Evidences for Extreme Wave Events in Velanganni Coast, Southeast of India
Published 2013“…The present study focuses on sediment grain size, microfossil content and heavy minerals present in the sediments collected from a trench in the southeast coast of India in order to identify the frequent extreme wave events (e.g. storm surge, cyclone, tsunami, etc.). Two different depositional events were identified at different depths with distinct sedimentological, mineralogical and microfossil characteristics. …”

Coastal multi-hazard vulnerability assessment along the Ganges deltaic coast of Bangladesh - A geospatial approach
Published 2016“…This study attempts to develop a coastal vulnerability index (CVI) by using seven physical parameters namely: (a) geomorphology; (b) coastal slope; (c) shoreline change rate; (d) rate of sea level change; (e) mean tide range; (f) bathymetry; and (g) storm surge height. These variables are considered as relative risk parameters and integrated through geospatial techniques (i.e., remote sensing and GIS), and then ranked to estimate the degree of coastline vulnerability to sea level rise. …”

Numerical modelling of intra-wave sediment transport on sandy beaches using a wave-resolving, non-hydrostatic model
Published 2021“…This research work aims at improving the numerical modelling of the intra-wave sediment transport on sandy beaches, and in turn, of the exchange of sediments between the swash and surf zones under extreme events (e.g., storms, clusters of storms and tsunamis). A non-hydrostatic, wave-resolving model based on the open-source depth-averaged Non-hydrostatic XBeach framework is developed. …”
