The sensitivity of the Bay of Bengal (BoB) upper ocean circulation and thermohaline structure to varying wind strengths and river salinity conditions is investigated using a set of …
This study examines the effect of surface current in the bulk formula for the wind stress, referred to as the relative wind (RW) effect, on the energetics of the geostrophic circulation …
Upper-ocean turbulent heat fluxes in the Bay of Bengal and the Arctic Ocean drive regional monsoons and sea ice melt, respectively, important issues of societal interest. In both cases …
The discharge of freshwater from major rivers into the northern Bay of Bengal (BoB) increases dramatically during the summer monsoon season, reaching a peak in August …
The Indian marine environment supports employment for over 200 million people, including revenue of nearly $7 billion per annum. However, ecological goods and services of the …
Winds generate inertial and near-inertial currents in the upper ocean. These currents dominate the kinetic energy and contain most of the vertical shear in horizontal currents …

We investigate two-dimensional advective stirring by satellite-derived ocean surface currents in the north Bay of Bengal during December 2015–March 2016 using the …
The performance of vertical parameterization schemes, namely, turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and K-profile parameterization (KPP), is evaluated over the domain [30E-120E; 20S …
Accurately representing physical processes over the Indian Ocean in global climate models is critical for predicting weather and climate in many regions over the globe. Because of the …
