475-479
Annual and interannual variation of Indian Ocean Warm Pool (IOWP) was studied using satellite and in situ ocean temperature data. IOWP surface area undergoes a strong annual cycle attaining a maximum of 24 x 106km2 during April and minimum of 10 x 106km2 in August. Unlike surface area, warm pool was deeper (90m) during August than in April. Higher vertical extent was found both at eastern equatorial Indian Ocean and south-eastern Arabian Sea. Frequency distribution of temperatures at one degree interval (28-29, 29-30, 30-31) exhibited independent seasonal variations. The interannual variation of IOWP was found to be associated with ENSO events. |
