Description |
Direct current measurements made during the onset and termination of SW monsoon indicate wide fluctuations in space and time. The nearshore current decreases in magnitude from the onset to the termination of the monsoon. The resultant surface current over a tidal cycle is observed to flow parallel to the coast directed southeastward off Muttam Point in the Arabian Sea, east to southeastward in the area south of Cape Comorin in the Indian Ocean and northeastward parallel to the coast line in the area off Manappad Point in the Bay of Bengal
