RAMA: The Research Moored Array for African-Asian-Australian Monsoon Analysis and Prediction (including supplement)
(American Meteorological Society, 2009)
The Indian Ocean is unique among the three tropical ocean basins in that it is blocked at 25 degrees N by the Asian landmass. Seasonal heating and cooling of the land sets the stage for dramatic monsoon wind reversals, ...
Why is mean sea level along the Indian coast higher in the Bay of Bengal than in the Arabian Sea?
(Americal Geophysical Union, 2001)
Levelling observations conducted during the Great Trigonometrical Survey of India (1858-1909) and subsequent observations showed that mean sea level along the coast of India is higher in the Bay of Bengal than in the Arabian ...
Air Sea Interaction Over the Indian Ocean During the Contrasting Monsoon Years 2002 and 2003
(American Geophysical Union, 2005)
The air sea interaction processes over the Indian Ocean are studied using the satellite data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Satellite for two contrasting monsoon years, namely 2002 (deficit) and 2003 (normal). ...
Role of eddies in the Bay of Bengal circulation and hydrography and in the distribution of nutrients and chlorophyll
(2007)
Eddies are ubiquitous in the ocean and are products of geophysical turbulence. They develop from the hydrodynamic instabilities and are known to alter the physical and biochemical properties of the ocean. In the north ...
