Abstract:

The atlas contains monthly mean sea temperature charts of the surface and four subsurface levels of the Gulf of California and the Pacific Ocean adjacent to the West Coast of Baja California, Mexico. The charts are presented in an expanded scale to show the complicated seasonal changes in sea temperature in the Gulf of California, and the great contrast between these temperatures and those on the Pacific side of Baja California.
