Observational Evidence of Summer Shamal Swells along the West Coast of India
(American Meteorological Society, 2013)
Wave data collected off Ratnagiri, West coast of India, in 2010 and 2011 are used to examine the presence of the summer shamal swells. This study also aims to understand variations in wave characteristics and associated ...
Performance of the ocean state forecast system at Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services
(Current Science Association, 2013)
The reliability of the operational Ocean State Forecast system at the Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS) during tropical cyclones that affect the coastline of India is described in this article. ...
Wave hindcast studies using SWAN nested in WAVEWATCH III - comparison with measured nearshore buoy data off Karwar, eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2016)
Waves in the nearshore waters (~15 m water-depth) of eastern Arabian Sea were simulated using SWAN nested in WAVEWATCH III (WW3) for the year 2014. The sensitivity of the numerical wave model WW3 towards different source ...
Cyclone and monsoonal wave characteristics of northwestern Bay of Bengal: long-term observations and modeling
(Springer, 2016)
Long-term wave data play a crucial role in arriving the wave criteria for ports and harbors and shore protection structures. Seasonal and annual wave characteristics are studied based on wave data collected for the year ...
Wave power potential at a few shallow-water locations around Indian coast
(Current Science Association, 2013)
Variations in nearshore wave power at four shallow water locations along the east and west coast of India are examined based on the measured wave data for one-year period. The study shows that along the west coast of India, ...
Influence of winds on temporally varying short and long period gravity waves in the near shore regions of the eastern Arabian Sea
(European Geosciences Union, 2013)
Wave data collected off Ratnagiri, west coast of India, during 1 May 2010 to 30 April 2012 are used in this study. Seasonal and annual variations in wave data controlled by the local wind system such as sea breeze and land ...
Freak waves off Ratnagiri, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Freak waves are relatively large and spontaneous ocean surface gravity waves whose heights are larger than the expected maximum wave height for a given sea state Wave data collected off Ratnagiri, along the west coast of ...
Waves off Puducherry, Bay of Bengal, during cyclone THANE
(Springer, 2013)
We studied the wave characteristics during the very severe cyclonic storm THANE which crossed the east coast of India between Puducherry and Cuddalore based on waves measured at a location in Bay of Bengal at 14 m water ...
Waves off Gopalpur, northern Bay of Bengal during cyclone Phailin.
(European Geosciences Union, 2014)
The wave statistical parameters during Cyclone Phailin which crossed the northern Bay of Bengal are described based on the Directional Waverider buoy-measured wave data from 8 to 13 October 2013. On 12 October 2013, the ...
Monsoon and cyclone induced wave climate over the near shore waters off Puduchery, south western Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2013)
Seasonal and annual variations in wave characteristics are studied based on measurements during 2009–2011 using wave rider buoy. Presence of swells generated by the south Indian Ocean cyclones are found over the south ...
