Abstract

The results of records of the sea surface temperature and the water temperature near the surface during ATEX-Expedition are reported. Three records of 5, 2 and 4 days show, that surface temperature at nighttime is 0.5°C, at the hours before noon is 0.35°C below the temperature in some decimeters. Probably the variation is caused by the absorption of sun radiation in a thin layer with mainly molecular heat transfer. In agreement with such assumption the records show that at the surface the maximum temperature appears before the maximum in the water and that the variation at the surface is 0.1° -0.15°C greater than that for the water near the surface.
