Monitoring from space, aerial and in situ platforms in coastal regions will help develop models for interactions between ecological and anthropogenic processes, helping sustainable management of coast...
The Indian coasts hold diverse geomorphological features—mudflats, rocky shores, cliffs, sandy beaches and deltaic reaches that shelter unique ecosystems. However, significant sections of the coastlin...
Integrated Flood Warning System (IFLOWS) is an integrated GIS-based decision support system developed for Chennai and Mumbai that provides flood inundation scenarios and helps state governments to put...
A decrease in monsoon precipitation has been observed from 1951 to 2015, especially in the west coast and central parts of India. Models simulate that the trend is expected to continue till 2050, afte...

Predicting wet or dry spells on a large scale, three to four weeks prior to its onset, is essential for agriculture and hydrology. Improved understanding of ocean and atmospheric interactions and inno...
The southwest monsoon begins its long journey from the high-pressure region of Mascarenes High, veering slowly towards the Indian subcontinent. During their course, they are influenced by a host of oc...
A decrease in monsoon precipitation has been observed from 1951 to 2015, especially in the west coast and central parts of India. Models simulate that the trend is expected to continue till 2050, after which it shall begin to recover.
Every year, India looks expectantly towards the southwest monsoon for its annual water requirements. An array of forecasting systems has been developed overtime by the India Meteorological Department to achieve optimum accuracy in predictions.
Predicting wet or dry spells on a large scale, three to four weeks prior to its onset, is essential for agriculture and hydrology. Improved understanding of ocean and atmospheric interactions and innovation in forecast models in recent years have led to better predictions.
