Description An analysis of acoustic characteristics of a cold core eddy in the Bay of Bengal reveals that the eddy introduces in sound-speEd. by about 10 ms-1. The depth of deep sound channel axis beneath eddy remains constant whereas thickness of surface duct reduces by about 20 m across the eddy. Simulation studies showed that the rays passing through the eddy undergoes a reduction in the path length thereby reducing the travel time. Travel time delay causEd. by the eddy is of the order of 200 milliseconds
