Some Considerations on the Variability of Sea Level Synoptic Component in the Gulf of Batabanó.

Abstract: An analysis of sea level synoptic variations in the Gulf of Batabanó is carried out starting from data of direct measurements. Spectral analysis is applied. It is corroborated with new elements the prevalence of meteorological variations in part of the southwestern shelf, and the spectral structure of this shelf is characterized. The influence of meteorological factors is evaluated. It is demonstrated the influence exerted by the southern component of the wind on this variations. There are signs of the possible influence of ENSO on sea level monthly variability at La Coloma; and there is a great similarity between this variability and that of Siboney.
