The carbonate system in coastal waters off the northern region of the Baja California Peninsula under La Niña conditions
In the North Pacific, variations in isopycnal depth influence the biogeochemical characteristics of the water column and the aragonite saturation horizon (ZΩa) during interannual events. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of the 2011 La Niña conditions on ZΩa in Todos Santos Bay (B...

The objective of this study was to assess the effect of the 2011 La Niña conditions on ZΩa in Todos Santos Bay (Baja California, Mexico) and surrounding waters. The results showed that ZΩa variability was modulated by the intensity of interannual conditions and by the water masses that were present in the region. Subarctic Water predominated in the upper 200 m with anomalous characteristics, such as low temperature and low salinity. Also, isopycnals shoaled toward the coast and ZΩa was thus ~30 m in the nearshore area, in contrast with the oceanic region, where ZΩa was ~150 m. Prior to this study, there were no records of ZΩa in Todos Santos Bay, nor were there any records of its shallowness. En el Pacífico Norte se presentan variaciones en la profundidad de las isopicnas durante eventos interanuales que influyen en las características biogeoquímicas de la columna de agua y en el horizonte de saturación del aragonita (ZΩa). El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar el efecto de las condiciones de La Niña de 2011 sobre el ZΩa en la bahía de Todos Santos (Baja California, México) y aguas adyacentes. Los resultados mostraron que la variabilidad del ZΩa estuvo modulada por la intensidad de las condiciones interanuales y por las masas de agua que se presentaron en la región. En los primeros 200 m superficiales predominó el Agua del Subártico con características anómalas de baja temperatura y baja salinidad. Asimismo, se observó un ascenso de las isopicnas con dirección a la costa y, por tanto, el ZΩa fue de ~30 m en la zona más cercana a la costa, en contraste con la región más oceánica, donde el ZΩa fue de ~150 m. Antes del presente estudio, no se tenían registros del ZΩa para la zona dentro de la bahía de Todos Santos, tampoco de que pudiera ser somero.
