Abstract: New satellite and in situ observations show large intraseasonal (10?60 day) variability of surface winds and upper-ocean current in the equatorial Indian Ocean, particularly in the east. An ocean model forced by the Quick ...

Abstract: Variability of the wind field over the equatorial Indian Ocean is spread throughout the intraseasonal (10?60 day) band. In contrast, variability of the near-surface ? field in the eastern, equatorial ocean is concentrated ...

Abstract: AbstractCyclone Phailin, which developed over the Bay of Bengal in October 2013, was one of the strongest tropical cyclones to make landfall in India. We study the response of the salinity-stratified north Bay of Bengal ...

Abstract: Horizontal currents in the Bay of Bengal were measured on eight cruises covering a total of 8600 km using a 300-kHz acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP). The cruises are distributed over multiple seasons and regions ...

Abstract: Time series of surface meteorology and air?sea fluxes from the northern Bay of Bengal are analyzed, quantifying annual and seasonal means, variability, and the potential for surface fluxes to contribute significantly to ...

Abstract: ir?Sea Interactions in the Northern Indian Ocean (ASIRI) is an international research effort (2013?17) aimed at understanding and quantifying coupled atmosphere?ocean dynamics of the Bay of Bengal (BoB) with relevance to ...
