Bay of Bengal/Air-Sea Interaction Research Initiative (ASIRI)
• Air-Sea Interaction Research Initiatives -U.S. Office of Naval Research
• Integrated with Naval Research Laboratory program
• Coordinated with Sri Lanka • Closely coordinated with India

Scien&fic Foci • Understanding the processes that govern monsoon ini&a&on
• Be7er understand the coupled physics involved in the monsoon so we might improve the predic&ve weather models
• Role of the ocean in determining monsoon strength
• Impact of the monsoon on the ocean
• Determine the important regions driving the ocean-‐atmosphere coupling (e.g. par&cular areas in the Bay of Bengal)
• Example Programs: Arabian Sea Study, JASMINE, DYNAMO, ITOP

ASIRI-Bay of Bengal goals
• Exploring the conceptual, theoretical, dynamical constructs of air-sea interaction in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) // monsoonal regions
• Understanding the dynamics of the mixed layer
• Flux balances at different stages of the monsoon
• Role of the mesoscale in modifying monsoonal dynamics
• Improved process representation and coupling parameterizations in data assimilative models

Field Program
(A) Autonomous platforms
Conduct a field experiment in the international waters of the Bay of Bengal; utilize model studies to determine critical areas of air-sea interaction . - Structure these model-deployments as hypothesis tests - Structure the process model – sensor choices as hypothesis tests - Develop cooperative cruises to build a multi-stage sample set of the monsoon
