Abstract
Prior to implication of mathematical model as a tool for any kind of policy making or decision making, the model must be calibrated against appropriate observed data. The two-dimensional sediment transport model of the Bay of Bengal usually being calibrated against suspended sediment concentration at different locations comparing the model results with field measurements to make the model performance to a satisfactory level. Since field data of sediment concentration is rarely available for model calibration, an attempt has been made in the present study, to generate sediment concentration data by using satellite images to calibrate the sediment transport model in a better way. Calibration of sediment transport model result against image generated sediment concentration at different locations of Bay of Bengal show acceptable agreement.
