Tasks<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The main aim of Part D of this mid-term exercise is to answer a series of questions based on compilation of ocean temperature and salinity data that enable evaluation of the following hypothesis, posed as a question:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Is the thermocline in ocean gyres lowered by the process of downwelling associated with Ekman transport and geostrophic flow?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    This page also provides links to the resources, previously utilized in Module 7 and in the Phase I Group Activities, Part C, needed to accomplish the task.<\/p>\n

    Resources<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    The Levitus atlas (Levitus Atlas (Links to an external site.)<\/span>Links to an external site.<\/span><\/span><\/a>) provides access to temperature and salinity data that can be displayed as maps or profiles. Here the focus is on the Annual (year-round average) data option. Follow the sequence below to access the data as a global map of ocean surface temperature:<\/p>\n
