Comparison of microwave radiative transfer models and Retrieval of Humidity using Satellite Microwave Data
Water vapor plays an important role in tropical climate through its impact on Earth’s radiation budget. Accurate knowledge of the spatial and temporal distribution of water vapor is a fundamental requirement for understanding ... -
Diagnostic study of the structure of inter tropical convergence zone in an aquaplanet general circulation model
The Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) is a narrow region of cloudiness and rainfall that has a predominant east–west orientation. In the present study, the response of the ITCZ to latitudinal variation of the sea surface ... -
Radiative effects of aerosols over land and ocean
The last two centuries have witnessed tremendous growth on all fronts (especially industrial) compared to what had occurred in the past thousands of years. This growth brought along, in addition to the awareness of safety ... -
Satellite derived chlorophyll a distribution in the Bay of Bengal during northeast monsoon
The Bay of Bengal is a semi-enclosed tropical ocean basin driven by the monsoon winds. The Bay receives a large quantity of freshwater from river discharges and rainfall, which leads to very low salinity values in the ...
