hi vidya.
1. Is it the Global Ocean or the Indian Ocean?
2. Is it a review or data analysis work you are hoping to do?
3. Climatic changes.. can be longgg term like based on paleo-oceanography
or are you interested in topics like short term climate variability, global
warming, carbon flux variability..
