Physical Oceanography
Grade: A
Course Instructor: Dr Joy Merwin Monteiro
Course Overview
In my Physical Oceanography course, I examined various ocean dynamics, including temperature and salinity measurements, and large-scale ocean circulation. The course covered seawater thermodynamics, sea ice formation, and deep water formation. I also studied ocean fluid dynamics, focusing on inertial oscillations, boundary layers, Ekman pumping, and deep ocean circulation, including the unique patterns of the Indian Ocean.
