The Definition:
IMD -> “… seasonal reversals of the wind direction along the shores of the Indian Ocean, especially in the Arabian Sea, that blow from the southwest during one half of the year and from the northeast during the other half …”

The Coriolis Force• Apparent force due to earth’s rotation• Movement to the right in NH and to the
left in SH• Affects Wind movements• coriolis effect (2-11).mp4

• The Macarena's High
• The Coriolis Force
• The Somali Jet Stream

The Classification Based on their spatial spread
Arabian Sea Branch
Bay of Bengal Branch
Based on the direction of rain bearing winds
South-West Monsoon (SW Monsoon)
North-East Monsoon (NE Monsoon)
Based on the time of the year
the Summer monsoon (May to September)
the Winter monsoon, (October to November)

The Vagaries of Monsoon
• The Jet Stream Effect
• ENSO/La Nina
• The Indian ocean Dipole
• EQINOO

El-Nino/La-Nina/ENSO Abnormal warming/cooling of tropical eastern
pacific
Combines with surface air pressure oscillations
Fall in air pressure over Tahiti – drives the warm Indian Ocean water towards eastern pacific – weakens the trade winds and draws the rain along with it
Southern Oscillation Index (SOI)

Indian Ocean Dipole : Variations in sea surface temperatures b/w western and eastern Indian Ocean
+ve IOD index : Western Indian Ocean warmer than Eastern
Equatorial Indian Ocean Oscillation : Atmospheric component of Indian Ocean Dipole
