In a study based primarily on satellite-based datasets we showed that these changes were linked to the warming trend over Eurasia and a decline in snow cover over the Himalayan-Tibetan Plateau region. Our recent observations suggest that the warming trend is undermining convective mixing responsible for nutrient inputs during the boreal winter component of the monsoon cycle. More recently, we have been able to combine satellite data with shipboard observations to show the Arabian Sea may be experiencing a loss of phytoplankton biodiversity, with traditional winter-time diatom populations being replaced by unprecedented blooms of the heterotrophic dinoflagellate Noctiluca miliaris . At the moment, it remains unclear whether these changes are related to the warming trend. One of the difficulties is that, unlike the other major ocean basins, long-term shipboard observations in the Arabian Sea are lacking and continue to be a major impedi ment to a better understanding of the relationships between the oceanographic processes and biological productivity as they relate to climate change.
