Abstract: wake due to islands in background zonal flow has been observed in the equatorial Pacific Ocean. This study detects and examines a wake due to the Maldives in the eastward Wyrtki jet in the Indian Ocean. Observations by ...

Abstract: The relationship between the interannual variation of the surface wind in the north Indian Ocean (0°?30°N, 30°?100°E) and El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO) during boreal summer is investigated. The association of the ...

Abstract: The seasonal development of the sea surface temperature (SST) anomaly in the Indian Ocean is investigated in relation to El Niño?Southern Oscillation (ENSO), using NOAA optimally interpolated SST and NCEP reanalysis data. ...

Abstract: AbstractThis study investigates an isopycnal temperature/salinity T/S, or spiciness, anomaly in the upper south Indian Ocean for the period from 2004 to 2015 using observations and reanalyses. Spiciness anomalies at about ...

Abstract: The heat balance of the surface mixed layer is analyzed at the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean (0°, 140°W) in order to examine the transition from the 1998 La Niña to the 2002 El Niño. The data used are observations from ...

Abstract: his study examines heat advection due to mixed Rossby gravity waves in the equatorial Indian Ocean using moored buoy observations at (0°, 80.5°E) and (0°, 90°E) and an ocean general circulation model (OGCM) output. Variability ...

Abstract: he sea surface temperature (SST) in the western Arabian Sea upwelling region is known to influence the amount of precipitation associated with the Indian summer monsoon. Thus, understanding what determines the SST in this ...
