Observations of long-period waves in the nearshore waters of central west coast of India during the fall inter-monsoon period
(Elsevier, 2017)
The waves measured in the eastern Arabian Sea during the fall inter-monsoon period (October) are examined at 4 locations during 2010–2015. Multi-modal features have been observed in measured wave spectra due to independent ...
Observation of dominance of swells over wind seas in the coastal waters of the Gulf of Mannar, India
(Copernicus Publications for EGU, 2017)
Wind seas typically dominate over swell seas in coastal gulfs. Waves measured at a location having a water depth of 12?m in the near-shore waters of the Gulf of Mannar during a 1-year period (1 May 2015 to 30 April 2016) ...
Variations in return value estimate of ocean surface waves - a study based on measured buoy data and ERA-Interim reanalysis data
(Copernicus Publications for EGU, 2017)
An assessment of extreme wave characteristics during the design of marine facilities not only helps to ensure their safety but also assess the economic aspects. In this study, return levels of significant wave height (Hs) ...
Wave spectral shapes in the coastal waters based on measured data off Karwar on the Western coast of India
(European Geosciences Unio, 2017)
An understanding of the wave spectral shapes is of primary importance for the design of marine facilities. In this paper, the wave spectra collected from January 2011 to December 2015 in the coastal waters of the eastern ...
Textural characteristics and morphosedimentary environment of foreshore zone along Ganpatipule, Maharashtra, India
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)
The cross-shore profile and the textural distribution of foreshore sediments of Ganpatipule beach along Maharashtra coast covering two annual cycles are examined. Ganpatipule beach depicts erosion and accretion of the berm, ...
Longshore sediment transport in the surf zone based on different formulae: A case study along the central west coast of India
(Springer, 2017)
Understanding longshore sediment transport (LST) is a prerequisite for designing an effective coastal zone management strategy. The present study estimates the LST along the central west coast of India based on four bulk ...
