Simulation of Trajectories of Tar Ball Transport to the Goa Coast
(Springer, 2013)
Arrival of tar balls to the Goa coast during pre- and southwest monsoon seasons has been a regular phenomenon in the past few years. In one such event, we observed tar ball deposits along the Goa coast during August 2010, ...
Remotely sensed chlorophyll: A putative trophic link for explaining variability in Indian oil sardine stocks
(Coastal Education & Research Foundation, 2012)
The landing of Indian oil sardines, Sardinella longiceps Valenciennes, 1847, along the southwest coast of India is highly variable. A few physical parameters and processes correlated with sardine landing could not establish ...
Fish larval transport in a macro-tidal regime: Gulf of Kachchh, west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2011)
This study combines observational data with a two-dimensional numerical model results to determine the fate of fish eggs released in the Gulf of Kachchh (GoK), a semi enclosed basin on the west coast of India. Fish eggs ...
Wave energy dissipation due to mudbanks formed off southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)
Mudbanks (MBs) are a unique natural phenomenon, and form along the southwest coast of India during the southwest monsoon. They are characterized by a calm-water region, bordered by a rough sea. In order to quantify the ...
What drives nearshore sediment transport controls on the depletion of beach placers at Manavalakurichi, Southwest Coast of India?.
(Taylor and Francis, 2014)
An in-depth analysis has been made to simulate hydrodynamic scenarios for understanding the nearshore sediment transport controls of placer mineral depletion at Manavalakurichi, India. From the analyses of topographic ...
Sea level trend and variability in the Singapore Strait
(European Geosciences Union, 2013)
Sea level in the Singapore Strait (SS) exhibits response to various scale phenomena, from local to global. Longest tide gauge records in SS are analysed to derive local sea level trend and annual, inter-annual and multi-decadal ...
Suspended matter and fluid mud off Alleppey, southwest coast of India
(Elsevier, 2017)
Time series measurements on suspended particulate matter (SPM) were made at one non-mud bank (M1) and two mud bank stations (M2 and M3) off Alleppey, south west coast of India. The mean SPM was low in surface (6.2 mg/l) ...
Residence time of pollutants discharged in the Gulf of Kachchh, northwestern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2012)
A 2D Hydrodynamic-Particle Analysis model was applied to the Gulf of Kachchh (GoK) to estimate the residence time of pollutants. The tidal currents in the Gulf have a strong E-W component, which prevents the material in ...
Coastal erosion triggered by a shipwreck along the coast of Goa, India
(Current Science Association, 2013)
Temporal satellite imageries (1999, 2001, 2003, 2006, 2008 and 2011), wave model (DHI) results and field measurements have been used to evaluate whether the grounded ship MV River Princess played a role in triggering erosion ...
Storm surges in the Singapore Strait due to winds in the South China Sea
(Springer, 2013)
Among the semi-enclosed basins of the world ocean, the South China Sea (SCS) is unique in its configuration as it lies under the main southwest-northeast pathway of the seasonal monsoons. The northeast (NE) monsoon ...
