A Preliminary Study of the Oceanography of the Tongue of the Ocean, Bahamas.

The Tongue of the Ocean (TOTO), like the surrounding oceanic waters, is composed of three major water types. The upper 250 meters are influenced by local meteorological processes and the physical structure varies seasonally and from year to year in the same season. Between depths of 250 meters and 8...
