| Abstract | Soviet altimetry data, disclosed recently, are applied to describe mesoscale sea-level variability in the North Atlantic. The method of satellite data processing is presented and possible errors are estimated. Variations of sea surface heights measured by several altimeters in non-repeat orbits during a period of 4 years are used to compute the wave number spectra of mesoscale variability for ascendant and descendant satellite tracks. The instrument noise level (about 0.5-0.6 m/sup 2/) has limited the resulting oceanic spectrum to wavelengths longer than 200-300 km. The radius of correlation for the ascendant tracks is 200 km and differs from the one for descendant tracks, which is 300 km. The ascendant tracks are directed nearly along the main current and corresponding along-track wavenumber spectrum is similar to spectra typical for high-energy ocean areas. It has a broad spectral 'bump' for wave lengths 500-1000 km. The descendant tracks are directed across the current, the spectrum is smooth and similar to spectra in low-energy ocean areas. This difference demonstrates the strongly anisotropic character of mesoscale variability in the region of the Gulf Stream, where the frontal zone plays the role of a specific waveguide for high-energetic trapped quasi-geostrophic waves, propagating along the front. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
