3.2 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS The study area is approximately 12 km south of Paradeep. The meteorological and oceanographic conditions for the study area are similar to that at Paradeep. The historical data for Paradeep based on the <strong>India</strong> Meteorological Department (IMD) observations from 1969 to 1980 are presented in the following sections. 3.2.1 Climatic Condition The climate at the proposed site is governed by the monsoons. The average maximum temperature varies between 30° C to 33° C during summer reaching maximum of 33.1 ° C in May (Table 3.3). The temperature during winter season was moderate (15° C to 20° C) reaching minimum of 15° C in the month of January. The area experiences humid climate with a maximum day temperature of 41° C and night temperature of 32° C. Minimum temperature recorded was 8.9° C.The average relative humidity varies between 76% to 86% and 70% to 86% in morning and evening respectively. Maximum and minimum values of relative humidity were reported 98% in January 1971 and 47% in February 1972 respectively. 3.2.2 Rainfall Average annual intensity of rainfall was about 1500 mm and minimum of 250 mm. A maximum annual rainfall of 2251 mm was recorded in 197<strong>1.</strong> Generally, the wet season was during southwest monsoon, from June to October (Table 3.3). 3.2.3 Wind Mean wind speed during summer at Paradeep port varies from 18 to 24 km/hr and the predominant direction was south and southwest. The mean wind speed was about 10 to 15 km/hr during winter with the direction north and northeast (Table 47
