Tidal Hydrodynamics along Gulf of Khambhat, West Coast of India

In coastal hydrodynamics, tides play a major role and it is important to understand the complexity of their characteristics along the difficult coastal areas like creeks, estuaries, bays and gulfs for any kind of engineering activities like harbor, jetty, dams and protection measures. In this study, six tidal constituents (K1, M2, N2, O1, P1 and S2) variations along the Gulf of Khambhat,west co…
