Effects of aerosols and atmospheric boundary layer dynamics on refractive index fluctuations: implications for Free-Space Optical communication
Laser communication through atmospheric channels is an emerging wireless technology, commonly known as Free-Space Optical (FSO) communication. It facilitates unprecedented channel capacity and very large bandwidth, favouring ... -
Energetics of monsoon variability over the last 22,000 years
The interpretation of proxies of paleo monsoons has been based primarily on changes in incident solar radiation. The role of feedbacks has not been examined in depth. In this thesis, we have used a diagnostic model of ... -
Impact of Atmospheric Aerosols on Free-Space Optical Communication Systems
Free–space optical (FSO) communication is a wireless technology with an unguided laser signal carrying a large volume of data through the atmosphere. Numerous advantages such as higher bandwidth, high security, easy ... -
Intraseasonal Variability in Aquaplanet Configuration of Community Atmosphere Model
The Intraseasonal Oscillation (ISO) plays an important role to modulate deep convective activity in the tropical region. In this thesis, I aim to understand the role of land and warm oceans in ISO, using a general ... -
Moist and Dry Dynamics in Shallow Water and General Circulation Models
Various aspects of dry and moist atmospheric dynamics are explored through systems of varying complexity, ranging from a 2-D shallow water model to a more complex 3-D general circulation model. First, we examine the response ... -
Physical controls of chlorophyll distribution in the North Indian Ocean
The north Indian Ocean is one of the highly productive regions among the tropical oceans. Being a prominent monsoon regime, the basin exists as a highly dynamic region charac- terised by intense mixing and upwelling and ... -
Space-time variability of near-surface salinity in the Bay of Bengal
Freshwater from monsoon rain and rivers leads to a 5-10 m deep low-salinity layer in the north Bay of Bengal from August to February. The thin fresh layer, with strong stratification at its base, is highly responsive to ...
