“…1). Este sector del Estrecho presenta profundidades que varían entre 30-50 m. Las aguas del sector son originadas a partir de la mezcla de la capa superficial de las aguas intermedias del océano Atlántico provenientes del sur, con aguas más diluidas en términos de salinidad y de origen continental que fluyen desde el estrecho de Magallanes hacia la plataforma continental Atlántica (Glorioso 1987). La columna de agua es verticalmente homogénea como resultado de la mezcla significativa originada por las fuertes corrientes mareales presentes en el área.…”

“…Region A: The Patagonian Continental Shelf has high levels of dissipation of tidal energy (Simpson and Bowers, 1981;Glorioso, 1987). The mixing induced by tidal currents contributes to 8.5% of total tidal energy dissipation of the world ocean (Miller, 1966).…”

“…The tidal front off Península Valdés is a thermal front, observed in spring and summer, that defines the boundary between stratified (offshore) waters and a coastal, vertically mixed body of water. The stratification of shelf waters is induced by surface warming during spring and summer periods, and the mixing of the coastal water is forced by vertical shear induced by tidal currents at particular topographic shoals south-east and north-east of the peninsula (Carreto et al, 1986a;Glorioso, 1987). Carreto et al (1986a) demonstrated that this front is highly productive during the spring and summer.…”

“…This feature, combined with the stratification of shelf waters induced by seasonal surface warming, results in the highly mixed coastal waters being separated from the stratified offshore waters. This structure is maintained until autumn when stratification breaks down (Carreto et al 1986, Glorioso 1987, Acha et al 2004.…”
