Abstract

In this study moisture incursion in the Arabian Sea has been monitored during the onset, active and withdrawal phase of the summer monsoon (May-Sept 1984) using sea surface temperature anomalies This study shows that tongue of moist air reached south. Peninsula about 20 days ahead of the normal onset of monsoon and continued to be ahead by 12-14 day even after Its setting.
