Meeting on Indian Ocean Dynamics

Date & Time: 02nd December, 2015 (1400-1700 IST)

The meeting is organised to discuss about the observational and theoretical developments that brought in the new ideas on Indian Ocean dynamics. The meeting shall begin with seven short talks covering a spectrum of Indian-Ocean physics, particularly dynamics, and its applications to climate and biology. The final presentation will be a key note talk providing the overview and way forward on improving the understanding of the dynamics and physics of the Indian Ocean. The session will end with a short discussion of potential new research themes based on the preceding presentations. The attendance at the meeting is open to all.

Chair - Dr. Michael McPhaden, NOAA, USA
