Classification of tidal inlets along the Central east coast of India
(Elsevier, 2015)
Coastal inlets are the openings along the coastline that provide a linkage between the open ocean and the hinterland water bodies. These coastal inlets are varied in nature depending on many influencing parameters such as ...
Response of sheltered and built-up coasts in the wake of natural hazards: The aftermath of the December 2004 Tsunami, Tamil Nadu, India
(Springer, 2016)
The geomorphology and the disposition of natural features and type of coast are major factors that control wave heights and govern consequent inundation distances. The connection between tsunami run-up heights and inundation ...
Storm and tsunami induced sediment transport and morphology changes in vicinity of tidal inlets
(Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, 2014)
This study comprises of numerical modelling studies on the morphology changes in the vicinity of tidal inlets. Two real case scenarios comprising of a very severe cyclonic storm and the mega Indian Ocean tsunami were ...
Classification of tidal inlets along the central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2015)
Tidal inlets along the Maharashtra coast on the central west coast of India were classified according to three methods available in the literature. Two classification methods viz., (i) Hydrodynamic classification (Hayes, ...
Surfzone wave characteristics during flood tide on the central west coast of India
(World Scientific Publishing, 2015)
Surfzone wave characteristics, measured using a wave and tide gauge (WTG) during a flood tide, were studied at three different beaches having different nearshore slopes. The spectral wave characteristics viz., wave-height ...
Seasonal dynamics of adjoining tidal coastal inlet on east coast of India measurements and modelling
(IAHR-AIRH, 2014)
The opening and closure of coastal tidal inlets play a major role in regulating the water and sediment exchange between the river and ocean as well as in the interruption of the longshore sediment transport. The present ...
Assessment of existing sediment transport models for sand barrier dynamics under wave and currents
(IAHR-AIRH, 2014)
The paper summarizes morphology changes over rippled sand barriers under wave and wave combined current of 27 laboratorial experiments. Data of 4 wave conditions (H=10cm, T=1s; H=12cm, T=1s; H=12cm, T=1.5s; H=14cm, T=1.5s) ...
Detection of decadal shoreline changes along Dhamara and Maipura coast, Odisha, India
(IAHR-AIRH, 2014)
Coastal erosion is one of the major problems of the coastal zone. The erosion is triggered by various reasons such as high wave energy, reduction of sediments, natural disasters and climate change etc. In the era of ...
Decadal shoreline assessment using remote sensing along the central Odisha coast, India
(Springer, 2015)
One of the major requirements of planning coastal protection works is to understand the processes of erosion, deposition, sediment transport, flooding and sea level changes which continuously alter the shoreline. Significant ...
