BoBBLE
- Bay of Bengal Boundary Layer Experiment
- BoBBLE is a joint India-UK project.
- It seeks to examine the impact of ocean processes in the Bay of Bengal on the monsoon system.
- It is a project funded by the Union Ministry of Earth Sciences and the Natural Environment Research Council of UK.
Key Processes in BoB
1. Southwest Monsoon Current (SMC) is controlled by both local (wind stress curl) and remote (equatorial wave propagation) factors.
2. High Salinity Core (HSC) of the SMC has its origins in the western equatorial Indian Ocean, reaching the BoB via the Somali Current, the Equatorial Undercurrent and the SMC.
3. Seasonal reversals that occur at the Somali Current and SMC junctions act as ‘railroad switches’ diverting water masses to different basins in the northern Indian Ocean.
