Coastal and Submesoscale Process Studies for ASIRI

Abstract

To determine the role of upper ocean processes, including mixing and advection, on freshwater dispersal, sea surface temperature, density structure, and air-sea heat fluxes, with the objective of understanding ocean s contribution to variability of the monsoons on intra-seasonal time scales in the Bay of Bengal.
