RESUMENSe predice numéricamente la circulación inducida por la componente M2 de la marea y el viento en Bahía de los Angeles. La amplitud y la fase de la marea son prácticamente iguales en toda la bahía, las corrientes de marea son del orden de 3 cm/s y las residuales de la marea de 0.5 cm/s. En cambio las corrientes inducidas por el viento alcanzan hasta 25 cm/s en las áreas de intensificación.La configuración de la costa y la batimetría dominan las principales características de la circulación. Para cualquier dirección del viento dominante, se presenta un fuerte intercambio con el exterior, y un giro persistente en la ensenada La Gringa y con la parte central de la bahía. Las zonas de flujo más intenso son el canal sur y la zona costera al sur de la ensenada La Gringa. ABSTRACTThe circulation induced by the M2 component of the tide and wind at Bahía de los Angeles was predicted. The tide amplitude and the phase are practically the same at the bay, the tide currents values are 3 cm/s and the tide residuals 0.5 cm/s. Otherwise, the induced currents by the wind reach until 25 cm/s at the intensification areas. The coast configuration and the bathymetry dominate the main characteristics of the circulation. There is a strong interchange with the exterior to any dominant direction of the wind, and a persistent gyre at the inlet of La Gringa and at the middle of the bay. The most intenses flux zones are the southern channel and the coastal zone to the South of La Gringa inlet. INTRODUCCION 39
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
