Seasonal variability of the Bay of Bengal circulation inferred from TOPEX/Poseidon altimetry

The circulation in the interior of the Bay of Bengal and of its western boundary current, the East Indian Coastal Current, is inferred from historical ship drift data and from TOPEX/Poseidon altimeter data. The boundary current shows a strong seasonal variability with reversals twice per year that l...
