Siltation at a capital dredged site in Cochin harbour, SW coast of India

摘要: A capital dredging site at Cochin harbour was closely monitored for topographic variability and the role of natural processes in reprieving scenario. The textural characteristics points out abundance silt clay (76-95%) sparingly sand; on conduct dredging, prominence sand is noteworthy. bathymetric contours revealed periodic changes resultant sedimentation leading to gradual fill up dredged sites. amount performed reclaim adjacent land quantified using a computer aided analysis.
