Annual and seasonal mean buoyancy fluxes for the tropical Indian Ocean
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, 1997)INSAT-derived monthly mean precipitation, combined with estimates of evaporation from COADS, are used to prepare the annual mean and seasonal distributions of evaporation-precipitation (E-P)) and buoyancy fluxes for the ... -
A semi-diagnostic calculation of climatic circulation in the western Indian Ocean
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)A 3-dimensional, semi-diagnostic circulation model is used to compute the climatic circulation in the upper levels of western tropical Indian Ocean (20 degrees S-30 degrees N and 35 degrees E-80 degrees E) during the ... -
Annual and interannual variation of precipitation over the tropical Indian Ocean
(American Geophysical Union, 1997)The annual and interannual variability of precipitation over the tropical Indian Ocean is studied for the period June 1986 to December 1990 using the data retrieved from the Indian National Satellite (INSAT). The seasonal ... -
Sensitivity experiments with an adaptation model of circulation of western tropical Indian Ocean
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)One 18-level adaptation model of circulation with a flat bottom at 900 m depth has been used to study the sensitivity of the solution to different magnitudes of eddy viscosity and diffusivity coefficients. Three numerical ... -
Computation of large scale currents in the Arabian Sea during winter using a semi-diagnostic model
(Indian National Science Academy, 1997)A 3-dimensional, semi-diagnostic model with 331 levels in the vertical has been used for the computation of climatic circulation in the western tropical Indian Ocean. Model is driven with the seasonal mean data on wind ... -
Predicting monsoon rainfall and pressure indices from sea surface temperature
(Current Science Association, Bangalore, 1997)The relationship between the sea surface temperature (SST) in the Indian Ocean and monsoon rainfall has been examined by using 21 years data set (1967-87) of MOHSST.6 (Met. Office Historical Sea Surface Temperature data ... -
Storm surge in the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea: The problem and its prediction
(India Meteorological Department, 1997)India and its neighbourhood is threatened by the possibility of storm surge floods whenever a tropical cyclone approaches. Storm surge disasters cause heavy loss of life and property, damage to the coastal structures and ... -
Tidal propagation in the Mandovi-Zuari Estuarine network, west coast of India: Impact of freshwater influx
(Academic Press, 1997)The Mandovi-Zuari estuarine network on the west coast of India consists of shallow strongly converging channels, that receive large seasonal influx of fresh water due to the monsoons. The main channels, the Mandovi and ... -
On the dynamics of the Lakshadweep high and low in the southeastern Arabian Sea
(American Geophysical Union, 1997)Hydrography and altimetry show that a "high" in surface topography forms off southwest India in January (midnortheast monsoon) and that a "low" forms during the southwest monsoon; the high and low, called Lakshadweep high ... -
Wave directional spreading at shallow and intermediate depth
(Cent. for Earth Sci. Stud., Cochin (India), 1997)Based on wave measurements carried out at shallow and intermediate water depths variation of directional spread parameter 's' is studied. A comparison of the mean wave directional and principal wave direction shows that ... -
Acoustic propagational characteristics and tomography studies of the northern Indian Ocean
(Narosa, New Delhi (India), 1997)The results of the acoustic tomographic studies carried out in five sections of the Northern Indian Ocean is given. The characteristics of the sound speed field of the northern Indian Ocean comprising of the Arabian Sea ... -
Acoustical characteristics and simulated tomographic inversion of a cold core eddy in the Bay of Bengal
(European Acoustics Association, 1997)Acoustic characteristics of a subsurface, cold core eddy observed in the Bay of Bengal during southwest monsoon period is presented based on CTD (Conductivity Temperature Depth) data from 42 stations. The effect of the ... -
Large-scale processes in the upper layers of the Indian Ocean inferred from temperature climatology
(Sears Foundation, 1997) -
Ascertaining depths for samples from hydrographic casts without CTD
(Cochin University of Science and Technology, Kochi, 1997)A fairly extensive study was conducted in the Arabian Sea in April-May 1195 to ascertain sample depths without CTD. It is shown that depths (degrees 4000 m) derived using (1) only protected thermometer data, and (2) wire ... -
Wave refraction and prediction of breaker parameters along the Kerala Coast, India
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)Numerical wave refraction study for the Kerala Coast has been carried out for waves representing southwest monsoon (June-September), northest monsoon (October-February) and fair weather period (February-May). Distribution ... -
Impact of 1990-'95 ENSO/WEPO event on Indian monsoon rainfall
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)The negative phase of the 1990-'95 El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the associated Warming of the Equatorial Pacific Ocean (WEPO) was the longest observed in the 113 years of its recorded history, compared to its ... -
Killer storms from the seas
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)The author has discussed the distruction taking place due to cyclone in the Indian subcontinent of formation which is said to be the result of thermal fronts in the atmosphere and sea interaction of different air masses ... -
Numerical modelling of tides and tidal currents in the Gulf of Kutch
(Cent. for Earth Sci. Stud., Cochin (India), 1997)An application of a two-dimensional tidal model to study the tidal regime in the Gulf of Kutch is made. This is with a view to synthesise various information on tides and currents that are available in the Gulf. A comparison ... -
Numerical experimentation of a diagnostic model of 3-D circulation in the Arabian Sea
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 1997)Climatic circulation in the upper levels of the Arabian Sea and western equatorial Indian Ocean are computed using a 3-dimensional, 33 level diagnostic circulation model. A steady state solution is obtained within 30 days ...
