Potentialities and Perspectives Networks that should be part of GOOSMEX: • Sismological, Tsunamis, Sea level • Meteorological (Coastal and buoys) • Waves, Extreme Events • Drifting and Moored buoys (Coastal currents SST, SSS, surface and subsurface) • HAB´s, Bacteriological Monitoring in Beaches • Coral reefs observation network • Carbon fluxes (pCO2, sources and sinks) • More colaboration with international programs for deep ocean

1 2 No exiten remolinos ni ondas en la costa Onda Atrapada a la costa interanual Sea Level simulated by NLOM 3 Coastally trapped wave Formación de remolinos 4 6 Inicia la fusión de los remolinos Rossby waves 5
Segunda hipótesis: El viento y las ondas atrapadas a la costa como los generadores y moduladores de los remolinos de Tehuantepec
