Warm Pool : Vertical Structure (salinity)

Shenoi et al., JGR, 1999; Rao et al., QJRMS 1999 Warm Pool Formation Hypothesis: Salinity effects

Mechanisms : Effect of Salinity Fixed Salinity (35psu) Experiment

Mechanisms : Mixed Layer Heat Budget Vialard and Delelcluse, 1998

Mechanisms : Mixed Layer Heat Budget

Mechanisms : Effect of Orography and Winds Net Heat Flux (W/m2) Wind Stress (Pa) Fields averaged over November-February period. What is the impact of this low winter cooling on spring warming ?

Model Experiments NWG_Winter - WIND, air temperature, and specific humidity over SEAS are replaced by mean value over Wbox during Nov-Feb period NWG_March – Same as NWG_winter, but the forcing fields are modified only for the month of March Mechanisms : Effect of Orography and Winds

Mechanisms : Effect of Mountains v/s salinity

Conclusion The formation of the mini warm pool in the Arabian Sea is due to the orographic effects of Sahydris (Western Ghats). Salinity effects are not necessary for its formation. Kurian, J. and P.
