Abstract

A composite histogram method is used objectively to derive sea-surface temperature distribution over the Arabian Sea and parts of the Indian Ocean. Nimbus III night-time high resolution infrared data for the first six days in November 1969 were selected to make a set of three-day composite charts. Satellite-derived sea-surface temperature distribution exhibited some thermal structure over. the Arabian Sea which was first noticed during the International Indian Ocean Expedition. Over most of the Arabian Sea region, the observed temperature change was about I degree Kelvin from one three-day period to the next.
