    • Minima of interannual sea-level variability in the Indian Ocean 

      Shankar, D.; Aparna, S.G.; McCreary, J.P.; Suresh, I.; Neetu, S.; Durand, F.; Shenoi, S.S.C.; Al Saafani, M.A. (Elsevier, 2010)
      Wavelet analysis of altimeter sea level in the Indian Ocean shows regions of high variability (maxima) and low variability (minima) at all time scales. At interannual time scales, i.e., at periods of 17 months or more, ...
    • Physical Oceanography of the Gulf of Aden 

      Al Saafani, M.A. (2008)
      This thesis aims at the synthesis of various data sets (hydrography, sea levels, winds, and model outputs) to describe the circulation and water masses in the Gulf of Aden more precisely than before. The main objectives ...
    • Water masses in the Gulf of Aden 

      Al Saafani, M.A.; Shenoi, S.S.C. (The Oceanographic Society of Japan, 2007)
      Hydrographic data collected from Gulf of Aden since 1920 have been compiled to identify and refine the definitions of water masses in the Gulf of Aden (GA) and to describe their spatio-temporal variability. Four water ...
    • Westward movement of eddies into the Gulf of Aden from the Arabian Sea 

      Al Saafani, M.A.; Shenoi, S.S.C.; Shankar, D.; Aparna, M.; Kurian, J.; Durand, F.; Vinayachandran, P.N. (American Geophysical Union, 2007)
      Sea level anomalies (SLA) from satellite altimetry (1993-2003) reveal the westward movement of mesoscale eddies in the Gulf of Aden. Inside the gulf the eddies move at a speed of approx. 6.0-8.5 cm s sup(-1), comparable ...
