Link Between Equatorial Wind Anomalies and Intraseasonal Eddies in the Northeastern Bay of Bengal

Abstract

Equatorial wind anomalies lead to strong intraseasonal subsurface flows cross the Preparis Channel by Kelvin wave (KW) propagation • The seasonality of surface response to the KW-associated subsurface flow is affected by the stratification • The accumulated transport caused by the KW-associated subsurface flow plays a vital role in the eddy generation
