WOCE AIMS: Northern Indian Ocean Data Analysis and Synthesis

PI: morrison提案号：9986188这项工作构成了更大的WOCE AIMS计划的一部分。提供资金用于利用WOCE印度洋实验沿I1线收集的数据集进行水团分析。I1线是一条靠近10 n的地带性站线。将与历史数据进行比较，以确定这条线及其所得产品的代表性。卫星数据、海面温度和海平面异常将被用来估计阿拉伯海和孟加拉湾的热量收支。还将利用卫星数据和模式输出估计第11段的运输时间序列。预计这一努力将在理解海洋在季风年际变化中的作用方面迈出重要的第一步。

PI: MorrisonProposal Number: 9986188This work forms part of the larger WOCE AIMS program. Funds are provided for water mass analysis using data sets collected by during the WOCE Indian Ocean Experiment along line I1, a zonal line of stations near 10 N. Comparisons with historical data will be used to determine how representative this line and products derived from it are. Satellite data, sea surface temperatures and sea level anomalies, will be used to estimate heat budgets for the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal. Time series of transport across section I1 will also be estimated using satellite data and model output. It is anticipated that this effort will produce a first important step in understanding the ocean's role in monsoon interannual variability.
