A compliance level similar to that measured for the TSS could be considered adequate for speed restrictions. Speed data provided by AIS indicate SOG, which is difficult to maintain for ships navigating in strong currents (57). Therefore, Chion et al. (57) recommended using Speed Through Water ...
The largest seasonal amplitude and lowest SSS values (<30 from October to December) are found just off the Panama Canal, in good agreement with coastal measurements [Linsley et al., 1994, Figure 4]. The strongest SSS front is found around the 32 isohaline. While no SST front is ...
Precipitation is well studied phenomenon in Panama, mostly for ensuring its availability for the functioning of the Panama Canal and the water cycle on the Canal watershed. However, other variables that are important for crop growth, for instance, VPD, solar radiation, and UV rays, which are im...
