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 ...
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. ...
Daily SST fields produced by blending infrared and microwave radiometer estimates
(PORSEC 2002 Secretariat; Bogor; Indonesia, 2002)
Measurement of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) using satellite based sensors have matured during the last decade. The infrared measurements, using the AVHRR sensor, flown onboard the NOAA satellites, have been used for the ...
Seasonal variability of cyclone heat potential in the Bay of Bengal
(Kluwer Academic, 2004)
Monthly maps of cyclone heat potential (CHP) in the Bay of Bengal have been prepared by using Levitus climatological data set. Seasonal variability of CHP in the Bay of Bengal has been studied using the CTD data sets ...
Pigment patterns in the Arabian Sea: Spatio-temporal variability as observed by ADEOS
(NIO, Dona Paula, Goa (India), 2000)
The spatial and temporal variations of the near-surface concentration of phytoplankton pigment observed by ADEOS during November 1996 - May 1997 are studied in relation to SST and winds. Monthly composite images from OCTS ...
