A cold pool south of Indo-Sri Lanka channel and its intrus on into the southeastern Arabian Sea during winter
(Elsevier, 2008)During winter, south of the Indo-Sri Lanka Channel (ISLC), the observed sea-surface temperature (SST) distribution shows a distinct mini-cold pool (MCP) with relatively cooler waters (SST is less than 28 degrees C). All ... -
A temperature profiler
(Publ. and Inf. Dir., New Delhi, India, 1994)An instrument developed for measuring temperature profiles at sea in depth or time scales is described. PC-based programming offers flexibility in setting up the instrument for the mode of operation prior to each cast. A ... -
Determination of dynamic heights in the Bay of Bengal from XBT profiles and climatological salinities
(Sears Foundation for Marine Research, 2005)Dynamic height (DH) computations are necessary for the estimation of geostrophic currents, heat transport studies, identification of eddies and to validate the altimeter sea surface height (SSH) observations. To compute ... -
Heat content variability in the tropical Indian Ocean during second pre-INDOEX campaign (boreal winter 1996-1997)
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, India, 1999)Surface meteorological data and upper ocean temperature profiles are obtained on-board ORV Sagar Kanya (cruise 120) during the second pre-INDOEX Campaign (December 1996-January 1997) for evaluating the north-south variability ... -
Observed variability of sea surface salinity and thermal inversions in the Lakshadweep Sea during contrast monsoons
(AGU, 2005)The sea surface salinity (SSS) of the Lakshadweep Sea (LS) shows large seasonal variability due to horizontal advection of low (high) salinity waters from south (north) during winter (summer) monsoon. The measurements made ... -
Seasonal spreading of the Persian Gulf water mass in the Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 2001)The characteristics of the subsurface salinity maximum associated with the Persian Gulf Water mass (PGW) are used to quantify the spreading and mixing of PGW in the thermocline of the Arabian Sea based on a bimonthly ... -
Surface layer temperature inversion in the Bay of Bengal
(Pergamon, 2002)Surface layer temperature inversion occurring in the Bay of Bengal has been addressed. Hydrographic data archived in the Indian Oceanographic Data Center are used to understand various aspects of the temperature inversion ... -
Vertical distribution of mesozooplankton in the central and eastern Arabian Sea during the winter monsoons
(Cambridge University Press, 1998)The vertical distribution of mesozooplankton in the central and eastern Arabian Sea was investigated during the winter monsoon in 1995. Samples were analysed from discrete depth zones defined according to oxygen and ... -
Water Masses and General Hydrography along the West Coast of India during early March
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1980)Structure of water masses along the west coast of India from Bombay to Trivandrum has been studied through vertical sections of temperature, salinity and density during 3-17 March 1977. The Arabian Sea high salinity water ...
