主 题:Coastal zone india habitats processes water quality living resources coastal management
摘 要:The coastal zone is a region where land,ocean and atmosphere interact and hence it is dynamic in *** has a long coastline which was not adequately monitored until the advent of the satellite remote sensing era in the *** has a very robust remote sensing program that the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite(IRS)series of satellites were effectively used to monitor coastal habitats,landforms,shoreline,water quality,etc.,and changes were identified during the last 40 *** classification system for coastal habitats and the classification and geometric accuracies of products were *** information for mangroves communities and characteristics of coral reefs were *** high and low tide lines were delineated seamlessly for the entire coastline using satellite *** these data were organized in a GIS and the coastal database for the entire country was *** of various hazards on such as cyclones,tsunami and sea level changes on coastal habitats were *** on topography,shoreline changes and tides,coastal multi-hazard vulnerability maps were characterized by employing the elevation data derived from satellite data and were prepared for the coastline of *** information on ocean color and sea surface temperature was used to generate potential fishery advisories,which are provided daily to *** coastal database was utilized effectively to identify coastal regulation zones,marine protected areas,vulnerable zones,*** services for tsunami,fishery and coral reef bleaching were generated for societal *** is planned to develop models for the coastal zone,so that impeding dangers and likely changes in the coastal zone can be predicted and suitable actions can be *** is necessary to integrate socio-economic data with the knowledge database of coastal zone to understand the impact of anthropogenic activities and the changing climate on the coastal zone.
