Studies on the Annual, Interannual and Climatic Variabilities of Indian Ocean Warm Pool
The recurrent warming of oceans is an important process in maintaining the climate of earth. Ocean temperature is an important climatic indicator among others such as atmospheric humidity, tropospheric temperature, sea level, ocean heat content, temperature over land, sea ice etc. The oceans absorb...

The important point here is the carrying capacity of the oceans and its future behavioral patterns to the present warming trend.Warm pools represent upper ocean temperatures and act as an index for climate change.
