This study aims to explore the variations in spatial/Spatio-temporal characteristics of water quality parameters of three estuaries in the western part of the Indian Sundarbans. Reliable retrieval of near surface concentrations of parameters such as Chlorophyll-a, SST & TSM in various aquatic ecosystems with broad ranges of trophic needs has long been a complex issue. In this study the C2RCC processor has been applied that has been tested for its accuracy across different bio optical regimes in inland & coastal waters. Satellite images for the same period were also collected and analysed using the C2RCC processing sequence to retrieve values of parameters such as the depth of water, surface reflectance, water temperature, inherent optical properties (IOPs), salinity, chlorophyll-a and total suspended matter (TSM) using the SNAP software. During the 2017-2020 season, in situ sampling from specific locations and laboratory water quality analysis were carried out. The OLCI retrieved results were then trained and validated using the in situ datasets. It was observed that the highest amount of TSM was recorded in Diamond Harbour during the pre-monsoon, in the year 2018 (301.40 mgL-1 in-situ value, and 308.54 mg L-1 estimated value). Similarly, chlorophyll-a had higher concentrations during the monsoon season (3.03 mg m-3, in-situ, and 2.96 mg m-3, estimated) in Fraserganj and Sagar south points. Very good fitted correlation results for all seasons between Chl-a, r = 0.829 and TSM, r = 0.924 were found during the comparisons of OLCI and in situ results. The high level of correlation highlights the importance of both primary and secondary data in understanding any dynamic system properly. Finally, the result shows that the water quality model outperforms conventional techniques and OLCI chl-a and TSM products. This paper empirically investigates a reliable remote sensing method for estimating coastal TSM and chl-a concentrations and supports the use of OLCI data in ocean colour remote sensing.

Using an updated set of GPS surface velocities, the present study provides fault locking behavior and slip rate distribution of the Main Himalayan Thrust (MHT) along the central Himalaya. The two-dimensional velocity field is inverted through Bayesian inversion to estimate fault geometry and kinematic parameters of the MHT along the central Himalaya. The modeling results reveal that: (1) MHT is fully locked in the upper flat (0-9 km), partially locked along the mid-crustal ramp (15-21 km), and it is creeping in the deeper flat (> 21 km); (2) there is an insignificant slip rate of MHT along the locked-to-creeping transition zone, indicating its partially coupled/locked behavior; (3) along the deeper flat of the MHT, the estimated creeping rate is ~16.3 mm/yr, ~14.7 mm/yr, and ~14.3 mm/yr along western, central, and eastern Nepal, respectively; and (4) along the MHT on the upper crust, the modeled locking width turns out to be 97 km, 106 km, and 129 km in the western, central, and eastern Nepal, respectively. In addition, the posterior probability distribution of the locking width exhibits a bimodal Gaussian distribution coinciding with the two ramp geometry of the MHT along the western Nepal. Along the foothills of the Higher Himalaya, the inferred locking line is also aligned to the estimated maximum shear strain concentration and observed seismicity along the central Himalaya. With a general agreement to the previous geodetic results, geological estimates, and background seismicity, our findings provide a promising avenue of the contemporary crustal deformation along the Nepal Himalaya. The estimated inversion results in a Bayesian framework exhibit updated fault kinematics of the MHT and hence provides valuable inputs for seismic hazard assessment along the central Himalaya.
