Description
Summary:Characteristics of water masses in the intermediate and deep layers of the ocean are considered. A compar-ative analysis of fine thermohaline structure and the main characteristics of different water masses has been carried out. A hypothesis has been put forward that variations in the temperature of near-bottom waters at the equator recorded in 2000 is a climatic response to the lowering of the Antarctic water surface temperature in the 1940s. This analysis is based on the comparison
