The second campaign of the Arabian Sea Monsoon Experiment (ARMEX-II) was conducted in two phases viz., March–April and May–June
2003. In the present work, the buoy and ocean research vessel data collected during the second phase of ARMEX-II have been
analysed to bring out the characteristic features of monsoon onset. The results have shown that the thermodynamical features
such as build up of lower tropospheric instability and increased height of zero degree isotherm occurred about a week before
the monsoon onset over Kerala and adjoining southeast Arabian Sea. There was a sharp fall in the temperature difference between
850 and 500 hPa, and the height of zero degree isotherm about 2–3 days before the monsoon onset. The flux of sensible heat
was positive (sea to air) over south Arabian Sea during the onset phase. Over the Bay of Bengal higher negative (air to sea)
values of sensible flux prevailed before the monsoon onset which became less negative with the advance of monsoon over that
region.
The pre-onset period was characterized by large sea surface temperature (SST) gradient over the Arabian Sea with rapid decrease
towards north of the warm pool region. The buoy observations have shown that SST remained close to 30.5°C in the warm pool
region during the pre-onset period in 2003 but only 2–3 degrees away (north of this region) SSTs were as low as 28.5–29°C.
An interesting aspect of sea level pressure (SLP) variability over the Indian seas during the onset phase of summer monsoon
2003 was undoubtedly, the highest SLP in the warm pool region inspite of very high SSTs. 相似文献

In this study, we elucidate the temporal characteristics of the onset and withdrawal of the Indian southwest monsoon, making
use of the model integration and daily analyses of the National Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting, India. The onset
of the Indian southwest monsoon over the Bay of Bengal is discernable by a gradual increase in the adiabatic generation of
kinetic energy, while over the Arabian Sea it is first noticeable by a steep and abrupt increase of generation. The horizontal
transport of heat indicates a convergence regime over the Bay of Bengal prior to onset, while over the Arabian Sea a convergence
regime is indicated by a change from the divergence to the convergence regime. The withdrawal of the southwest monsoon is
characterized by the horizontal transport of heat and moisture that evince a transition from the convergence to divergence
regime; similarly, diabatic heating noticed during the active period changes to cooling. The withdrawal over the Arabian Sea
is characterized by the divergence regime of the horizontal transport of moisture. This change precedes even the circulation
changes over northwest India, which may be regarded as a precursor. The withdrawal is further supported by a monotonic decrease
in the net tropospheric moisture over the Arabian Sea, followed by a similar change at land locations. 相似文献

In this study, the possible linkage between summer monsoon rainfall over India and surface meteorological fields (basic fields
and heat budget components) over monsoon region (30‡E-120‡E, 30‡S30‡N) during the pre-monsoon month of May and summer monsoon
season (June to September) are examined. For this purpose, monthly surface meteorological fields anomaly are analyzed for
42 years (1958-1999) using reanalysis data of NCEP/NCAR (National Center for Environmental Prediction/National Center for
Atmospheric Research). The statistical significance of the anomaly (difference) between the surplus and deficient monsoon
years in the surface meteorological fields are also examined by Student’s t-test at 95% confidence level.
Significant negative anomalies of mean sea level pressure are observed over India, Arabian Sea and Arabian Peninsular in the
pre-monsoon month of May and monsoon season. Significant positive anomalies in the zonal and meridional wind (at 2 m) in the
month of May are observed in the west Arabian Sea off Somali coast and for monsoon season it is in the central Arabian Sea
that extends up to Somalia. Significant positive anomalies of the surface temperature and air temperature (at 2 m) in the
month of May are observed over north India and adjoining Pakistan and Afghanistan region. During monsoon season this region
is replaced by significant negative anomalies. In the month of May, significant positive anomalies of cloud amount are observed
over Somali coast, north Bay of Bengal and adjoining West Bengal and Bangladesh. During monsoon season, cloud amount shows
positive anomalies over NW India and north Arabian Sea.
There is overall reduction in the incoming shortwave radiation flux during surplus monsoon years. A higher magnitude of latent
heat flux is also found in surplus monsoon years for the month of May as well as the monsoon season. The significant positive
anomaly of latent heat flux in May, observed over southwest Arabian Sea, may be considered as an advance indicator of the
possible behavior of the subsequent monsoon season. The distribution of net heat flux is predominantly negative over eastern
Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and Indian Ocean. Anomaly between the two extreme monsoon years in post 1980 (i.e., 1988 and 1987)
shows that shortwave flux, latent heat flux and net heat flux indicate reversal in sign, particularly in south Indian Ocean.
Variations of the heat budget components over four smaller sectors of Indian seas, namely Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and west
Indian Ocean and east Indian Ocean show that a small sector of Arabian Sea is most dominant during May and other sectors showing
reversal in sign of latent heat flux during monsoon season. 相似文献

Weakening of lower tropospheric temperature gradient between Indian landmass and neighbouring oceans and its impact on Indian monsoon 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The study shows that in the scenario of global warming temperature gradient (TG) between Indian landmass and Arabian Sea/Bay
of Bengal is significantly decreasing in the lower troposphere with maxima around 850 hPa. TG during pre-monsoon (March to
May) is reducing at a significant rate of 0.036°/year (Arabian Sea) and 0.030°/year (Bay of Bengal). The above alarming results
are based on sixty years (1948–2007) of daily temperature and wind data extracted from CDAS-NCEP/NCAR reanalysis datasets.
TG based on ERA-40 data also indicates a decreasing trend of 0.0229°/year and 0.0397°/year for Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal
respectively. As TG is not governed by any type of significant oscillation, there is a possibility of TG tending to zero.
It is further observed that the rate of warming over the oceans is more than that over the land which has resulted into the
weakening of TG. Pre-monsoon TG has significant correlations with
Except AISMR, the decreasing trends observed in all the above parameters are significant. All India rainfall for July and
August together shows a significant decreasing trend of 0.995mm/year. Reducing number of depressions and cyclonic storms and
increasing number of break days during monsoon over India are the reflections of the weakening of TG. 相似文献

In order to investigate how monsoons influence biogeochemical fluxes in the ocean, twelve time-series sediment traps were
deployed at six locations in the northern Indian Ocean. In this paper we present particle flux data collected during May 1986
to November 1991 and November 1987 to November 1992 in the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal respectively. Particle fluxes were
high during both the SW and NE monsoons in the Arabian Sea as well as in the Bay of Bengal. The mechanisms of particle production
and transport, however, differ in both the regions.
In the Arabian Sea, average annual fluxes are over 50gm-2y-1 in the western Arabian Sea and less than 27gm-2 y-1 in the central part. Biogenic matter is dominant at sites located near upwelling centers, and is less degraded during peak
flux periods. High particle fluxes in the offshore areas of the Arabian Sea are caused by injection of nutrients into the
euphotic zone due to wind-induced mixed layer deepening. In the Bay of Bengal, average annual fluxes are highest in the central
Bay of Bengal (over
50gm-2y-1) and are least in the southern part of the Bay (37gm-2y-1). Particle flux patterns coincide with freshwater discharge patterns of the Ganges-Brahmaputra river system. Opal/carbonate
and organic carbon/carbonate carbon ratios increase during the SW monsoon due to variations in salinity and productivity patterns
in the surface waters as a result of increased freshwater and nutrient input from rivers.
Comparison of S years data show that fluxes of biogenic and lithogenic particulate matter are higher in the Bay of Bengal
even though the Arabian Sea is considered to be more productive. Our results indicate that in the northern Indian Ocean interannual
variability in organic carbon flux is directly related to the strength and intensity of the SW monsoon while its transfer
from the upper layers to the deep sea is partly controlled by input of lithogenic matter from adjacent continents. 相似文献

In this paper satellite-derived radiative energy budget such as shortwave radiative heating, longwave radiative heating and net radiation balance have been studied for the post-onset phase of summer monsoon 1979. Since clouds play an important role in determining diabatic heating field as well as being a reflection of status of the monsoon itself, the day to day evolution of clouds from TIROS-N satellite has been made. Satellite-derived radiative heating rates from surface to 100 hPa were computed for each 100 hPa thickness layer. These heating rates were then compared with the observed latitudinal distribution of total radiative heating rates over the domain of the study. From the results of our study it was found that the characteristic features such as net radiative heating rates of the order of 0.2°C/day at upper tropospheric layer (100–200 hPa) and cooling throughout the lower tropospheric layers with relatively less cooling between 500–700 hPa layer observed in a case of satellite-derived radiative energy budget agree well with the characteristic features of observational radiative energy budget over the domain of the study. Therefore, it is suggested that radiative energy budget derived from satellite observations can be used with great potential and confidence for the evolution of the complete life cycle of the monsoon over the Indian region for different years. 相似文献

A cyclone genesis parameter, termed the genesis potential parameter (GPP), for the Indian Sea is proposed. The parameter is
defined as the product of four variables, namely vorticity at 850 hPa, middle tropospheric relative humidity, middle tropospheric
instability, and the inverse of vertical wind shear. The variables are calculated using the National Centers for Environmental
Prediction (NCEP), USA, reanalysis data, averaged within a circle of 2.5° radius around the centre of cyclonic system. The
parameter is tested with a sample dataset of 35 nondeveloping and developing low-pressure systems that formed over the Indian
Sea during the period 1995–2005. The result shows that there is a distinction between GPP values for nondeveloping and developing
systems in more than 85% cases. The composite GPP value is found to be around three to five times greater for developing systems
than for nondeveloping systems. The analysis of the parameter at early development stage of a cyclonic storm appears to provide
a useful predictive signal for intensification of the system. 相似文献

Characteristics of trace gases (O3, CO, CO2, CH4 and N2O) and aerosols (particle size of 2.5 micron) were studied over the Arabian Sea, equatorial Indian Ocean and southwest part
of the Bay of Bengal during the monsoon transition period (October–November, 2004). Flow of pollutants is expected from south
and southeast Asia during the monsoonal transition period due to the patterns of wind flow which are different from the monsoon
period. This is the first detailed report on aerosols and trace gases during the sampled period as the earlier Bay of Bengal
Experiment (BOBMEX), Arabian Sea Monsoon Experiment (ARMEX) and Indian Ocean Experiments (INDOEX) were during monsoon seasons.
The significant observations during the transition period include: (i) low ozone concentration of the order of 5 ppbv around
the equator, (ii) high concentrations of CO2, CH4 and N2O and (iii) variations in PM2.5 of 5–20μg/m3. 相似文献

Detailed analysis of the surface winds over the Indian Ocean derived from ERS-1 scatterometer data during the years 1993 and
1994 has been used to understand and unambiguously identify the onset phase of south-west monsoon. Five day (pentad) averaged
wind vectors for the period April to June during both years have been examined to study the exact reversal of wind direction
as well as the increase in wind speed over the Arabian Sea in relation to the onset of monsoon over the Indian west coast
(Kerala). The related upper level humidity available from other satellites has also been analysed.
The results of our analysis clearly show a consistent dramatic reversal in wind direction over the western Arabian Sea three
weeks in advance of the onset of monsoon. The wind speed shows a large increase coinciding with the onset of monsoon. These
findings together show the dominant role of sea surface winds in establishing the monsoon circulation. The study confirms
that the cross equatorial current phenomenon becomes more important after the onset of monsoon. 相似文献

The intra-seasonal variability observed in the salinity field of the upper layers at a few locations in the east central Arabian
Sea and the northern Bay of Bengal during the summer monsoon seasons of 1977 and 1979 is documented with the aid of short
time series (1–2 weeks) of salinity measurements made from USSR and Indian ships deployed during MONSOON-77 (1977) and MONEX-79
(1979) field experiments. In the Arabian Sea a typical subsurface maxima observed beneath the mixed layer base either disappeared
or considerably weakened due to strong vertical mixing caused by the monsoonal forcing. In the northern Bay of Bengal the
salinity variability in the top 30 m water column was rapid and appeared to be influenced by large amounts of fresh water
from rain and probably from the major adjoining rivers. Some simple diagnostic calculations are presented to assess the relative
importance of various processes which control the observed salinity variability. 相似文献

The statistical relationship between the summer monsoon rainfall over all India, northwest India and peninsular India, onset
dates of monsoon and the index of mid latitude, (35° to 70°N) meridional circulation at 500 hPa level over different sectors
and hemisphere based on 19 years (1971–1989) data, have been examined. The results indicate that (i) the summer monsoon rainfalls
over all India, northwest India and peninsular India show a significant inverse relationship with the strength of meridional
index during previous January over sector 45°W to 90°E. (ii) The summer monsoon rainfalls over all India and peninsular India
show a significant inverse relationship with the strength of meridional index during previous December over sector 90°E to
160°E, (iii) The summer monsoon rainfall over northwest India shows a significant direct relationship with the meridional
index during previous May over sector 160°E to 45°W.
Significant negative relationships are also observed between the meridional circulation indices of previous October (sector
3 and 4), previous December (sectors 1, 3 and 4), previous winter season (sector 3 and 4) and the onset dates of summer monsoon
over India. The meridional circulation index thus can have some possible use for long range forecasting of monsoon rainfall
over all India, northwest India and peninsular India, as well as the onset dates of monsoon. 相似文献

The role of intraseasonal oscillations (ISOs) in modulating synoptic and interannual variations of surface winds over the
Indian monsoon region is studied using daily averaged National Centers for Environmental Prediction/National Centre for Atmospheric
Research (NCEP/NCAR) reanalyses for the period 1987–1996. Two dominant ISOs are found in all years, with a period between
30–60 days and 10–20 days respectively. Although the ISOs themselves explain only about 10–25% of the daily variance, the
spatial structure of variance of the ISOs is found to be nearly identical to that of high frequency activity (synoptic disturbances),
indicating a significant control by the ISOs in determining the synoptic variations. Zonal and meridional propagation characteristics
of the two modes and their interannual variability are studied in detail.
The synoptic structure of the 30–60 day mode is similar in all years and is shown to be intimately related to the strong (‘active’)
or weak (‘break’) phases of the Indian summer monsoon circulation. The peak (trough) phase of the mode in the north Bay of
Bengal corresponds to the ‘active’ (‘break’) phase of monsoon strengthening (weakening) the entire large scale monsoon circulation.
The ISOs modulate synoptic activity through the intensification or weakening of the large scale monsoon flow (monsoon trough).
The peak wind anomalies associated with these ISOs could be as large as 30% of the seasonal mean winds in many regions. The
vorticity pattern associated with the 30–60 day mode has a bi-modal meridional structure similar to the one associated with
the seasonal mean winds but with a smaller meridional scale. The spatial structure of the 30–60 day mode is consistent with
fluctuations of the tropical convergence zone (TCZ) between one continental and an equatorial Indian Ocean position. The 10–20
day mode has maximum amplitude in the north Bay of Bengal, where it is comparable to that of the 30–60 day mode. Elsewhere
in the Indian Ocean, this mode is almost always weaker than the 30–60 day mode. In the Bay of Bengal region, the wind curl
anomalies associated with the peak phases of the ISOs could be as large as 50% of the seasonal mean wind curl. Hence, ISOs
in this region could drive significant ISOs in the ocean and might influence the seasonal mean currents in the Bay.
On the interannual time scale, the NCEP/NCAR reanalysed wind stress is compared with the Florida State University monthly
mean stress. The seasonal mean stress as well as interannual standard deviation of monthly stress from the two analyses agree
well, indicating absence of any serious systematic bias in the NCEP/NCAR reanalysed winds. It is also found that the composite
structure of the 30–60 day mode is strikingly similar to the dominant mode of interannual variability of the seasonal mean
winds indicating a strong link between the ISOs and the seasonal mean. The ISO influences the seasonal mean and its interannual
variability either through increased/decreased residence time of the TCZ in the continental position or through occurrence
of stronger/weaker active/break spells. Thus, the ISOs seem to modulate all variability in this region from synoptic to interannual
scales. 相似文献

This study investigates the forecast skill and predictability of various indices of south Asian monsoon as well as the subdivisions of the Indian subcontinent during JJAS season for the time domain of 2001–2013 using NCEP CFSv2 output. It has been observed that the daily mean climatology of precipitation over the land points of India is underestimated in the model forecast as compared to observation. The monthly model bias of precipitation shows the dry bias over the land points of India and also over the Bay of Bengal, whereas the Himalayan and Arabian Sea regions show the wet bias. We have divided the Indian landmass into five subdivisions namely central India, southern India, Western Ghat, northeast and southern Bay of Bengal regions based on the spatial variation of observed mean precipitation in JJAS season. The underestimation over the land points of India during mature phase was originated from the central India, southern Bay of Bengal, southern India and Western Ghat regions. The error growth in June forecast is slower as compared to July forecast in all the regions. The predictability error also grows slowly in June forecast as compared to July forecast in most of the regions. The doubling time of predictability error was estimated to be in the range of 3–5 days for all the regions. Southern India and Western Ghats are more predictable in the July forecast as compared to June forecast, whereas IMR, northeast, central India and southern Bay of Bengal regions have the opposite nature. 相似文献

Decoupling of the East Asian summer monsoon and Indian summer monsoon between 20 and 17 ka 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Marine Oxygen Isotope Stage (MIS) 2, with its profound environmental and climatic changes from before the last glacial maximum (LGM) to the last deglaciation, is an ideal period for understanding the evolution of the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) and Indian summer monsoon (ISM), two Asian monsoon sub-systems. With 875 stable oxygen isotope ratios and 43 230Th dates from stalagmites in Sanxing Cave, southwestern China, we construct and interpret a new, replicated, Asian summer monsoon (ASM) record covering 30.9–9.7 ka with decadal resolution. δ18O records from this site and other reported Chinese caves display similar long-term orbitally dominated trends and synchronous millennial-scale strong and weak monsoonal events associated with climate changes in high northern latitudes. Interestingly, Sanxing δ18O and Arabian Sea records show a weakening ISM from 22 to 17 ka, while the Hulu and Qingtian records from East and Central China express a 3-ka intensifying EASM from 20 to 17 ka. This decoupling between EASM and ISM may be due to different sensitivities of the two ASM sub-systems in response to internal feedback mechanisms associated with the complex geographical or land-ocean configurations. 相似文献

A brief summary of Dr. G. V. Rao's research interests is presented. Many of his earlier studies were in conjunction with the
summer Monsoon Experiment of 1979 (MONEX-79). These included: 1) the structure of the Somali jet based on aerial observations;
2) sea-level air trajectories over the equatorial Indian Ocean; 3) structural features of the east African low-level flow;
4) effects of Indian Ocean surface temperature anomaly patterns on the summer monsoon circulations; 5) structures of the monsoon
low-level flow over the Arabian Sea; 6) characteristics and momentum-flux budgets of the Arabian Sea convective bands; and
7) evaporation and precipitation over the Arabian Sea during the monsoon seasons. Dr. Rao's research efforts in recent years
had focused on case studies of mesocyclones spawned by tropical cyclones (TCs) in Florida using Doppler radar data and a mesoscale
numerical model. These included: 1) research on tornadic mesocyclones spawned by TC Earl in 1998; 2) documentation of subtle
differences between tornadic and non-tornadic mesocyclones in TC Floyd in 1999; and 3) numerical simulation of the tornadic
environment observed in peninsular Florida during TC Earl in 1998. Preliminary findings show that the supercells' cold pools
interacted with an existing boundary resulting in increased baroclinicity and horizontal vorticity, and a maximization of
the tornado production potential by the updrafts. The model successfully simulated the mesoscale features of the mesocyclones
and the tornadic environment observed during TC Earl. A 24 h simulation of accumulated rainfall within the inner domain agreed
well with the observed precipitation pattern over the region. 相似文献

Arabian Sea sediments record changes in the upwelling system off Arabia, which is driven by the monsoon circulation system over the NW Indian Ocean. In accordance with climate models, and differing from other large upwelling areas of the tropical ocean, a 500,000-yr record of productivity at ODP Site 723 shows consistently stronger upwelling during interglaciations than during glaciations. Sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) reconstructed from the alkenone unsaturation index (UK′37) are high (up to 27°C) during interglaciations and low (22-24°C) during glaciations, indicating a glacial-interglacial temperature change of >3°C in spite of the dampening effect of enhanced or weakened upwelling. The increased productivity is attributed to stronger monsoon winds during interglacial times relative to glacial times, whereas the difference in SSTs must be unrelated to upwelling and to the summer monsoon intensity. The winter (NE) monsoon was more effective in cooling the Arabian Sea during glaciations then it is now. 相似文献
