    • 2-D model for pollutant dispersion at the coastal outfall off Paradip 

      Suryanarayana, A.; Babu, M.T.; Vethamony, P.; Gouveia, A.D. (Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research, Kalpakkam, India, 1999)
      Simulation of dispersion of the effluent discharge has been carried out using 2-D Model to verify the advection and diffusion of the pollutant patch of the proposed effluent disposal off Paradip, Orissa, India. The simulation ...
    • A case study on the impact of industrial effluent disposal on the fishery of Amba River Estuary, Maharashtra 

      Gajbhiye, S.N.; Mehta, P.; Mustafa, S.; Nair, V.R. (Indian Fisheries Association, 1995)
      The impact of waste discharge on fishery resources is a matter of great concern. The accepted norm in all environmental impact assessment studies is to avoid areas of high fishery potential while locating a marine outfall. ...
    • Brackishwater shrimp farming: Possible impacts on estuarine ecosystem 

      Achuthankutty, C.T.; Sreepada, R.A. (University of Kerala, Kerala (India), 1998)
      Aquaculture has been widely accepted as a practice that will supplement the capture fishery production, besides generating various types of job opportunities for the rural population. Coastal aquaculture has been given ...
    • Coastal circulation off Bombay in relation to waste water disposal 

      Josanto, V.; Sarma, R.V. (Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1985)
      Flow patterns in the coastal waters of Bombay were studied using recording current meters, direct reading current meters, floats and dye in relation to the proposed waste water disposal project of the Municipal Corporation ...
    • Diffusion characteristics of the Kakinada Bay for effluent assessment 

      Unnikrishnan, A.S.; Asthana, V. (Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, 1989)
      The present study reports the determination of diffusion characteristics of the Kakinada Bay to choose a suitable marine outfall location for industrial discharge of effluents from a proposed fertilizer plant. The study ...
    • Exploration of the continental margins of India 

      Siddiquie, H.N.; Hashimi, N.H.; Vora, K.H.; Pathak, M.C. (International Hydrographic Bureau, 1987)
      In mid 1970's the National Institute of Oceanography, Goa, India prepared a plan for systematic regional, geological and geophysical surveys of the continental margins of India. This involved over 75,000 km of underway ...
    • Oceanographic studies off Beypore Port, west coast of India to locate a dredge dumping site 

      DineshKumar, P.K.; Vethamony, P.; Babu, M.T.; Srinivas, K.; Thottam, T.J. (Springer, 2004)
      This study presents the salient results of the oceanographic investigations carried out along the west coast of India to locate a dumping site for the dredged material generated from the capital dredging of the proposed ...
    • Physical oceanographic investigation procedure for a sea - Outfall project 

      DineshKumar, P.K.; Sarma, R.V. (The Institution of Engineers, India, 1990)
      Coastal areas of the oceans have long been used for the disposal of domestic and industrial effluents. With growing interest in environmental problems came the realization that there is a limit to assimilate all pollutants. ...
    • Pollution of coastal seas 

      Varkey, M.J. (Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, India, 1999)
      Pollution of various environments is a consequence of population growth and industrialisation. Coastal seas form part of marine environment and are very rich in minerals, crude oil fishes etc. They are also being used for ...
    • Post depositional memory record of mercury in sediment near effluent disposal site of a chlor-alkali plant in Thane Creek-Mumbai Harbour, India
