Changes In The Duration-Depth Characteristics Of Indian Monsoon Rainfall During 1951-2000
(2010-11-22)Several previous studies have found that various characteristics of the Indian monsoon rainfall have shown secular changes over the past century. In this study, using a gridded (1degree) daily rainfall dataset, we analyse ... -
The Changing Nature Of Rainfall Annual Cycle And The Propagation Characteristics Of The Intraseasonal Oscillations In Flood And Drought Years Of The Indian Monsoon
(2010-08-30)Using a 50-year (1951-2000) gridded (1-degree) daily rainfall data set over the Indian land region, we study two main aspects of the Indian monsoon. The first aspect deals with the changing nature of the rainfall annual ... -
Extratropical Influence on the Sub-seasonal Rainfall Deficit in Indian Summer Monsoon
The variability of Indian monsoon on a range of timescales - seasonal to interannual to decadal - has been studied and characterised extensively over the past several decades. On the mechanistic front, the role ... -
Fine-Scale Structure Of Diurnal Variations Of Indian Monsoon Rainfall : Observational Analysis And Numerical Modeling
(2010-12-31)In the current study, we have presented a systematic analysis of the diurnal cycle of rainfall over the Indian region using satellite observations, and evaluated the ability of the Weather Research and Forecasting Model ... -
Fine-Scale Structure Of The Diurnal Cycle Of Global Tropical Rainfall
(2016-11-16)The fine-scale structure of global (30N-30S) tropical rainfall is characterised using 13 years (1998-2010) of 3-hourly and daily, 0.25-degree Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) 3B42 rainfall product. At the outset, ... -
A Geochemical, Sr isotopic, and numerical study of river water, groundwater, and sea water interaction in the tidally dominated Hooghly (Ganga) estuary
An estuary is a partially enclosed, coastal water body where freshwater from rivers and streams mixes with saline water from the ocean. It is a dynamic system that is characterized by large changes in water chemistry (e.g., ... -
Scaling Characteristics Of Tropical Rainfall
(2016-11-15)We study the space-time characteristics of global tropical rainfall. The data used is from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and spans the years 2000-2009. Using anomaly fields constructed by removing a single ... -
Temporal Persistence and Spatial Coherence of Tropical Rainfall
(2018-01-01)The work presented in the thesis focuses on systematically documenting the multi scale nature of the temporal persistence and spatial coherence of tropical rainfall. There are three parts to the thesis: The first two parts ...
