Coastal processes along north Kakinada Coast, Andhra Pradesh based on short-term study
(National Institute of Oceanography, India, 2004)
Kakinada is situated in the central part of the Andhra Pradesh State on the east coast of India. To cater to recreational activities of the people in this coastal town, the Andhra Pradesh State Government has taken up an ...
Directional spread parameter at intermediate water depth
(Pergamon, 2000)
The characteristics of directional spread parameters at intermediate water depth are investigated based on a cosine power '2s' directional spreading model. This is based on wave measurements carried out using a Datawell ...
Longshore currents and sediment trnsport along Kannirajapuram Coast, Tamilnadu, India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2000)
The objective of the study was to estimate longshore current and sediment transport from measured wave data and from the observations on the littoral environment. A directional wave rider buoy was deployed at 12m water ...
Variations in swells along Eastern Arabian Sea during the summer monsoon
(Scientific Research, 2012)
A study was carried out to find the variation in wave characteristics along the eastern Arabian Sea and the influence of swells in the nearshore waves at 3 locations during summer monsoon in 2010. Percentage of swells in ...
Multipeakedness and groupiness of shallow water waves along Indian coast
(Coastal Education and Reserch Foundation, 2003)
Based on one year wave data collected at 4 locations along the Indian coast, the frequency of occurrence of double-peaked spectra was estimated. It was found that 40% of the data analysed was single-peaked. The double ...
Waves and currents in tide-dominated location off Dahej, Gulf of Khambhat, India
(Taylor & Francis, 2010)
Based on measurements of waves, currents, and tides off Dahej in the Gulf of Khambhat, hydrodynamics are studied. Estimated tidal constituents show that primary lunar semidiurnal constituent M2 was the strongest constituent, ...
Wave characteristics off Visakhapatnam coast during a cyclone
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2004)
Waves were measured using a directional waverider buoy off Visakhapatnam, east coast of India during the passage of a cyclone in November 1998. The maximum wave height observed during the passage was 5.74 m, whereas this ...
Characteristics of waves off Goa, west coast of India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2000)
Directional wave measurements were carried out using Datawell directional waverider buoy off Goa along west coast of India during the south west monsoon period in 1996 and the results are presented. Theoretical joint ...
Estimation of wind speed and wave height during cyclones
(Elsevier, 2003)
Wave and wind characteristics based on the cyclones, in the vicinity of the Nagapattinam coastline (east coast of India) were estimated. In all, 11 cyclones have crossed near the study region during 1960-1996. For the four ...
Nearshore processes along Tikkavanipalem Beach, Visakhapatnam, India
(Coastal Research Foundation, 2001)
Directional wave data collected at 12 m water depth, at 1 km distance off Tikkavanipalem, Andhra Pradesh, India from December 1997 to November 1998, was used to estimate the longshore currents and longshore sediment transport ...
