Abstract: Sea level observations in the equatorial Indian Ocean show a dominant spectral peak at 90 days and secondary peaks at 30?60 days over an intraseasonal period (20?90 days). A detailed investigation of the origins and dynamics ...

Abstract: The relationship between atmospheric subseasonal variability and interannual variation of SST over the tropical Indian Ocean is examined using winds and humidity from the NCEP?NCAR reanalysis, outgoing longwave radiation ...

Abstract: An ocean general circulation model (OGCM) is used to study the roles of equatorial waves and western boundary reflection in the seasonal circulation of the equatorial Indian Ocean. The western boundary reflection is defined ...

Abstract: n this study decadal (≥10 yr) sea level variations in the Indian Ocean (IO) during 1950?2012 are investigated using the Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM). The solution of the main run agrees well with observations in ...

Abstract: he relative importance of local versus remote forcing on intraseasonal-to-interannual sea level and thermocline variability of the tropical south Indian Ocean (SIO) is systematically examined by performing a suite of ...

Abstract: A nonlinear, 4½-layer reduced-gravity ocean model with active thermodynamics and mixed layer physics is used to investigate the causes of sea level interannual variability in the Bay of Bengal, which may contribute to ...

Abstract: tmospheric intraseasonal variability in the tropical Atlantic is analyzed using satellite winds, outgoing longwave radiation (OLR), and reanalysis products during 2000?08. The analyses focus on assessing the effects of ...

Abstract: AbstractObservations show that decadal (10?20 yr) to interdecadal (>20 yr) variability of the tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) sea surface temperature (SST) closely follows that of the Pacific until the 1960s. Since then, the ...
