U.S. Navy Regional Climatic Study of Southern African Waters

Abstract

This study is for the region which comprises the waters around southern Africa from 25 deg S to 44 deg S and 6 deg E to 40 deg E. The selected limits allow for a small overlap between this region and that of the study for the Mozambique Channel. Most emphasis in this study was placed on the marine areas, with only a few coastal station summaries included in the text and final section of this publication. Keywords: Marine climatology; Meteorological data; Oceanographic data; Indian Ocean; South Atlantic Ocean.
