Abstract

The characteristics of TEJ current during the formative stage and established periods have been studied with the help of data collected during MONEX. The upper air data over the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal and Indian Ocean from MONEX and FGGE ships have been also utilised. It is found that the TEJ current first establishes over the equatorial region between 40-100 E and the later advances northwards. Other features like two axes of the current with cores over the west coast of India, northward extent and level of maximum wind characteristics have been examined in detail.
