Short-term observation of beach dynamics using cross-shore profiles and foreshore sediment
(Elsevier, 2012)
Cross-shore beach profiles and textural characteristics of foreshore sediment were analyzed for understanding an annual cycle of intertidal beach dynamics at Devbag, an Island sheltered estuarine coast. Cross-shore transects ...
Benthic polychaetes in the Ratnagiri bay, India: Influence of anthropogenic factors
(Triveni Enterprises, 2011)
Study of changes in macrobenthic community structure is an intrinsic part of many environmental monitoring programmes. Hence, it is pivotal to distinguish the effects of natural and anthropogenic factors on these sensitive ...
Impact of bottom trawling on sediment characteristics - A study along inshore waters off Veraval coast, India
(Springer, 2010)
The present communication is a study on the impact of bottom trawling on the sediment characteristics along Veraval coast, which is the largest trawler port of India. Experimental bottom trawling was conducted from MFV ...
Effect of freshwater influx on phytoplankton in the Mandovi estuary (Goa, India) during monsoon season: Chemotaxonomy
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2013)
The Mandovi estuary is a prominent water body that runs along the west coast of India. It forms an estuarine network with the adjacent Zuari estuary, connected via the Cumbharjua canal. The physico-chemical conditions seen ...
Evaluation of significant sources influencing the variation of water quality of Kandla creek, Gulf of Katchchh, using PCA
(Springer, 2010)
To evaluate the significant sources contributing to water quality parameters, we used principal component analysis (PCA) for the interpretation of a large complex data matrix obtained from the Kandla creek environmental ...
Suspended sediment dynamics on a seasonal scale in the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2011)
Suspended particulate matter (SPM) collected at regular stations from the Mandovi and Zuari estuaries indicates that the peaks of high SPM coincide with peaks of high rainfall and low salinity and also with peaks of ...
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 ...
Occurrence and seasonal variation in distribution of fecal indicator bacteria in Tapi estuary along the West coast of India.
(NISCAIR, 2014)
Distribution and occurrence of fecal indicator bacterial in nine different locations along the inner to coastal areas of Tapi estuary during three different seasons like, post-monsoon, pre-monsoon and monsoon were analyzed ...
Seasonality and variability of coccolithophore fluxes in response to diverse oceanographic regimes in the Bay of Bengal: Sediment trap results
(Elsevier, 2013)
A study on coccolithophores from the sediment trap samples, collected over a period of one year (January 1992–December 1992) from three trap locations in the Bay of Bengal (BOB) were used to understand their production and ...
Ocean currents structuring the mesozooplankton in the Gulf of Mannar and the Palk Bay, southeast coast of India
(Elsevier, 2013)
We hypothesis perceptible physical barriers that exist between the deep Gulf of Mannar and shallow Palk Bay located between India and Sri Lanka, and seasonally reversing surface circulation patterns in the region have a ...
