Freak waves off Ratnagiri, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Freak waves are relatively large and spontaneous ocean surface gravity waves whose heights are larger than the expected maximum wave height for a given sea state Wave data collected off Ratnagiri, along the west coast of ...
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 ...
Variability in tidal harmonics of the coastal and estuarine waters of Goa during winter monsoon and spring inter-monsoon
(Elsevier, 2022)
Harmonic analysis was carried out with simultaneously observed tide elevation in the coastal and estuarine regions of Goa. The tide elevations were consistent along the coastal stretch of 80 km; however, significant ...
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 ...
Waves in Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay around Dhanushkodi, Tamil Nadu, India
(Current Science Association, 2013)
Surface wave characteristics around Dhanushkodi are studied based on the measured data in the Gulf of Mannar and in the Palk Bay. Wave spectra are mainly double-peaked in the Gulf of Mannar and single-peaked in the Palk ...
Evaluating the estuarine tidal discharge through water stage component analysis and in-situ measurement - Case study Mandovi-Zuari estuary of Goa, India
(Elsevier, 2023)
Determining tidal reach and long-term monitoring of tidal discharge are vital in an estuarine system due to their potential use in water resource management and inland navigation. The upstream river discharge contributes ...
Period and length of high surface gravity waves measured in the coastal waters of eastern Arabian Sea and its variations in 10 years
(Elsevier, 2023)
Information on the period and length of waves is required for the planning and design of marine facilities and wave energy converters. In this article, the period and length of the waves measured during the peak monsoon ...
Observations of surface wave fields in the Arabian Sea under tropical cyclone Tauktae
(Elsevier, 2021)
The characteristics of surface wave fields in the eastern Arabian Sea under tropical cyclone Tauktae were investigated using buoy data. On May 16, 2021, the cyclone passed within 96 km of the buoy location, and a maximum ...
