✦ Synopsis

Daily and zonal (latitudinal belt) averages of heat and momentum fluxes were computed using bulk aerodynamic formdae, from the meteorological parameters measured onboard 'M. S. Thuleland' during the sixth Indian scientific expedition to Antarctica (26th November, 1986 to 22nd March, 1987). Both estimates showed significant variations, the momentum flux showing the largest variation. The maximum values of sensible and latent heat fluxes were observed over the 30"-40" S and 10"20" S zones during the southern summer and fall respectively while the minimum values of latent heat flux were observed in the 60"-70" S zone for both seasons. The sensible heat flux minimum was observed in the 50"-6O"S and 60"-70"s zones for summer and fall, respectively. Higher momentum flux values over the 40"-50" S zone in summer shifted to the 50"-60" S zone during fall.

## Abstract The sensitivities of the Asian summer monsoon to sea‐surface temperature (SST) anomalies in the equatorial Indian Ocean and the western Pacific are compared in three different general circulation models (ARPÈGE, ECHAM, UGAMP). The impacts to idealized anomalies of 1 K show common featur
