The Indian Ocean represents a part of the global Ocean that has been less studied by modern oceanography than the Atlantic and Pacific parts. This is remarkable, since the Indian Ocean was subject to much historic exploration through navigators from Asia, India, the Middle East and lastly from Europe. This unique, comprehensive reference set on the Indian Ocean, covers all oceanographical aspects with its physics, chemistry, biology and geology in 21 peer-reviewed expert-written chapters. Besides the well-ground basis on the Ocean’s characteristics and a wealth of data, some unique features presented are the monsoon - the biennial reversal of winds and the resultant surface circulation; the tropical and sub-tropical jet streams, namely the Somali current, the Agulhas current and the Leevwin current; the oxygen-poor intermediate waters in its northern part which significantly contribute several green house gases to the atmosphere, for example, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane and dimethyl sulphide; its exhaustive coral reefs and mangrove vegetation; and the polymetallic nodules at its depths and its other mineral resources. Moreover, an analysis is provided of the anthropogenic contributions and their impacts on the health of the Indian Ocean; and that of estuary environments of important rivers of the 15 littoral countries. Intended for research scientists, professionals and students working in physical, chemical and geological oceanography.

The Indian Ocean: Basics of Marine Geology, Physics and Chemistry begins with a short introduction to the and origin of water and formation of oceans on Earth. This is followed by the history of Oceanography / Marine Sciences, including international and Indian scenarios. In subsequent chapters marine instruments, sampling equipment, coastal features, offshore and deep-sea feature, and structures are discussed. Oceanic volcanism, formation of different rocks and geotectonics (continental drift, plate tectonics, seafloor spreading) are detailed, as these play important roles in the evolution of Earth. Sediments of the coasts and deep sea are presented in terms of their classifications, granulometry, chemical compositions and other parameters. The properties of sea water, oceanic circulation and cycling of nutrients form the crux of physical oceanography. The Indian Ocean: Basics of Marine Geology, Physics and Chemistry includes a chapter on the biology of the oceans, and their importance to sediment formation and palaeoceanography form another chapter. A chapter on mineral wealth of the coasts (near- and off-shore) and deep sea is included and contains beach sands, placer deposits, polymetallic nodules, phosphorites, hydrothermal polymetallic sulphides. In addition, the economics of mining these deposits are covered. Information related to harnessing various energies from the sea such as from tides, waves, currents and winds are incorporated. The Indian Ocean also deals with the important aspects of territorial waters, exclusive economic zones and coastal regulation zones together with international maritime laws, rules and regulations. A chapter pertaining to blue economy and green technology of the oceans are also presented. The highlight of the book is the inclusion of details, examples and photographs from Indian coasts and neighboring seas (especially Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal) and the Indian Ocean. Presents the Indian Ocean in the context of global ocean circulation and climate Includes a modern, comprehensive, coherent treatment of the Indian Ocean's physical, chemical and biological oceanography Provides examples and case studies related to India, that can also be applied elsewhere

This volume contains the proceedings of a Symposium held at the University of Kiel, Germany, from 31 March to 6 April, 1971. The Symposium was organized by the Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research (SCOR) and the Marine Productivity section of the International Biological Programme (IBPIPM) with the assistance of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and the International Association of Biological Oceanography (IABO). The aim of the Symposium was to summarize present knowledge of the biology of the Indian Ocean. Twenty-two presentations by invited speakers reviewed the research work carried out during the International Indian Ocean Expedition (lIOE) 1959 -1965, the first cooperative project coordinated by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC). In addition, reports were presented of postexpedition examination of material and of more recent investigations relevant to the aims of the lIOE. In keeping with the aims of "Ecological Studies", the present volume contains much new information and some synthesis, all directed towards obtaining an understanding of the functioning and organization of the ecosystem of the Indian Ocean. The plan of the Symposium was to present the relevant meteorological, physical, chemical and geological background and to follow this with the various aspects of biological oceanography. Because of the uneven stage of development of the different disciplines, the papers included in this volume vary in their analytical level.

A delineation of the boundaries of the subsurface water masses of the Indian Ocean is accomplished by means of temperature-salinity graphs of oceanographic stations which are located along intersecting cross-sectional lines. Circulation and properties of the surface water as well as the deep and bottom water are discussed. (Author).
