Coastal and Submesoscale Process Studies for ASIRI and Data Serving for ASIRI Participants

Abstract

The long-term goal is 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 in the Bay of Bengal. This is to understand the ocean s contribution to variability of the monsoons on intra-seasonal time scales.
