Research Vessels and Moored Platforms in India Research Vessels and Moored Platforms in India Presentation : Arjun K sabu What is a research vessel in oceanography ? Research vessels carry out research on the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of water, the atmosphere, and climate, and to these ends carry equipment for collecting water samples from a range of depths, including the deep seas, as well as equipment for the hydrographic sounding of the seabed, along with numerous other environmental sensors. These vessels often also carry scientific divers and unmanned underwater vehicles. Types of Vessels Hydrographic Vessels Oceanographic Research Vessels (ORV) Polar Research Vessels (PRV) Fishery Research Vessels (FORV) Navel/Defense Research Vessels Coastal Research Vessels (CRV) Research vessels in India RV Gaveshani ( 1975 - 1995 ) Gaveshani (meaning: Researcher), was NIO's first research vessel acquired in December 1975. In her 19 years of service (until 1994), she completed 246 cruises. She accidentally caught fire on 26 August 1994 during refit and modernisation. She was then declared unserviceable in December, 1995. Gaveshani enabled the Institute to Her participation in Monsoon experiments successfully carry out extensive for collection of oceanographic and surveys for offshore oil fields, mineral meteorological data earned her a Certificate deposits, monitoring oil pollution and of Appreciation from IMD developmental activities of the visited Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Mauritius and continental margins.

It is also equipped with VHF sets, marine radio and auto telephone exchange. Moored Platforms in India What is a mooring ? Moorings are structures that allow water scientists to position instruments, collect samples, and take long-term measurements in waterbodies. A mooring typically consists of a flexible cable that is tethered to the ocean floor by a weight or anchor and suspended from the sea surface by a buoy. A platform has a flat workspace for instruments and people, and can be free-floating, moored to the seafloor, or rigidly fixed in place. Water scientists, including physical and chemical oceanographers, marine biologists and geologists, meteorologists , and lake scientists called limnologists collect many types of data from instruments installed on moorings Single Point Mooring (SPM) Single point mooring (SPM) serves as a link between the shore-facilities and the tankers for loading or off-loading liquid and gas cargo Some of the major benefits of using SPM are: Ability to handle extra large vessels Doesn’t require ships to come to the port and thus save fuel and time Ships with high drafts can be moored easily Large quality of cargo can be easily handled Some SPM’S in India: Borl SPM1 Essar SPM1 HPCL - MITTAL SPM IOCL PARADIP SPM II IOCL PARADIP SPM III Reliance SPM 3 Reliance SPM 4 Reliance SPM 5 Moorings deployed by INCOIS(Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services) Surface Mooring Implementation of moored-buoy array for the Indian Ocean in support of climate studies. The focus is on the open ocean north of 30° S. Special efforts will be needed to address western and eastern boundary currents, the Indonesian Throughflow and coastal dynamics. The array will focus on those aspects of ocean dynamics, ocean- atmosphere interaction and climate variation that require high temporal resolution, multi-variate time-series, which moored measurements are uniquely suited to address The array will be long-term and sustained Real-time data transmission will be a high priority in order to support operational climate analyses and forecasts Data will be freely and openly exchanged via the GTS and the WWW The flux reference moorings located in several key climatologically distinct regions, including: Bay of Bengal . Arabian Sea Equator Region of subduction in the southeastern basin (see the CEC in section 6) (25°S, 97°E) The ridge in the thermocline near 8°S, where ocean dynamics affect SST Region of cyclone formation east of Madagascar Region of maximum rainfall south of the equator near 95°E.

It all started with Dr. Vikram Sarabhai and a few spirited industrialists realising that agriculture, education, health, transportation, population control, energy and public administration were vital elements in a growing society, and that it was necessary to efficiently manage these industries. The result was the creation of the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad in 1961 as an autonomous body with the active collaboration of the Government of India, Government of Gujarat and the industrial sectors. It was evident that to have a vision was not enough. Effective governance and quality education were seen as critical aspects. From the very start, the founders introduced the concept of faculty governance: all members of the faculty play an important role in administering the diverse academic and non-academic activities of the Institute. The empowerment of the faculty has been the propelling force behind the high quality of learning experience at IIMA. The Institute had initial collaboration with Harvard Business School. This collaboration greatly influenced the Institute's approach to education. Gradually, it emerged as a confluence of the best of Eastern and Western values. 2 From the Director's Desk Dear Recruiter, It gives me immense pleasure and pride to introduce the Tenth batch of Armed Forces Programme (AFP) participants who are undergoing six month residential course in Business Management at IIM Ahmedabad.

The Indian Ocean consists of the most important trade routes of the world. The Indian Ocean provides a way to move through various regions of the world. World's huge economic players always keep an eye on the IOR for its strategic importance. The Indian Ocean is a gateway to the Atlantic Ocean through the Mediterranean Sea via the Red Sea and it also provides a way to the Pacific Ocean through the Strait of Malacca. It is the main shipping channel for the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. The Indian Ocean region is spread over 28 states, three continents and covers 17.5% of the global land area. The IOR is home to almost 36% of the population of the world. The region is proven to have a rich petroleum resources and other metals. Indian Ocean is also a rich source of fish and its export. Major Sea routes of the world pass through the Indian Ocean that connects the Middle East, Africa, and East Asia with Europe and the Americas.

Reason- Need for a diverse work profile with wider impact. Q. How much did you rely on online sources/videos while preparing for this exam? It was a mix of online resources and books. I used mrunal.org extensively for all the basic subjects like economics and geography. Q. How did you make notes? Extensive notes from current affairs and all the basic books on A4 sheets. Notes are very important for timely revision. Q. Prelim 2017’s and 2018’s GS papers were very tough. What are your views? If you were to prepare for the Prelims-2019, what changes would you make in the strategy? Almost 60% questions in last 2 prelims were applied. Only basic books won't suffice now. Need of next examinations as per my understanding is ability to eliminate options based on applied knowledge and solve more and more MCQ's to deal with complex, ambiguous and lengthy questions Q. Kindly tell us how to complete GS paper-II (Prelims) in time. As mentioned above, the best way is to solve lot of practice papers before going into the actual exam. Also the proven strategy of doing 3 rounds of the paper needs a rethink, given the lengthy nature of questions. Q. Kindly tell us about your approximate no. of attempted answers vs. correct answers you got in Prelims-2018. Attempt 100, Correct-66, Incorrect-34 Q.
