Abstract:<p>Subtropical South Indian Ocean salinity maxima region plays an important role in transporting temperature anomalies towards north along the isopycnals following geostrophic pathways. In this study, interannual and decadal changes in temperature and salinity at the base of mixed layer during austral winters are investigated for the Argo era. Winter time deep mixed layer allows these Temperature/Salinity (T/S) changes to penetrate to the permanent pycnocline. Interannual changes in the mixed lay… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
