Nearshore waves and longshore sediment transport along Rameshwaram Island off the east coast of India
(SNAK, 2015)
Wave-induced Longshore Sediment Transport (LST) play an important role in the dynamics of the Dhanushkodi sandspit located southeast of Rameshwaram. The LST along the Dhanushkodi coast is studied based on data collected ...
Characteristics of long-period swells measured in the near shore regions of eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2016)
Measured wave data covering two years simultaneously at 3 locations along the eastern Arabian Sea reveals the presence of long-period (peak wave period > 18 s) low-amplitude waves (significant wave height < 1 m) and the ...
Spectral wave climatology off Ratnagiri, northeast Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2016)
Wave spectra of the measured data at 13 m water depth off Ratnagiri using the Datawell Directional waverider buoy from March 2010 to November 2014 are used to study the daily, monthly, seasonal and annual variations in the ...
Directional characteristics of shallow water waves along southwestern Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2016)
The aim of the present research is to investigate the directional characteristics of waves along the southwestern Bay of Bengal based on the measured data during 2010 at 14 m water depth. Diurnal, monthly and annual variation ...
Trends in surface wind speed and significant wave height as revealed by ERA-Interim wind wave hindcast in the Central Bay of Bengal
(Royal Meteorological Society, 2015)
The Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal (BoB) regions are special interested sea areas in the Northern Hemisphere with large seasonal variability. This study focused on the long-term wind and wave in the central BoB from 1979 ...
Sea state observation in island-sheltered nearshore zone based on in situ intermediate-water wave measurements and NCEP/CFSR wind data
(Springer, 2015)
In this study, wind-seas, swells, and the coastal wind pattern are examined to interpret the temporal diversity of the sea state in the island-sheltered nearshore zone off Karwar on the west coast of India. The sea state ...
Performance of ERA-Interim wave data in the nearshore waters around India
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)
Bulk wave parameters, such as wave height and wave period, are required for engineering and environmental applications. In this study, measured wave data from six shallow-water locations in the data-sparse north Indian ...
Spatial and temporal variations of wave height in shelf seas around India
(Springer, 2015)
The spatial and temporal variations of wave height in shelf seas around Indian mainland are examined based on the ERA-Interim dataset produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. The study shows that ...
Changes in nearshore waves during the active sea/land breeze period off Vengurla, central west coast of India
(Copernicus Publications, 2016)
A unique feature observed in the tropical and subtropical coastal area is the diurnal sea-breeze/land-breeze cycle. We examined the nearshore waves at 5 and 15 m water depth during the active sea/land breeze period ...
