Impact of river runoff into the ocean on climate in a coupled model
In order to study the impact of global runoff, sensitivity experiment (NoRiv) was carried out
by shutting down the entire runoff into the ocean for a period of 200 years. The changes in
NoRiv, compared to the reference ...
Multi-Scale Modeling of Moist Convection Over India
Clouds exist on all scales from turbulent processes to global scale and are organized
on all the scales in between. They truly are multi-scale in nature. This makes them a
very challenging simulation problem for atmospheric ...
Short to Medium Range Forecasting Skills of the GFS Model
The reliable prediction of the South Asian monsoon rainfall and its variability is crucial for
various hydrological applications and early warning systems. This study analyzes Global Fore-
cast System (GFS) model generated ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Characteristics of Convective Clouds Over the Indian Monsoon Zone from Weather Radar Data
Deep convective clouds play an important role in global energy balance through vertical transport of water vapor, momentum and energy, altering radiation and also influence hydrological cycle via precipitation. These clouds ...
Simulations of Aerosol Species over the Indian Region: Evaluation and Improvements
Increasing aerosol loading over the south Asian region, holds a potential of, perturbing the south Asian monsoon system and the Himalayan glacial coverage, and thus affecting lives of (1/4)th of the world’s population. ...
Effect of Rainfall and River Discharge on the North Indian Ocean
In the north Indian Ocean, the Bay of Bengal (BoB or bay) and the Eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) receive a huge amount of rainfall during summer. Several rivers along their boundaries discharge enormous amounts of freshwater ...
