Indian Ocean Dipole Index based on INCOIS-GODAS SST analysis and Monthly climatology of OISST (Reynolds sst;constructed using 1981-2010 data).
Figure Indian Ocean Dipole mode Index (DMI). The DMI is defined as the difference between the SST anomalies (ºC) of Western (10ºS-10ºN & 50ºE-70ºE) and Eastern (10ºS-0ºN & 90ºE-110ºE) Equatorial Indian Ocean regions (WEST-EAST).
SST and SST anomalies over different regions of IOD for the last 12 months.
