Barotropic tidal model for the Bombay High, Gulf of Khambhat and surrounding areas
(Naval Physical and Oceanographic Laboratory, Thrikkakara, Kochi, India, 1998)
A barotropic model is developed for the shelf region off the central west coast of India, which includes the regions of Bombay High and Gulf of Khambhat, in order to simulate tides and tidal currents in the region. The ...
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 ...
The western boundary current of the seasonal subtropical gyre in the Bay of Bengal
(American Geophysical Union, 1993)
Hydrographic data collected during March-April 1991 show the presence of a poleward current along the western boundary of the Bay of Bengal of about 10 degrees N carrying warmer waters of southern origin. The inshore side ...
On the role of geometry of cross-section in generating flood-dominance in shallow estuaries
(Academic Press, 1992)
Shallow estuaries often show tidal asymmetry of flood-dominance in which duration of the flood is shorter and its peak discharge larger than the corresponding values during ebb. A simple analytic model for this phenomenon ...
Dynamics of circulation of the waters around India
(Indian National Science Academy, New Delhi (India), 1999)
During the last decade the understanding of dynamics of the large-scale seasonal coastal currents around India has markedly improved. However, a number of major issues concerning circulation on the shelf and in the estuaries ...
Tidal propagation in the Gulf of Khambhat, Bombay High, and surrounding areas
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, India, 1999)
The continental shelf on the west coast of India is widest off Bombay and leads into a strongly converging channel, the Gulf of Khambhat. Tides in the Gulf are among the largest on the coast. Data on amplitude and phase ...
Salinity extrema in the Arabian Sea
(University of Hamburg, Germany, 1993)
Levitus (1982) climatology has been used to identify four extrema, three maxima and one minimum, in the vertical salinity profiles in the Arabian Sea. Their geographical distribution, depths, theta-S characteristics, and ...
Propagation of tides in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine network
(ICMAM-PD, Chennai (India), 1999)
The propagation of tides in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine network was studied based on the hydrographic observations; mathematical modelling; and chemistry of estuaries. The data was collected during the dry and wet season. ...
Biological control of surface temperature in the Arabian Sea
(Macmillan, 1991)
Diurnal and semi-diurnal tidal currents in the deep mid-Arabian sea
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 1992)
Current meter records from two depths, approximately 1000 m, at three mooring in the deep mid-Arabian Sea were used to study tidal components. Tidal ellipses for the semi-diurnal (M2, S2 and K2) and the diurnal (K1 and P1) ...
