Abstract The seasonal variations and the interactions of water masses in tropical Pacific off central Mexico (TPCM) four surrounding areas were examined based on an extensive new hydrographic database. regional redefined terms absolute salinity ( S A ) conservative temperature (Θ) according to Thermodynamic Equation Seawater 2010 (TEOS-10). Hydrographic data evaporation minus (precipitation + runoff) balance used investigate origin seasonality two minima area. shallow (50–100 m) minimum...
Comprehensive morphometric and hydrometeorological studies on Bacalar Lagoon, Mexico’s largest tropical karstic lake a significant aquatic system of the Yucatán Peninsula, are lacking. This study provides detailed analysis its bathymetry, morphometry, characteristics. The lake’s main basin stretches more than 52.7 km in length, with widths varying from 0.18 to 2.28 km. It has volume 554.4 million cubic meters, an average depth 8.85 m, reaching depths up 26 m north featuring sub-lacustrine...
Direct current measurements reveal that the circulation of northern Gulf California in annual timescale consists a cyclonic basinwide gyre (∼0.35 m s−1) lasts from June to September (4 months), and an anticyclonic lasting November April (6 months). The transitions between regimes take about three weeks each. hypothesis difference duration two is due seasonal variation stratification water column explored by simulations with nonlinear two-layer numerical model thermodynamics includes vertical...
Few studies have explored the details of climatology in Gulf California (GoC) coastal zone, a region characterized by robust land–sea breeze circulation that results from land heating on both coasts GoC. Using hourly historical observations automatic weather stations (AWSs) 2008 to 2018, we performed harmonic and empirical orthogonal function analyses describe several characteristics are regularly monitored GoC zone. The included air temperature (°C), relative humidity (%), atmospheric...
