ATLANTIS 2009 cruise typical range of Sea Surface Temperature (SST), Sea Bottom Temperature (SBT), and salinity at the different zones or currents mentioned in the text and Figure 2. PS: Patagonian shelf; STZ: Subtropical Zone or Subtropical Front; FMC: Falkland (Malvinas) Current (at 52-53.3ºS-58-61º W); SAZ: Subantartic Zone; PFZ: Polar Frontal Zone; AZ: Antarctic Zone. S: Summer; W: Winter. Data sources: CIMAS (Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies, University of Miami; Arkhipkin et al., 2004; Deacon, 1984; Glorioso, 1987; and Peterson and Whitworth, 1989). These data vary with time of the year and weather conditions, when there is no indication the information correspond to March-April months.
