd, 2018)This is the first study carried-out to understand the phytoplankton genera in the low light (less than 50 -mol/m2 /s of photosynthetically available radiation) for the estuarine and coastal waters of Goa, India. There were ... -
Low-input Modified Extensive Shrimp Culture System for Penaeus monodon Restrian Vibriosis
(BioPublisher, 2013)It was hypothesized that an outbreak of vibriosis can be restrained in ponds with a low stocking density (~5 post-larvae m<sup>-2</sup>) till harvest. Therefore, during a 135 day production cycle of Penaeus monodon at an ... -
Low-scale foreshore morphodynamic processes in the vicinity of a tropical estuary at Honnavar, central west coast of India
(Coastal Education and Reserch Foundation, 2009)Low-scale foreshore morphodynamic processes in the vicinity of the Sharavati estuary at Honnavar, central west coast of India, are discussed in this paper based on the wave refraction analyses, sediment characteristics, ... -
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 ... -
Luminescent quantum dots: Synthesis, optical properties, bioimaging and toxicity
(Elsevier, 2023)Luminescent nanomaterials such as semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) and quantum dots (QDs) attract much attention to optical detectors, LEDs, photovoltaics, displays, biosensing, and bioimaging. These materials include metal ... -
Lunar, diel and tidal variabilityin penaeid prawn larval abundance in the Mandovi estuary, Goa
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1992)Prawn larvae were studied to determine suitable lunar and tidal phases and time for large scale seed collection for prawn aquaculture. Larvae and postlarvae of 8 commercially important species were observed in the surface ... -
