Sedimentation in the Tropical Indian Ocean [PDF]

Nature, 1951
As a result of recent investigations1 into the distribution of the Radiolaria in the sediments collected by the Swedish Deep-Sea Expedition in the Western Pacific Ocean, two conclusions of outstanding importance can be drawn: first, that several species of Radiolaria which are widely distributed in the tropical oceans of the present day do not extend ...

The Influence of Tropical Indian Ocean SST on the Indian Summer Monsoon

Journal of Climate, 2007
AbstractThe Indian summer monsoon (ISM) is one of the main components of the Asian summer monsoon. It is well known that one of the starting mechanisms of a summer monsoon is the thermal contrast between land and ocean and that sea surface temperature (SST) and moisture are crucial factors for its evolution and intensity.

Tropical cyclone activity over the Southwest Tropical Indian Ocean [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2016
AbstractThe Southwest Tropical Indian Ocean (SWTIO) is a key region for air‐sea interaction. Tropical cyclones (TCs) regularly form over the SWTIO and subsurface ocean variability influences the cyclogenesis of this region. Tropical cyclone days for this region span from November through April, and peak in January and February during austral summer ...

Shift in tuna catches due to ocean warming. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Ocean warming is already affecting global fisheries with an increasing dominance of catches of warmer water species at higher latitudes and lower catches of tropical and subtropical species in the tropics. Tuna distributions are highly conditioned by sea

Anomalous Walker circulations associated with two flavors of the Indian Ocean Dipole

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
The Walker circulation is the key component of the atmospheric zonal circulation in the tropics. In this study, it is shown that anomalous Walker circulations associated with two types of the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) are remarkably different.

Analysis of sea conditions for manned submersible operation in Southwest Indian Ocean [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2021
The southwest Indian Ocean is an important area for deep-sea investigation and exploration. In this paper, the spatial distribution and temporal variation characteristics of wave elements in the sea area were analyzed by using the high resolution ...

Prediction of the Central Indian Ocean Mode in S2S Models

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Prediction of precipitation during the Indian summer monsoon (ISM) is a persistent scientific challenge. The central Indian Ocean (CIO) mode was proposed as a subseasonal climate mode over the tropical Indian Ocean, and it has a close relation with ...

Modulation of the Intraseasonal Chlorophyll‐a Concentration in the Tropical Indian Ocean by the Central Indian Ocean Mode

Geophysical Research Letters, 2022
AbstractThis study diagnoses the drivers of intraseasonal variability of mixed layer chlorophyll‐a (Chl) concentration in the tropical Indian Ocean during boreal summer (June–September) using a well‐tested coupled ocean‐ecosystem model. Results show that wind forcing is the primary source for energetic intraseasonal Chl concentration variability in the

Impacts of the tropical Indian and Atlantic Oceans on ENSO [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2006
The impacts of the tropical Indian and Atlantic Oceans on ENSO are studied using a series of 500 years long GCM simulations, in which the tropical Indian and/or Atlantic Ocean SSTs are fixed. The results indicate that the tropical Indian and/or Atlantic Oceans SST anomalies substantially influence the coupling over the equatorial Pacific.
