An analysis of the oceanographic fields presented in the Atlas of the Colombian oceanographic data 1922-2013, was presented in horizontal maps with temperature, salinity, density, geostrophic velocity and dynamic topography climatologies, at standard depths over some regions of the Colombian waters in the Caribbean and Pacific Ocean and of their neighboring countries, in a grid of one-half degree of latitude by one-half degree of longitude. The objective was to observer the improvement in the observation of oceanographic features in the distribution of characteristics in both basins, comparing them with previous versions of climatologies of the region.Downloads
