Scientific paper

Long time series of sea surface temperature and surface height along the Mexican Pacific coast show that propagating coastal Kelvin waves, some cases propagate to the interior of the Gulf of California, while in some other cases they completely skip the gulf and the waves propagate through the gulf mouth to the western side of the peninsula de Baja California and to the north. Using satellite observations to identified events and a combination of numerical (ROMS) and analytical model, we investigate this phenomena focusing on discerning the set of conditions (mainly intensity and frequency of the waves) that determine which of these two main outcomes develops. Preliminary results are presented.
