Wind-driven coastal upwelling along the western boundary of the Bay of Bengal during the southwest monsoon
(Pergamon, 1991)
A hydrographic survey during the southwest monsoon (July-August 1989) showed that along most of the western boundary of the Bay of Bengal, in an approximately 40 km wide band, isopycnals from depths up to about 70 m surfaced ...
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 ...
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 ...
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. ...
The coastal current off western India during the northeast monsoon
(Pergamon, 1991)
Hydrographic data collected during December 1987 and January 1988 are used to describe the poleward coastal current along the west coast of India that flows against weak winds during the northeast monsoon. Near the southern ...
Propagation of tides in the Mandovi-Zuari estuarine network
(Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore, India, 1995)
Located in Goa on the west coast of India and joining the Arabian Sea, the Mandovi and the Zuari are two estuaries, each about 50 km long, connected by a narrow canal. A number of small rivers join the two estuaries, forming ...
Hydrography and circulation in the western Bay of Bengal during the northeast monsoon
(American Geophysical Union, 1996)
The Bay of Bengal, a semienclosed tropical basin that comes under the influence of monsoonal wind and freshwater influx, is distinguished by a strongly stratified surface layer and a seasonally reversing circulation. We ...
Hydrography and circulation off the west coast of India during the southwest monsoon 1987
(Yale University, 1990)
