Apportionment of sources affecting water quality: Case study of Kandla Creek, Gulf of Katchchh
(Taylor & Francis, 2009)
This study examines a large dataset collected over various seasons of the year in Kandla Creek, Gulf of Katchchh, India, to identify and assess the contributions of the sources affecting the water quality. Principal ...
Factors controlling physico-chemical characteristics in the coastal waters off Mangalore - A multivariate approach
(Elsevier, 2009)
Water quality parameters (temperature, pH, salinity, DO, BOD, suspended solids, nutrients, PHc, phenols, trace metals-Pb, Cd and Hg, chlorophyll-a (chl-a) and phaeopigments) and the sediment quality parameters (total ...
Amplified Msf tides at Kochi backwaters on the southwest coast of India
(Current Science Association, 2009)
Characteristics of tides at eight stations in Kochi backwaters (KB) located on the southwest coast of India are analysed. The Msf tidal constituents at several locations are found to be considerably larger than those ...
A one year comparison of radar and pressure tide gauge at Goa, west coast of India
(CUSAT, 2009)
At many locations absolute pressure gauges are used to obtain sea level data. Therefore, knowledge of the other physical processes which effect the sea level measurements at the coast is very important to insert the required ...
The detection of annual hypoxia in a low latitude freshwater reservoir in Kerala, India, using the small AUV Maya
(Marine Technology Society, 2009)
The Idukki Reservoir at an altitude of 748 m covering an area of 53 km sup(2) is surrounded by tropical forests in the Western Ghats in the southwestern Indian state of Kerala. We used the small autonomous underwater vehicle ...
Observed thermohaline structure and cooling of Kochi backwaters and adjoining southeastern Arabian Sea
(Current Science Association, 2009)
Thermohaline structure of Kochi backwaters under fair and rough weather conditions has been examined along with thermal structure of two open-ocean islands in the adjoining southeastern Arabian Sea (Kavaratti and Andrott ...
Seasonal anoxia over the western Indian continental shelf
(American Geophysical Union, 2009)
The eastern Arabian Sea contains the only eastern-boundary-type upwelling environment in the entire Indian Ocean, albeit on a seasonal basis. During the southwest monsoon, when the surface current flows equatorward, upwelling ...
Benthic fluxes in a tropical estuary and their role in the ecosystem
(Elsevier, 2009)
In-situ measurements of benthic fluxes of oxygen and nutrients were made in the subtidal region of the Mandovi estuary during premonsoon and monsoon seasons to understand the role of sediment-water exchange processes in ...
