Description 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.
