  The wind drift motion of the water which is produced by the stress of the wind exerted upon the surface of the ocean is described by Ekmans theory (1905). Using the mean monthly values for the wind stress and SST, seasonal Ekman transport for the Persian Gulf was computed and contoured. The geostrophic winds have combined with the SST to estimate the effect of cooling due to Ekman transport o...

Changes in the color of sea water caused by algal bloom has continuously risen in recent decades. This increase is due to the harmful effects of human activities that allow sea water to change from a normal to an abnormal state. Satellite sensors are the most accessible, cost-effective means of monitoring. They have been allocated to a large number of marine science studies. The MODIS satellite...
