Book Description
This book describes in detail two kinds of models that simulate the dispersion of radionuclides in the sea. Biases have a strong impact on the predictable skill and the structures of the model predicted patterns in the tropical Atlantic Ocean. These biases and the related effects are presented as well as the atmospheric teleconnections between the tropical Atlantic and the African continent. Special focus is given to recent developments in the nitrogen cycle in the open ocean and the new challenges that have arisen from these advancements. This book also provides a review of the history, geography, and climate of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, as well as the role they play in natural disasters. A review of the tsunami hazard along the coastal area of the Gulf of Bengal is explored and the seismicity of the Indian Ocean area. The Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) and its affects, such as monsoon strength over the Indian subcontinent, climatic extremes and socio-economic hardship throughout the tropical Indian Ocean region are presented. This book considers a selection of statistical time series models to analyze and predict the IOD. Finally, using a data-assimilative model of the North Indian assimilating altimetry, the seasonal and inter-annual variability of the meridional heat fluxes in the Indian Ocean are explored.

Book Description
The ocean evokes the most romantic images of nature. It is the eternally hostile element that has taken a heavy toll for every act of discovery, sometimes in human lives. No wonder there has always been a romantic aura about those who take to the sea, be they pirates, fishermen, sailors, the ocean itself, have or even oceanographers. Their exploits, and provided ample food for thought and poetic inspiration. Clearly, man kind owes much to the ocean for the progress of civilization. There is more to wresting the ocean's secrets from its depths than simply the excitement of struggling with the elements. It is the thrill of ideas, of discoveries made by scientific analysis of oceanic phenomena. There have been quite a few renowned oceanographers who have never set foot aboard ship. All they did was to use the general laws of fluid behavior and mathematical formulas as tools to study the ocean and to predict events. Amazing 'armchair' discoveries of currents and deep sea flows, subsequently confirmed by observations at sea, are fascinat ing. What a scientist feels when uncovering the true behavior of oceanic phenomena in abstract columns of numbers, in long and cumbersome, or sometimes intriguingly simple, mathematical relations, is exhilara tion. My objective has been to bring this delightful esthetic pleasure within everyone's reach - the outcome is this book. It was about twelve years ago when I first recognized the inherent harmony of the theory of currents. I was probably prompted by H.
