Abstract

Surface marine mcteorological and solar radiation data collected during Monsoon-77 from USSR four ship stationary polygons are made use of to describe the space-time variability of surface atmospheric layer characteristics and the ocean surface heat budget components at selected areas of north Indian Ocean. Significant differences in the characteristics of heat budget components during the onset and progress of summer monsoon are noticed. Spatial non-homogeneity in the energy feed to the monsoonal flow from the ocean surface is highlighted. Energy input to the atmosphere from ocean during disturbed weather is found to be approximately double the corresponding value during fair weather period.
