La distribution de température dans l'océan n'est pas le seul résultat de l'absorption d'énergie solaire et du mélange turbulent vertical. L'advection par les courants joue un rôle prépondérant. Cette advection est d'ailleurs nécessaire pour maintenir, par équilibre dynamique, la distribution verticale de température. 3, record 1, French, - advection
