Recent studies have shown that coastal and shelf cephalopod populations have increased
globally over the last six decades. Although cephalopod landings are dominated by the …

Over the past decade, our understanding of the Indian Ocean has advanced through
concerted efforts toward measuring the ocean circulation and air–sea exchanges, detecting …

In response to the Indian Monsoon freshwater forcing, the Bay of Bengal exhibits a very
strong seasonal cycle in sea surface salinity (SSS), especially near the mouths of the …

Surface cooling induced by tropical cyclones (TCs) is about three times larger during
premonsoon than during postmonsoon season in the Bay of Bengal. We investigate …

Monsoon rain and rivers bring large freshwater input to the Northern Bay of Bengal (BoB),
yielding low Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) after the monsoon. The resulting sharp upper-ocean …

The orbital-scale timing of South Asian monsoon (SAM) precipitation is poorly understood.
Here we present new SST and seawater δ18O (δ18Osw) records from the Bay of Bengal …

A thin layer of fresh water from summer monsoon rain and river runoff in the Bay of Bengal
(BoB) has profound influence on air‐sea interaction across the south Asian region, but the …

An in situ gridded data of salinity, comprising Argo and CTD profiles, has been used to study
the interannual variability of near‐surface salinity (within 30 m from sea surface) in the Bay …

Individual and combined effects of rainfall and river discharge on the Bay of Bengal (BoB) is
investigated using an Ocean General Circulation Model. A set of four sensitivity experiments …

Freshwater discharge to the coastal ocean is a fundamental component of the global water
cycle. It can impact coastal sea level over a broad range of spatial and temporal scales …
