Question 15Discuss factors responsible for rapid warming of Indian Ocean and its multi-dimensional impactsGS1GS1

"The tropical Indian Ocean is likely to be in a near-permanent heatwave state." Discuss the factors responsible for the rapid warming of the Indian Ocean along with its multi-dimensional impacts.

Introduction

As per World Meteorological Organization (WMO), Indian Ocean has seen average rise in temp scale of 1.1°C since 1991.

Factors responsible for rapid warming: (1) Influence of Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD). (2) El-Nino common oscillation (ENSO) has led to rise of Indian Ocean temperature. (3) melting of glaciers and hence

(6) Change in water-current circulation. (7) Carbon storage and sink. (8) Global warming due to industrial carbon. (9) Increased shipping capacity & hence effects. Multi-dimensional impact: (1) Migration and refugee crisis. (2) Charged in social calendar (p): festivals
