    • Contribution of mesoscale processes to nutrient budgets in the Arabian Sea 

      Resplandy, L.; Levy, M.; Madec, G.; Pous, S.; Aumont, O.; DileepKumar, M. (American Geophysical Union, 2011)
      We examine the impact of mesoscale dynamics on the seasonal cycle of primary production in the Arabian Sea with an eddy-resolving (1/12 degrees) bio-physical model. Comparison with observations indicates that the numerical ...
    • Controlling factors of the oxygen balance in the Arabian Sea's OMZ 

      Resplandy, L.; Levy, M.; Bopp, L.; Echevin, V.; Pous, S.; Sarma, V.V.S.S.; Kumar, M.D. (European Geosciences Union, 2012)
      The expansion of OMZs (oxygen minimum zones) due to climate change and their possible evolution and impacts on the ecosystems and the atmosphere are still debated, mostly because of the inability of global climate models ...
    • Intraseasonal variability of mixed layer depth in the tropical Indian Ocean 

      Keerthi, M.G.; Lengaigne, M.; Drushka, K.; Vialard, J.; de Boyer, M.C.; Pous, S.; Levy, M.; Muraleedharan, P.M. (Springer, 2016)
      In this paper, we use an observational dataset built from Argo in situ profiles to describe the main large-scale patterns of intraseasonal mixed layer depth (MLD) variations in the Indian Ocean. An eddy permitting (0.25°) ...
    • Is there an effect of Bay of Bengal salinity on the northern Indian Ocean climatological rainfall? 

      Krishnamohan, K.S.; Vialard, J.; Lengaigne, M.; Masson, S.; Samson, G.; Pous, S.; Neetu, S.; Durand, F.; Shenoi, S.S.C.; Madec, G. (2019)
      The northern Bay of Bengal (BoB) receives a large amount of freshwater directly from monsoonal rains over the ocean, and indirectly through river runoffs. It has been proposed that the resulting strong salinity stratification ...
    • Processes of India's offshore summer intraseasonal sea surface temperature variability 

      Kurian, N.; Lengaigne, M.; Gopalakrishna, V.V.; Vialard, J.; Pous, S.; Peter, A-C.; Durand, F.; Naik, Shweta (Springer, 2013)
      Active and break phases of the Indian summer monsoon are associated with sea surface temperature (SST) fluctuations at 30-90 days timescale in the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal. Mechanisms responsible for basin-scale ...
    • Processes of interannual mixed layer temperature variability in the thermocline ridge of the Indian Ocean 

      PraveenKumar, B.; Vialard, J.; Lengaigne, M.; Murty, V.S.N.; Foltz, G.R.; McPhaden, M.J.; Pous, S.; Montegut , C.deB. (Springer, 2014)
      Sea-surface temperature interannual anomalies (SSTAs) in the thermocline ridge of the southwestern tropical Indian Ocean (TRIO) have several well-documented climate impacts. In this paper, we explore the physical processes ...
    • The NOW regional coupled model: Application to the tropical Indian Ocean climate and tropical cyclone activity 

      Samson, G.; Masson, S.; Lengaigne, M.; Keerthi, M.G.; Vialard, J.; Pous, S.; Madec, G.; Jourdain, N.C.; Jullien, S.; Menkes, C.; Marchesiello, P. (American Geophysical Union, 2014)
      This paper presents the NOW regional coupled ocean-atmosphere model built from the NEMO ocean and WRF atmospheric numerical models. This model is applied to the tropical Indian Ocean, with the oceanic and atmospheric ...
