MEET WHICH WAS SEA TEMPERATURE IN MAR DEL PLATA IN APRIL
Wednesday 08 May 2019. The Office of Physical Oceanography at the National
Institute for Fisheries Research and Development (INIDEP) reported that the
water temperature at the sea surface in Mar del Plata, averaged 17.8º C
during the month of April .. data were obtained with a thermometer SBE38 at
intervals of 5 minutes. To validate the observations are compared with
weekly measurements in the dock of the North breakwater (X) and the
climatological mean value (red line) and average limits + -3 * standard
deviation monthly (line hyphens) calculated for the area ( Regional
Oceanographic Database Bardo-INIDEP). In April the temperature dropped from
19.3 to 16.5 ° C, staying within the normal ranges for the area, but from
day 12 below the mean value zonal (18.2 ° C) . Regarding the records
obtained at the station in April, during the first five (5) day the
temperature exceeded the value of 25% of the highest values (P75 = 18.8 °
C) and from day 24 it was lower 25% of the lowest value (P25 = 17.1 ° C).
Comparing the main statistics this month of 2019 with those calculated from
the complete record of the EOC (2013 to present) series, increased measures
of dispersion (standard and ranges deviation), the decrease in the average
value and highlights minimum, and increasing higher quartiles. Main series
on the jetty Fisherman's Wharf for April statistical records.
