SOME OBSERVATIONS OF THE DIURNAL HEAT WAVE IN THE OCEAN’

The diurnal heat wave was observed over several days at a station in the subtropical North Atlantic Occnn. Measurements were made every 30 min using an in situ tempera-ture-salinity-depth recorder; the isotherms were plotted (to an accuracy O.OlC) at 2-m depth intervals. For a day of average conditi...
