Objective:

1. Investigate the dynamics of key ocean climatic variables: The first objective is to investigate the dynamics of key ocean climatic variables, such as sea surface temperature, ocean heat content, sea level changes, and waves on a regional scale. This research will enhance our understanding of the factors driving climate change impacts in coastal regions of Kerala. It will involve studying long-term trends, patterns, and variations in these variables and their relationship to climate change-induced alterations in ocean systems.
2.  Assess the impacts of climate change on Kerala's coastal regions: The second objective is to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the impacts of climate change on Kerala's coastal areas. This includes analysing the effects of rising sea levels, changes in storm frequency and intensity, increased precipitation, and warmer ocean temperatures on shoreline erosion, coastal flooding, and water pollution using remote sensing data and models. By understanding these impacts, effective mitigation and adaptation strategies can be developed.
3. Develop predictive models and strategies for coastal resilience: The third objective is to develop predictive models and strategies that can be used to enhance coastal resilience in Kerala. By integrating the knowledge gained from understanding the dynamics of key ocean climatic variables and assessing climate change impacts, this objective aims to develop tools and approaches for predicting and managing the risks associated with coastal challenges.
