Observational evidence for westward propagation of temperature inversions in the southeastern Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)
A warm pool forms in the southeastern Arabian Sea (SEAS) prior to the onset of the summer monsoon over India in early June; the core
of this warm pool is in the Lakshadweep Sea (LS). XBT and surface salinity data collected ...
Are eddies nature’s trigger to enhance biological productivity in the Bay of Bengal?
(American Geophysical Union, 2004)
The Bay of Bengal is traditionally considered to be a less productive basin compared to the Arabian Sea. Despite the contrasting chlorophyll and primary productivity pattern, sediment trap data shows that annual fluxes of ...
Wave characteristics off Visakhapatnam coast during a cyclone
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2004)
Waves were measured using a directional waverider buoy off Visakhapatnam, east coast of India during the passage of a cyclone in November 1998. The maximum wave height observed during the passage was 5.74 m, whereas this ...
Fluvial influx and weathering history of the Himalayas since Last Glacial Maxima - Isotopic, sedimentological and magnetic records from the Bay of Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2004)
From temporal variations in stable isotopes, mineral magnetism, clay minerals and granulometric parameters from a sup(14) C dated core have been used to understand weathering history and influence of climate on the terrigenous ...
Differential response of winter cooling on biological production in the northeastern Arabian Sea and northwestern Bay of Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2004)
The northern parts of the twin seas bordering the Indian subcontinent, the Arabian Sea (AS) and Bay of Bengal (BOB), were studied during the winter monsoon. Higher biological production was observed in the AS (chlorophyll ...
Record decrease of sea surface temperature following the passage of a super cyclone over the Bay of Bengal
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2004)
A super cyclone with a central pressure of 912 hPa which was the lowest sofar in any tropical cyclone in Bay of Bengal, hit Paradeep coast on 29th October, 1999. The system was stationary for 30 hours after landfall and a ...
