Abstract

Indian ship Gaveshini cruised through Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal with a wave recorder fitted in it during May to August 1979 and collected wave data. The analysis of the processed wave data shows high mean value for the wave height with low standard deviation over the Arabian Sea during monsoon while reverse is the case over the Bay of Bengal. The peak in wave spectra shifts from about 4.5 sec before monsoon to 6 sec with. the arrival of monsoon over Arabian Sea. The spectrum of waves over the Bay is comparatively narrower.
