Inter-annual variability of sea surface temperature, wind speed and sea surface height anomaly over the tropical Indian Ocean
(NIO, Dona Paula, Goa (India), 2000)
Being land-locked at the north, the Indian Ocean and its surrounding atmosphere behave in such a way that the ocean-atmosphere interaction over this domain is different from that over the other oceans, exhibiting a peculiar ...
An interactive software package for validating satellite data
(Universidad de Concepcion, 2004)
Earth observation satellite launched in the last three decades have made vital contributions to the understanding of the planet. The earth system consisting of land, oceans and atmosphere is linked together by a number of ...
Why is Bay of Bengal warmer than Arabian Sea during the summer monsoon?
(School of Naval Oceanology and Meteorology, India, 2004)
The near-surface Bay of Bengal remains significantly warmer than the Arabian Sea during summer monsoon (June-September). Analysis of the heat budgets of the near-surface Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal shows significant ...
BOBMEX: The Bay of Bengal Monsoon Experiment
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)
The first observational experiment under the Indian Climate Research Programme, called the Bay of Bengal Monsoon Experiment (BOBMEX), was carried out during July-August 1999. BOBMEX was aimed at measurements of important ...
Upper ocean variability in the Bay of Bengal during the tropical cyclones Nargis and Laila
(Elsevier, 2012)
Upper ocean variability at different stages in the evolution of the tropical cyclones Nargis and Laila is evaluated over the Bay of Bengal (BoB) during May 2008 and May 2010 respectively. Nargis initially developed on 24 ...
Detection of Bay of Bengal eddies from TOPEX and in situ observations
(Sears Foundation, 2000)
Oceanic eddies have warm or cold temperatures and high or low sea surface height (SSH) at the center depending upon the direction of rotation. However, since the Bay of Bengal waters are highly stratified, sea surface ...
Warm pool thermodynamics from the Arabian Sea Monsoon Experiment (ARMEX)
(American Geophysical Union, 2008)
Before the onset of the south Asian summer monsoon, sea surface temperature (SST) of the north Indian Ocean warms to 30-32 degrees C. Climatological mean mixed layer depth in spring (March-May) is 10-20 m, and net surface ...
An ENSO beginning in the year 2000?
(NIO, Dona Paula, Goa (India), 2000)
Several models have been developed over the last few decades to predict the advent of new ENSO events several months in advance of the actual event. None of the models have predicted a warm event beginning by the year 2000. ...
Heat content variability in the tropical Indian Ocean during second pre-INDOEX campaign (boreal winter 1996-1997)
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1999)
Surface meteorological data and upper ocean temperature profiles are obtained on-board ORV Sagar Kanya (cruise 120) during the second pre-INDOEX Campaign (December 1996-January 1997) for evaluating the north-south variability ...
Role of the Indian Ocean on the southern oscillation, atmospheric circulation indices and monsoon rainfall over India
(Taylor and Francis, 1999)
The relationship between the sea surface temperature (SST) in a small region (0-5 N; 80-85 E) in the Eastern Equatorial Indian Ocean and Indian monsoon rainfall and monsoon Indices (M1, U200) has been examined. The role ...
