Scientific paper

We describe the dynamics of the formation of an elevated land plume over the Arabian Sea and northern Indian Ocean observed during the 1999 Indian Ocean Experiment (INDOEX). The presence of the elevated plume above the marine boundary layer for a depth of about 2000 m could be inferred from the thermodynamic profiles of the lower troposphere obtained from research vessels in 1997, 1998, and 1999, and in the lidar data obtained from aircraft during the INDOEX. Formation of the elevated plume was investigated further using a three-dimensional high-resolution mesoscale modeling system. The plume extends for hundreds of kilometers and its strength and coherence is influenced by the diurnal variation of the upwind continental boundary layer.
