Main Article Content
Abstract
A brief analysis of oceanographic researches, carried out in Cuban waters is presented, which addressed the space-temporal distribution and changes that have occurred during the last decades in temperature, salinity and marine currents, including the influence of predicted climate change. The studies, carried out by Cuban authors in the waters near the national territory, are addressed first and later, those by foreign authors in the Inter-American seas, identified as the Wider Caribbean. Assessments about the probable long-term changes are included, made from outputs of climate models with the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios. Examples of possible impacts on biodiversity and hurricane behavior around the national territory are presented.
