Resumen: Abstract In this research we tested two data analyses methodologies, namely the empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs) to estimate hydrographic CTD data profiles, and a successive corrections algorithm (SC) to project the results onto two dimensional grids, whose superposition leads to a quasi-three dimensional array, on the Ebro Delta shelf/slope domain. The EOFs as an extrapolation procedure with shallow casts was also tested with thickness profiles, for an adequate set of extrapolated profiles might render reliable geostrophic currents on the shelf. The reference level of no motion for the ...
