Figure 2. Distribution of potential temperature and salinity over the section across the Malvinas/Falkland current. A: Spatial distribution of temperature (red solid line) and salinity (blue solid line) in the surface layer along the section based on the SBE 21 thermosalinograph data. B: Potential temperature isotherms (solid black lines) over vertical salinity distribution field (color) in upper 600-m layer of the study region in January. The white dashed lines mark the borders of water masses according to its isopycnal limits. The data are based on WOA 13.
