Title: Satellite Surveillance of Upwelling Along the East Coast of India
Abstract: Upwelling process is allied with the primary productivity along the east coast of India. Coastal upwelling index (CUI) varies from 10–150 m3/s/100m of coastline length and is at its maximum during March and August. Spectral analysis of the CUI shows that the frequency ranges from 0.1–0.2 cycles/day, exhibiting a number of significant energy peaks. The presence of energy frequency ranging from 0.1–0.2 cycles/day is clearly evident especially for the Visakhapatnam and Chennai locations. Seasonal and synoptic variability of upwelling signatures is identified using satellite sea surface temperature during 2000–2003.
