ESSO - Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services

ABOUT THE TALK:

The Madden-Julian Oscillation a little understood tropical weather phenomenon which propagates through the tropical Oceans causes intense winds over a small area of the eastern Indian Ocean. As a result, during the months of December to April, the Indian Ocean routinely gains or loses ~3 trillion tons of water from the Pacific Ocean every ~30 to 80 days accompanied by a sea level rise or fall of ~4 cm. This accounts for ~ 30% of the total sea-level change during the period. Not only does this influence the heat budget but it also influences the polar motion of the Earth and the length of the day, the variability of which is of utmost importance to the accuracy of the Global Positioning System.
