International Indian Ocean Expedition Meteorological monographs Number 1. 94 p., graphs, photos, diagrams. "This monograph graphically reports the meteorological history of the first weather system to drench the parched earth of western and central India in 1963. From June 26 to July 10 the weather over the Arabian Sea was observed on the surface by ships, from the air by research aircraft, and 500 miles above the earth by TIROS weather satellites. The authors unfold the events of the cyclone system which brought on the active monsoon rains... [and] the factors which brought about a cessation of the heavy rains as suddenly as they had begun."
