    Description: The ocean response to an idealised North Atlantic Oscillation-like wind stress is evaluated as a function of the atmospheric forcing frequency. In order to elucidate the relationship between internal and forced variability, the NAO is modulated with two specific timescales, 10 and 50 years, which characterise the spectrum of the system’s internal variability. Different timescales of atmospheric variability select distinct sea surface temperature (SST) and large scale circulation patterns. Under a 50 year NAO forcing period, a lagged SST response is excited in the Gulf Stream extension region, which is consistent with the spinup of the gyre circulation. The thermohaline circulation varies in phase with the NAO and shows a strong sensitivity to the forcing frequency: a dipole mode of the overturning is excited by a 10 year modulation of the NAO, while an enhanced overturning response emerges under a 50 year NAO. With low enough lateral mixing the ocean exhibits an irregular response to a regular NAO-like forcing.

    Description: This dissertation analyses the oceanic circulation of the Norpatagonian Gulfs, a region of the Argentinean Sea that has long been recognized for the high productivity and biodiversity of the ecosystem. The study aims towards a systematic exploration of the physical processes that control the circulation using a high resolution three dimensional numerical model. To facilitate the dynamical understanding of the results our experimental strategy was to start with a constant density (barotropic) model forced by tides and winds, and to progress to a more complex case including density stratification generated by surface fluxes of heat and humidity. The main result that stems from the numerical experiments is that tidal forcing significantly contributes to the overall subtidal residual circulation both in the homogenous and stratified models. The barotropic model shows that the nonlinear interaction between the oscilating tide and bottom topography leads to the formation of several robust residual circulation patterns: basin gyres, bathymetric vortices and coastline cuadrupoles, whichs are formed by recirculating eddies at mouths of SJG and GN. With the exception of the winter months, when the winds are stronger, the barotropic ocean response is completely dominated by the cyclonic tidal residual. It is necessary to have a strong wind in the northerly or westerly direction to break that pattern. The results of the stratified model also shows the profound influence of the tides in shaping the annual cycle of the circulation inside San Matias Gulf. The overall circulation pattern is dominated by a strong cyclonic gyre (composed by two recirculating sub-gyres) during summer with smaller anticyclonic gyres on the southwest coast and north of Valdes Peninsula. The spinup of the cyclonic circulation between October and February is caused by the interaction of the tides and stratification (generated by surface heat fluxes) in the presence of variable topography. As a result of this closed circulation the Gulf is almost isolated from the shelf during summer. From March to September the stratification is eroded and the northern subgyre spins down and gradually shrinks in size being absorbed by the southern subgyre. Simultaneously, the western sector of the Gulf is occupied by an anticyclonic gyre. The inclusion of wind forcing does not substantially modified the structure and intensity of the summer gyres but strengthens both the cyclonic and anticyclonic circulation during fall-winter. There is a similar oceanic response in Nuevo Gulf, but in this case there is only one year-round cyclonic gyre that intensifies in summer and is reduced in spatial extension in winter with the appearence of a weak anticyclonic gyre in the western coast. The residual currents are dominated by a strong year-round dipole in San Jose Gulf. Being initialized with horizontally constant density, the model is also able to capture the oberved structure and intensity of main thermal fronts in the outer shelf and inside San Matias Gulf

    Description: In this chapter the main features of the currents on the Argentine continental shelf are described. Due to the scarcity of direct current observations, adequate to resolve the mean flow, the circulation of the continental shelf is studied based on property distributions and models. These analyses indicate that the mean flowover the continental shelf varies between 1 and 2 Sverdrups (1Sverdrup = 1x106 m3 s-1)towards the NNE. A synthesis of results of studies of higher frequency motions is also presented. The most relevant results derived from long term direct current observations on the continental shelf near 43°S are discussed. The mean current velocities in the inner and mid-shelf regions vary between 0,05 and 0,10 m/s towards the NNE, in agreement with the direction inferred from property distributions and models.

    Description: This dissertation analyses the barotropic and baroclinic response of the Argentinean Continental Shelf to different forcing using a three-dimensional numerical ocean model. The study aims towards a systematical exploration of the physical processes that control the circulation. To facilitate the dynamical understanding of the results our experimental strategy was to start with a three dimensional barotropic model (constant density) that examines the influence of winds and tides, and to progress to a more complex case including density stratification (baroclinic model). It was found that the average annual circulation, forced only by the wind, shows a strong contrast between the northern and southern region of the study area. A detailed analysis demonstrates that, although the wind magnitude in the northern region is significantly smaller than in the south, its influence on the circulation is amplified due to changes in wind direction and shelf width. The inclusion of the tidal mixing modifies to a large degree the wind-induced circulation. The effects are more evident in the Patagonian Shelf and include a weakening in transport intensity and the smoothing of the wind-induced gyre patterns. The largest seasonal variations of the shelf circulation are observed north of 45°S. During fall, there is a development of an intense northward coastal jet that reverses direction in early spring. A sensitivity study changing the wind database shows that the circulation has robust patterns (e.g., coastal recirculation cells, like the Bahía Grande gyre) and others highly dependent on the selected forcing (e.g., alongshore transport intensity). The baroclinic experiments were designed to study the physical processes that control the formation and evolution of the Magellan plume and their possible influence on the shelf circulation. The model results suggest that Magellan plume modifies the circulation south of 45°S, weakening the Bahia Grande gyre and increasing the currents in both the middle and the outer shelf. Wind and buoyancy forcing dominate the surface layers, while the interaction of tides and the discharge are more important in the bottom layers. Further north, the most important variations in the circulation are related to seasonal changes of the winds in the inner shelf and to pressure gradient effects of the Malvinas Current at both the middle and the outer shelf. Este trabajo presenta resultados de la aplicación de un modelo numérico tridimensional de circulación a la Plataforma Continental Argentina. El estudio está orientado fundamentalmente a una exploración sistemática de los procesos físicos que controlan la circulación. El grupo de experimentos barotrópicos (densidad constante) examina la influencia del viento y la marea. Se encuentra que la circulación media anual forzada sólo por el viento tiene un marcado contraste entre las porciones norte y sur del área de estudio. Un análisis detallado demuestra que, aún cuando la magnitud del viento en la porción norte es significativamente menor que la del sur, su influencia en la circulación es amplificada debido a la rotación de los vientos y el estrechamiento de la plataforma. La inclusión del efecto de mezcla mareal modifica en gran medida la circulación inducida por el viento. Los efectos son más notorios en la Plataforma Patagónica e incluyen una disminución de la intensidad del transporte y el suavizado de los patrones de giro inducidos por el viento. Las variaciones estacionales más importantes en la circulación se observan al norte de 45°S. Durante el otoño se desarrolla un intenso jet costero dirigido hacia el norte, el cual invierte su dirección en primavera. Un estudio de sensibilidad al forzante de vientos, muestra que la circulación tiene patrones robustos (p.e., giro de la Bahía Grande) y otros altamente dependientes del forzante seleccionado (p.e., intensidad del transporte a lo largo de la costa). El grupo de experimentos baroclínico fue diseñado para estudiar los procesos físicos que controlan la formación y evolución de la pluma de Magallanes, y su posible influencia en la circulación general. Los resultados sugieren que la pluma de Magallanes modifica la circulación al sur 45°S, debilitando el giro en Bahía Grande e incrementado las corrientes en plataforma intermedia y exterior. Los factores dominantes de la circulación en esta región son la acción del viento y la descarga en las capas superficiales, y e efecto de la marea y la descarga en las capas más profundas. Más al norte, las variaciones más importantes de la circulación están asociadas a variaciones estacionales de los vientos en la plataforma interior y a efectos detectables de la corriente de Malvinas en la plataforma media y exterior.

    Description: Se modificó el patrón de circulación en la periferia acuática del Golfo de Batabanó a partir de la caracterización estadística de la corriente residual filtrada de series temporales provenientes de 12 estaciones correntométricas obtenidas de julio de 1988 a agosto de 1989. Para el filtraje de la componente no periódica se utilizó el filtro Doodson. Los resultados muestran que las corrientes residuales son débiles, con intensidades que variaron entre 1.2 - 5.5 cm/s como promedio por estaciones, además, las velocidades resultaron ser más estables en dirección que en intensidad. Se observó salida de agua por el extremo SE del golfo y por algunos canales al E de la Isla de la Juventud, y entrada de agua por el E del golfo en su límite con el Golfo de Cazones y por algunos canales al E de la Isla de la Juventud.

    Description: Se realiza un breve resumen de estudios previos acerca de la circulación oceánica en el área del Pacífico Oriental Ecuatorial, haciendo énfasis en la zona frente a las costas del Ecuador. Posteriormente se analizan los datos de derivas y vientos tomados por el B/I ORION durante sus Cruceros de Investigación desde 1982, excluyendo aquellas observadas durante El Niño 82-83 y la información existente al oeste de 84° W. Del análisis de la información de derivas obtenidas durante casi todos los meses del año, se observa que el ramal oriental de la Corriente de Humboldt avanza con tendencia al norte bordeando las costas ecuatorianas, debido principalmente al empuje de los vientos alisios del SE. Este flujo denominado Corriente Costanera Ecuatoriana (CCE) gira hacia el noroeste a medida que se aleja de la costa. Por falta de información en ciertas zonas, se desconoce a ciencia cierta el límite norte del mismo, pero se observa que su presencia al norte de la equinoccial está influenciada por la zona Convergencia Intertropical (ZCIT). Durante la posición de la ZCIT en su extremo más meridional, un flujo proveniente del norte llega hasta las costas ecuatorianas ocasionado por la acción de los vientos alisios del NE. El Golfo de Guayaquil, siendo un sistema estuarino de gran extensión altera la normal trayectoria de la CCE hacia el norte, desviando la dirección de las corrientes en las zonas aledañas a su desembocadura, sin embargo, el flujo de la CCE logra atravesar la zona frente al Golfo y avanzar en su dirección norte.

    Description: The use of satellite data in oceanographic and fishery studies in the SW Atlantic is reviewed. First, terms commonly used in the remote sensing literature are defined. The main satellite sensors used in oceanographic applications are described, and the principles of the remote estimation of two important variables, sea surface temperature(SST)and ocean color, are discussed. The use of remotely sensed data in oceanographic studies of the SW Atlantic is reviewed. Most studies are based on satellite SST fields and describe circulation in the open, particularly near the confluence of the Brazil and Malvinas currents. Due to the limited number of fishery studies based on satellite data in the SW Atlantic, examples from other parts of the world are reviewed. Future perspectives for satellite oceanography studies in the SW Atlantic are discussed.

    Description: De la información de corrientes, obtenidas en forma directa con un correntómetro ADCP WHS300, durante el Crucero Oceanográfico realizado desde el 31 de julio al 16 de agosto del 2000, se determinó el patrón de circulación alrededor de las Islas Galápagos, el mismo que no sigue estrictamente la distribución encontrada en forma global por otros autores. La circulación en el área de estudio está principalmente gobernada por la presencia de los fuertes afloramientos producidos al oeste de las islas, por la topografía submarina del Archipiélago y por la presencia de las derivas superficiales hacia el oeste, producto de la convergencia de las Corrientes Sur Ecuatorial y Corriente de Humboldt. Los mayores flujos fueron observados en los niveles superficiales en la región norte del Ecuador con magnitudes alrededor de 1 m/s.
    Description: Based on information about currents obtained in direct form with an ADCP currentmeter WHS300, during the Oceanographic Cruise carried out since july 31 to august 16 of 2000, the pattern of circulation around the Galápagos Islands was determined, this doesn't strictly follow the distribution found in global form, by other authors. The circulation in our area of study is mainly influenced by the presence of strong upwelling produced at the west of the islands, the submarine topography of the Archipelago and the presence of the superficial drifts toward the west, as the result of the convergence of the South Equatorial Current and Humboldt Current. The major flows were observed at the superficial levels on the north region of the Equator with magnitudes around 1 m/s.

    Description: A simplified box model of the cooling of a salt-stratified ocean has been constructed in the laboratory to test a theory that predicts multiple equilibria if certain conditions exist. An isothermal basin of water had a thin layer of fresh water over salt water. Beside this was a smaller basin connected to the large basin by horizontal tubes at the top, middle and bottom. The small basin was cooled from above. If the top tube has more flow resistance than the bottom tubes, theory indicates that as cooling temperature T* is made colder, there is a sudden transition between two flow states. The velocities in the tubes jump to greater values, while salinity and temperature in the small basin jump to another value. These multiple states are found in the laboratory experiments along with some states that oscillate. Laboratory measurements and layered model calculations for hysteresis and the jump of temperature and salinity agree qualitatively, but there is only rough quantitative agreement.
