Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsWays of Fishery Local Life: Processes of Participation in Management of Natural Resources in the Coastal Areas of the Upper Gulf of Eastern AreaSulak Sa-Ngiamlak, Kla Somtrakul, Thipaporn PohthawinProblem statement: Local fishery was an inherited occupation for a long time. The objective of this research were to study: (1) the local fishery lifestyle of community in local fishery on upper area in Gulf of Thailand, (2) the appropriate participation process in natural resource management on upper part in Gulf of Thailand of people and organization and (3) the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 16 Sep 2011 · 7,866 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimization of Bathymetry Database for Coastal AreasWorachat Wannawong, Prungchan Wongwises, Usa W. HumphriesProblem statement: A database containing gridded bathymetries with different coverages and resolutions has been established. Approach: The interpolation techniques of the gridded bathymetries have been developed to define the spherical, rectangular and curvilinear coordinate grid systems. Results: Subsequently, merging of the bathymetry results has also been developed to define the optimal bathymetry. Furthermore, the bathymetries were established in order to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,223 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImpacts of Typhoon on Wave Height at Bangkhuntien ShorelinePrasertsak Ekphisutsuntorn, Prungchan Wongwises, Jiang Zhu, Suphat VongvisessomjaiProblem statement: In this study, the changing of wave height at Bangkhuntien during a passage of typhoon LINDA was simulated by using the Simulating WAves Nearshore Model (SWAN) version 40.41. The study domain covered from 99-101°E longitude and 12-14°N in latitude with resolution of 2.4×2.4 km. The simulation covered 10 days during typhoon LINDA entering into the Upper Gulf of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,465 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Application of Simulating WAves Nearshore Model for Wave Height Simulation at Bangkhuntien ShorelinePrasertsak Ekphisutsuntorn, Prungchan Wongwises, Chaiyuth Chinnarasri et al.Problem statement: In this study, the significant wave height at the Upper Gulf of Thailand and the change of wave height at Bangkhuntien shoreline were simulated by using the Simulating WAves Nearshore Model (SWAN) version 40.51. Approach: The simulated significant wave height by the SWAN model at Petchburi buoy station and Ko Srichang buoy station were compared with the observed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,049 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Two-Dimensional Wave Prediction Model Along the Best Track of Typhoon Linda 1997Worachat Wannawong, Usa W. Humphries, Prungchan Wongwises et al.Problem statement: A two-dimensional wave prediction model along the best track of Typhoon Linda 1997 was interested to study the impact of typhoon wind-wave characteristics. The dynamical wave model with deep water condition was used to predict the wave height (Hs) of Typhoon Linda before and after entering into the Gulf of Thailand (GoT). Approach: The standard one-way nested grid … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,244 accessesView PDF Cite
