註釋The Alboran Sea is a strategically important but oceanographically complex region. Images from the NOAA 5 satellite and data from XBT sections, CTD stations and near surface temperature measurements are combined with historical data to describe the gyre existing between the Strait of Gibraltar and 3 W. The gyre is outlined by a thermal front between inflowing Atlantic and upwelled Mediterranean water. Although the gyre appears to be a permanent feature, the location and strength of the front will vary. The data imply that for environmental and acoustic prediction the Alboran Sea should be split into smaller regions with active boundaries updated from satellite data. (Author).
