North-western Atlantic, oceanography data C016 / 3739
North-western Atlantic, oceanography data. Cutaway block diagram of the north-western Atlantic Ocean, showing in exaggerated form the height of land terrain and the depth of the seabed, plus sea surface temperature (SST) and salinity data. The depth ranges from sea level to 6000 metres (labelled at upper right). At right are a colour-coded temperature depth profile (ranging from 0 to 32 degrees Celsius, same colours apply to the SST data) and a shading-coded salinity depth profile (pink, 35 to 38 parts per thousand). The areas shown include parts of North America, the northern part of South America, the southern tip of Greenland, and the islands of the Caribbean

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "North-western Atlantic, oceanography data C016 / 3739" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate details of the north-western Atlantic Ocean. The image showcases a cutaway block diagram that vividly depicts both the height of land terrain and the depth of the seabed in an exaggerated form. Stretching from sea level to an astonishing 6000 meters, this comprehensive diagram provides valuable insights into various aspects of this vast underwater world. Alongside it, we find essential data on sea surface temperature (SST) and salinity levels represented by color-coded profiles. The temperature profile ranges from 0 to 32 degrees Celsius while maintaining consistency with SST colors. The areas captured within this visual masterpiece encompass parts of North America, northern South America, Greenland's southern tip, and numerous Caribbean islands. Each region is meticulously illustrated to showcase its unique topography and geological features. From Florida's coastal shelves to the depths beneath Amazon Basin's river systems; from Cuba's varied terrains to Hispaniola's enchanting landscapes - every corner holds secrets waiting to be explored. Planet Earth's diverse physical geography comes alive through this artwork created by Planetary Visions Ltd for Science Photo Library. With its precise depiction of bathymetry and topographic variations combined with satellite imagery data, this print serves as a testament to our ever-evolving understanding of our planet’s oceans. Whether you are an oceanographer or simply fascinated by Earth science, let your imagination dive deep into these saltwater realms where continents meet mountains and abyssal plains stretch beyond horizons unseen.
