Isotopic investigation of the moisture transport processes over the Bay of Bengal

To study the atmospheric moisture transport processes from the source to a receiver region, isotopic analysis of rainwater from Port Blair (as source region), the Andaman Islands, Bay of Bengal has been carried out. In addition to the island site, rainwater collected at three sites on the Indian mainland (as receiver region) namely Nagpur, Kolkata, and Tezpur has also been isotopically analyzed. We present a daily variation of long-term...
