Ocean atmosphere thermal decoupling in the eastern equatorial Indian ocean

Climate Dynamics, 2016
Eastern equatorial Indian ocean (EEIO) is one of the most climatically sensitive regions in the global ocean, which plays a vital role in modulating Indian ocean dipole (IOD) and El Nino southern oscillation (ENSO). Here we present evidences for a paradoxical and perpetual lower co-variability between sea-surface temperature (SST) and air-temperature ...

Clay mineralogy and sedimentation in the eastern Indian Ocean

Deep Sea Research and Oceanographic Abstracts, 1973
Abstract The distributions of clay minerals in the surface sediments based on about 100 new samples from the eastern Indian Ocean reveal several distinctive sediment sources which differ from those reported previously by other workers. We observe the following: (1) large zones around the periphery of the study area are characterized by abundant ...

Disentangling environmental effects on picophytoplankton communities in the Eastern Indian Ocean

Environmental Research, 2023
Photosynthesis by picophytoplankton provides energy for higher organisms and is essential in the food chain and global carbon cycle. In 2020 and 2021, we investigated the spatial distribution and vertical changes of picophytoplankton in the euphotic layer of the Eastern Indian Ocean (EIO) and estimated their carbon biomass contributions through two ...

Paleocene oceanography of the eastern subtropical Indian Ocean

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2002
Surface and deep water circulation patterns in the eastern Indian Ocean during the Paleocene Epoch are inferred based on an integrated magnetobiostratigraphic and stable isotope investigation of Ocean Drilling Program Hole 761B, drilled on the Wombat Plateau.

Thermal Anomalies in the Eastern Indian Ocean

Nature Physical Science, 1972
STANDARD works on oceanography usually show water temperatures for February and August, on the normally valid assumption that these months represent the seasonal extremes. Various aspects of water circulation and climatic rhythm in the Western Australian region are quite anomalous1,2 and cannot be explained in terms of atmospheric or terrestrial ...

Deep Western Boundary Current in the Eastern Indian Ocean

Science, 1977
Historical temperature data suggest that the deep circulation of the eastern Indian Ocean is a system separate from that in the west, with its water being supplied directly from the south. If so, then circulation theory would require that the northward flow take the form of a narrow western boundary current along the Ninetyeast Ridge ...

Variations in the eastern Indian Ocean warm pool and its relation to the dipole in the tropical Indian Ocean

Chinese Journal of Oceanology and Limnology, 2009
Based on the monthly average SST and 850 hPa monthly average wind data, the seasonal, interannual and long-term variations in the eastern Indian Ocean warm pool (EIWP) and its relationship to the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), and its response to the wind over the Indian Ocean are analyzed in this study.

Pre-Mesozoic Oceanic Crust in the Eastern Indian Ocean (Wharton Basin)?

Nature, 1971
A search for ocean basins underlain by old crust has suggested that the Wharton Basin would be a likely place to investigate.

The Arms Trade in the Eastern Indian Ocean

2012
Decades before the gun-running scenarios of the western Indian Ocean had even materialized, a substantial trade in ‘warlike stores’ was already being conducted across the frontiers of the eastern Indian Ocean. British trading outposts at Penang, Malacca, and Singapore, established between 1786 and 1824, were soon cast as commercial entrepots in the ...

Geostrophic currents in the south-eastern Indian Ocean

Australian Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 1965
Dynamic topographies and geostrophic currents in the upper 1750 m are presented for several cruises between 1960 and 1963. The mean zonal surface circulation is shown to consist of the south equatorial current, 9-14º S., and a weak easterly current between 14º and 32º C.
