Mean surface fields of heat budget components over the warm pool in the Bay of Bengal during post-monsoon season
(Tata McGraw-Hill, New Delhi, India, 1999)
Surface meteorological data collected onboard research vessels ORV Sagarkanya and Gaveshani during 1983-85 have been used in these studies. The analysis revealed that the Mean Sea surface temperature (SST was greater than ...
On the role of the cross equatorial flow on summer monsoon rainfall over India using NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data
(Springer, 1999)
The role of the cross equatorial flow from the southern Indian Ocean on the Indian Summer monsoon is examined using the National Centre for Environmental Prediction (NCEP)/National Centre for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) ...
Foraminifera and changing pattern of monsoon rainfall
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1993)
The palaeomonsoonal history can be reconstructed utilizing climatically sensitive properties of marine microorganisms; foraminifera. The results show a major boundary at 3500 years B.P. and periods of rather low precipitation ...
Change in the intensity of low-salinity water inflow from the Bay of Bengal into the Eastern Arabian Sea from the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene: Implications for monsoon variations
(Elsevier, 2014)
A 100–400 km wide region of the coastal Eastern Arabian Sea (EAS), off the west-coast of India, is characterized by a low-salinity tongue formed by the inflow of low-salinity surface water from the Bay of Bengal (BoB). ...
Influence of the monsoon trough on air-sea interaction in the head of the Bay of Bengal during the southwest monsoon of 1990 (monsoon trough boundary layer experiment - 90)
(Kluwer, 1997)
The analysis of 3-hourly time-series data on surface meteorological parameters collected at 20 degrees N, 89 degrees E in the head of the Bay of Bengal during the southwest monsoon period (18 August - 19 Spetember) of 1990 ...
Biological productivity and potential resources of the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) of India
(Fishery Survey of India, 2004)
An assessment of the biological production and the potential fishery resources has been made based on the data collected over a period of 15 years (1976-1991). The entire Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), measuring 2.02 million ...
Seasonal variability in distribution and fluxes of methane in the Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 1998)
Methane, a biogeochemically important gas in Earth's atmosphere was measured in the water column and air in the Arabian Sea in different seasons, viz., northeast monsoon, intermonsoon, and southwest monsoon, as part of the ...
Wave refraction and prediction of breaker parameters along the Kerala Coast, India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)
Numerical wave refraction study for the Kerala Coast has been carried out for waves representing southwest monsoon (June-September), northest monsoon (October-February) and fair weather period (February-May). Distribution ...
Diatoms of the microphytobenthic community in a tropical intertidal sand flat influenced by monsoons: Spatial and temporal variations
(Springer, 2006)
Seasonal variations in the microphytobenthic diatom community were investigated in an intertidal sand flat of a tropical marine environment influenced by monsoons. Cores of sediments were collected along the beach gradient: ...
Clay minerals as palaeomonsoon proxies: Evaluation and relevance to the late Quaternary records from SE Arabian Sea
(NCAOR, Goa, 2005)
Palaeoclimatic studies are largely dependent on the quality of records and a prudent use of environmental proxy indicators. In this study, the factors affecting the detrital clay minerals in marine environment and their ...
