The observed enhancement in Chl-a (mg/m3) following the cyclone passage (5-day average) in the post and pre-monsoon seasons in BoB. The translational speed of the closest track points where the bloom occurred in (m/s), the ratio of wind speed to translational speed (WS/TS), and EPV (Ekman Pumping Velocity) as the cyclones reach their maximum intensity (m/s) are also shown in the lower panels.
