Dynamics of river plumes in the Bay of Bengal
The Bay of Bengal (BoB) receives a large amount of freshwater through runoff from sev- eral rivers along its border. This large freshwater gain has severe implications on the dynamics and thermodynamics of the BoB as ... -
Investigation of sea level anomalies along the Indian coastline using tide gauge data: a physics-guided machine learning approach
The Indian coastline falls within low-elevation coastal zones that are densely populated. Recent observations indicate, with high confidence, that the rate of sea level rise in the In- dian Ocean has been accelerating ... -
Role of buoyancy in driving upper ocean mixing across timescales
This thesis explores the response of the upper ocean to surface buoyancy fluxes on different timescales using theory, numerical simulations and observation-based datasets. First, we investigate the role of evaporation in ...
