    • Ocean-atmosphere interactions during cyclone Nargis 

      McPhaden, M.J.; Foltz, G.R.; Lee, T.; Murty, V.S.N.; Ravichandran, M.; Vecchi, G.A.; Vialard, J.; Wiggert, J.D.; Yu, L. (American Geophysical Union, 2009)
      Cyclone Nargis (Figure 1a) made landfall in Myanmar (formerly Burma) on 2 May 2008 with sustained winds of approximately 210 kilometers per hour, equivalent to a category 3-4 hurricane. In addition, Nargis brought approximately ...
    • Processes of interannual mixed layer temperature variability in the thermocline ridge of the Indian Ocean 

      PraveenKumar, B.; Vialard, J.; Lengaigne, M.; Murty, V.S.N.; Foltz, G.R.; McPhaden, M.J.; Pous, S.; Montegut , C.deB. (Springer, 2014)
      Sea-surface temperature interannual anomalies (SSTAs) in the thermocline ridge of the southwestern tropical Indian Ocean (TRIO) have several well-documented climate impacts. In this paper, we explore the physical processes ...
    • Seasonal mixed layer heat balance of the southwestern tropical Indian Ocean 

      Foltz, G.R.; Vialard, J.; PraveenKumar, B.; McPhaden, M.J. (American Meteorological Society, 2010)
      Sea surface temperature (SST) in the southwestern tropical Indian Ocean exerts a significant influence on global climate through its influence on the Indian summer monsoon and Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation. ...
