“…In Bay of Bengal & Andaman sea, using in situ measurements, IW of varying period of heights are studied by Hareesh Kumar et al (2002), Murthy (2000), Sarma et al (1991), Antony et al (1985), and the depth of thermocline undergoes an annual cycle (La Fond and Poornachandra Rao 1954), as well as oscillations with periods equal to tidal cycles (Hareesh Kumar et al 2008), and shorter period are also prominent because they occur between the shallow, low-density surface layer, and the denser water below. Vertical oscillations or internal waves by convergence and divergence appear as long bands of alternately smooth and rough water on the surface (La Fond 1961).…”

Sea surface manifestations of internal waves (IW) in the shallow continental shelf waters of North Bay of Bengal have been observed in almost all seasons imaged by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images of ERS1/2 and Envisat ASAR missions during the period 1993-2004. Shoreward propagating short-period IW packets are observed particularly in summer stratified coastal waters Off Chilka region. In summer waters, prominent short-period shoreward propagating internal waves of consecutive imageries of ERS-1/2 SAR (12th and 13th April 1996) are studied. On 4th October 2003, Envisat ASAR imaged strong surface manifestations of huge internal wave group wavelengths and those propagations were discussed in detail. In the research, we also made an attempt for temporal distribution of IW signatures on SAR in North Bay of Bengal.
