Abstract

Always oceanographers pay attention to layer structure in the sea environment. Creation of layer structures is because of some phenomenons like double diffusion, internal waves, turbulence modular mixing. In this paper with examination of vertical structure of temperature, salinity and density between Persian Gulf and Oman Sea in different seasons, layer structures appear clearly. Also, countors of the same physical parameters show the existence of regular structure which prove internal waves resulting from the Persian Gulf and flow into the Oman Sea.

Highlights

  • Always oceanographers pay attention to layer structures in the sea environment

  • When salinity and temperature distribution in water column has a upside down effects with regard to density distribution, very interesting structures can be created in water column which is called double diffusion convection

  • The occurrence of double diffusion convection is due to three basic factors permanently and naturally in most of oceans and seas: According to studies and given numerical models, the input flow of fresh water via Strait of Hormoz due to decreasing the north western winds power, increasing buoyancy forces, increasing south western monsoon and stratification in Oman Sea, reaches the end of the Persian Gulf
