Technologies for Ocean Exploration Sponsored by Ministry of Earth Sciences, Govt. of India Jointly organised by Ocean Society of India & National Institute of Ocean Technology OSICON-11 OSICON 11 is the second national conference of Ocean Society of India (OSI) to be held during 13-15, July 2011 at National Institute of Ocean Technology (NIOT). OSI always believes in building partnerships and this time we had the privilege of having NIOT as our partner. OSICON 11 is thus jointly conducted by OSI and NIOT. The focal theme chosen for this conference is “Technologies for Ocean Exploration” and hence NIOT is the right choice for conducting this conference, since it is the premier institute of ocean technology in our country. You might remember that we conducted our previous conference OSICON 09 at Visakhapatnam in March 2009 with partnership of Andhra University. Since the inception of Ocean Society of India (OSI) in 2006, we have been receiving tremendous support and cooperation in furthering the R&D work in marine sciences, engineering and technology. Over these years, OSI built strong bonding with several pioneering institutions like NIO, NPOL(and sister labs of DRDO), NIOT, SAC, INCOIS, NRSC, IOM, Indian Navy, IIT-Kharagpur, IIT-Madras, IIT-Delhi, IISc, Cochin University of Science & Technology, Goa University, Jadavpur University, Anna University and Andhra University. OSI has its life members spread across length and breadth of our country from all of the institutions mentioned above. One of the greatest strengths of OSI is its young research scholars and students who are willing to take part in our activities. We look forward to build more partnerships in future also. A broad range of topics of current interest is covered for OSICON 11. The various themes on which papers will be presented are Autonomous Underwater Vehicles, Remotely Operated Vehicles, Ocean Engineering, Safety & Reliability, Sonar Technologies, Ocean Observation Systems, Ocean Remote Sensing & Applications, Ocean State Forecasting (Ocean Modeling), Ocean Dynamics, Coastal Processes & Coastal Zone Management, Marine Ecosystems, Bio-geochemistry of Oceans and Atmosphere & Oceans. A total of one hundred and seventeen (117) papers have finally been selected for the conference after peer reviewing all the abstracts received. We have arranged the review of abstracts by inviting the technical subject experts to a common venue and completed the review process. We are extremely grateful to all the technical committee members and other subject experts who assisted for the review of abstracts. Especially the services rendered by Dr K Ravindran, Dr MR Santha Devi, Dr KV Sanil Kumar, Dr GVM Gupta, Dr KK Balachandran, and Shri OR Nanda Gopan are very much appreciated. Dr K Rajith and Shri PSV Jagadeesh have contributed quite significantly in organising abstracts and for bringing out the compendium of abstracts of OSICON 11. As the time available for oral presentations is limited (even with parallel sessions) iii we encouraged all the paper presenters to prepare the posters also, in addition to oral presentations, for display at the conference venue. It gives an opportunity to delegates in extending their discussions even after completion of their oral presentations. Apart from these papers there are six invited talks for this conference by eminent experts in key areas of marine science, engineering and systems. Dr Shailesh Nayak, Secretary, Ministry of Earth Sciences has given lot of encouragement and guidance in organising this conference. Both the organisations, OSI and NIOT, are grateful to him for all the help rendered in organising OSICON 11. Deliberations of this conference will certainly help understanding of our oceans better and lead to state-of-the-art ocean technologies for future. We thank all the delegates of this conference for their continued interest and enthusiasm for our OSICON series.
