Description:

This study investigates basin and regional ‐scale eddy (turbulent) ‐induced heat and salt transport associated with mesoscale eddies of the Bay of Bengal (BOB). A high level of eddy ‐induced transport is found in four subregions: the western boundary of the northern BOB (NB), the western BOB (WB), the southwestern BOB near Sri Lanka (SWB), and the southeastern BOB (SEB). The main seasons foreddy ‐induced heat transport in the NB and SWB are identi ﬁed as the presummer (March to April) and summer monsoon (May to September) seasons, whereas the postsummer monsoon season (October to November) is the main season for the WB and SEB. It is found that not only meridional but also zonaleddy ‐induced transport is signi ﬁcant, due to the semienclosed nature of the BOB, which restricts poleward transport in the northern part of the bay. An analysis of upper ‐layer eddy energetics reveals that the
