influence the wavelength of internal tides and eventually control their propagation distance and energy dissipation. These aforementioned studies suggest that seasonally varying background stratification and currents significantly impact the properties of internal tides. The properties of internal tides have also been studied through in situ observations and satellite datasets. In situ observation provides information on the vertical characteristics of the internal waves (e.g., the energy flux [16]); however, these observations are generally too scarce in the space and time domains to obtain a systematic understanding of the baroclinic tides. In contrast, satellite altimeter measurements have the advantages of a wider orbit and longer temporal coverage, enabling the detection of internal tides across a much broader domain than the few locations covered by in situ observations [17]. Hence, satellite altimeter measurements are now widely used to monitor internal tides across the global ocean (e.g., the Hawaiian Ridge [18], the South China Sea [19], and the Tasman Sea [20]). Inference methods of the internal tides and the quality of the generated data from satellites have considerably improved in recent years, which has facilitated the use of satellite remote sensing methods to study internal tides [6; 21; 22; 23]. [PERSON] and [PERSON] [19] demonstrated the feasibility of extracting seasonal baroclinic signals from altimeter data in the Pacific, thus providing a basis for studying seasonal internal tides using altimeter data. By combining data from multiple satellites, [PERSON] et al. [24] achieved higher spatial and temporal resolution than that achieved using data obtained from a single satellite; thus, using datasets obtained from multiple satellites is a more effective approach than using datasets obtained from a single satellite for investigating a specific basin. The Arabian Sea is located in the north of the Indian Ocean; it is bounded on the north by the Gulf of Oman and on the west by the Gulf of Aden. The general circulation in this basin is clockwise in summer and anticlockwise in winter [25], and it exhibits remarkable seasonal variability driven by the Indian monsoon system [26; 27]. The eddy-induced swirl transport is larger in the western Arabian Sea and tends to compensate for heat transport by the mean flow [28]. The two gufls in the north connect and exchange water properties with the Arabian Sea through two straits [29]. The seasonal variations in stratification possibly influence the properties of internal tides in this basin. Previous studies on internal tides in the Arabian Sea were markedly limited and mostly based on in situ observations [30; 31]. However, due to the development of global satellite observation networks, several studies recently indicated that the Arabian Sea is a hotspot of internal tides [24; 32]. In situ data revealed that temperature fluctuations caused by internal tides are related to a thermocline gradient in the northeast Arabian Sea [33]. Data from acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs) were analyzed to identify strong internal tides generated on the continental shelf of the eastern Arabian Sea; the strong seasonal stratification on the shelf is believed to generate large semidiurnal internal tides during the southwest monsoon [34]. [PERSON] et al. [35] performed numerical simulations to investigate the properties of internal tides on the shelf-slope off the west coast of India. They found that about 2.4 GW of barotropic tides are converted to baroclinic tides in this region. However, the above-mentioned studies exclusively focused on the internal tides in specific areas of the Arabian Sea. The general characteristics of the internal tides in the Arabian Sea, such as their spatial distribution, generation sources, propagation paths, and dissipation areas, as well as their seasonal variations and mechanisms have not been examined thus far and are poorly understood.
