Influence of Dam-Controlled River Discharge and Tides on Salinity Intrusion in the Godavari Estuary, East Coast of India
Description: The Godavari is an important tropical monsoonal river located along the east coast of India. The Gautami-Godavari is one of the two major estuarine branches of the Godavari River bifurcated by a low dam at Dowlaiswaram. This study focused primarily on the dam-controlled freshwater fluxes using extensive field data on hydrodynamics and numerical modeling of tidal currents.
