摘要

Two independent atlases agree that in the northwest Indian Ocean the sea surface temperatures cool down markedly in the spring and also that they have a significant double seasonal cycle, unlike any other ocean in both cases. Horizontal advection is proposed to play an important part in causing these unusual features to occur.
