[ES] La ausencia de vientos dominantes y la existencia de varios cañones submarinos perpendiculares a la estrecha plataforma continental, hacen de la región norte de la costa catalana una zona ideal para comprobar la hipótesis de la modificacicón del flujo costcro provocado por la interacción topográfica. El análisis de datos hidrográficos obtenidos durante junio de 1983, combinado con un estudio intensivo de imágenes de satélite (termografías NOAA y CZCS/Nimbus), indica quc los cañones actúan como barreras que desvían la corriente que circula hacia el sur. El flujo es desviado hacia mar abierto al sobrepasar cada cañón, de acuerdo con la teoria simple de la circulación en aguas poco profundas
[EN] The lack of dominant winds and the almost complete bisecting of the narrow shelf by several canyons make the region off the northeast Spanish coast an ideal area to test the hypothesis of topographic modification of the general coastal flow. Analysis of in situ data (June 1983), combined with an intense study of satellite imagery, indicates that the canyons act as deflecting barriers to the southward current. The flow is deflected offshore on the downstream side of each canyon, in accordance with the simple shallow-water theory
