Evaluation of wave growth and bottom friction parameterization schemes in the SWAN based on wave modelling for the central west coast of India
(Elsevier, 2021)
In the present study, SWAN wave model is nested with Wavewatch 3 to reproduce waves off the central west coast of India using ERA-5 winds. The sensitivity of SWAN wave model was tested with different wave growth and bottom ...
On the generation and propagation of Makran swells in the Arabian Sea
(2020)
Persistent and periodic northerly low-level jets have been identified in the South Asian mid?latitudes and subtropics, which are modified by the presence of Makran mountain ranges adjacent to the central south coast of ...
Climatology and trends of the Indian Ocean surface waves based on 39-year long ERA5 reanalysis data
(2020)
In this study, the wind and the surface waves in the Indian Ocean (IO) during 1979-2017 are studied based on the ECMWF ERA5 Reanalysis data. Long?term statistical analysis of extreme waves is carried out based on Generalized ...
Tidal characteristics in the Gulf of Khambhat, northern Arabian Sea - based on observation and global tidal model data
(Elsevier, 2020)
Summary Tidal characteristics of the Gulf of Khambhat are described based on measured and modelled sea-level data. Data were recorded at three locations inside and two locations outside the Gulf with record lengths of 6-12 ...
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 ...
Characteristics of individual surface waves measured by moored buoys in the coastal waters of the eastern Arabian Sea
(Elsevier, 2022)
In this study, the characteristics of the individual surface waves in the eastern Arabian Sea over one year are examined based on the measured time-series data using Waverider buoys at four locations covering ~500 km of ...
Hilbert-Huang transform analysis of surface wavefield under tropical cyclone Hudhud
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
The characteristics of an evolving ocean surface wavefield under tropical cyclone Hudhud that took place in October 2014 are investigated. The Hilbert-Huang transformation (HHT) is used for the spectral analysis of the ...
Climatology of wave period in the Arabian Sea and its variability during the recent 40 years
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Information on wave period is required for designing marine facilities. Characteristics of peak period (Tp) can reveal swell or wind-sea predominance at a location. Mean wave period (Tm) and Tp from reanalysis data spanning ...
Occurrence of Gravity and Infra Gravity Waves in the Nearshore Region at Ratnagiri, West Coast of India
(Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2020)
This study analyses the sea level data measured simultaneously using S4DW and directional Wave Rider Buoy (WRB) off Ratnagiri, eastern Arabian Sea, located along the west coast of the Indian sub-continent. The objective ...
Nearshore Waves and Littoral Drift Along a Micro-Tidal Wave-Dominated Coast Having Comparable Wind-Sea and Swell Energy
(2020)
The nearshore wave characteristics and variations in littoral drift (longshore sediment transport; LST) are estimated based on different approaches for four years along the Vengurla coast, with comparable wind-sea and swell ...
