Any space-based observation and forecasting system is critically dependent upon in-situ ocean data, since satellites can only sense ocean properties at or very near the sea surface. 1n contrast, in-situ platforms such as Argo Floats provide the inside view of the ocean. However, despite the impressive increase in the number of temperature and salinity profiles from the Argo array, in-situ data still undersample the temporal and spatial variability of the ocean thermohaline structure. Mersea will contribute to the Argo program by filling this gap... [NOT CONTROLLED OCR] |

High resolution synoptic hydrographic surveys carried out during 1982 to 1987 are used to delineate the two-dimensional baroclinic flow pattern of the Red Sea. it is shown that the circulation can be characterized through a succession Of four gyres, some 200 km in diameter, the locations of which are linked to the major topographic basins of the Red Sea. The gyres have a transport almost an order of magnitude larger than the large-scale thermohaline driven flow. They appear to be forced by the strongly rotational wind field over the Red Sea. |
