Popis:	A study of the oceanic surface layer is presented, taking into account its vertical thermal structure and time-space variability. Oceanographic data from 37 cruises were used. The thickness of the isothermal layer and depth of the 26ºC isotherm were determined. The possible connection between the thermal characteristics of the sea surface layer and tropical cyclone activity was analyzed. The presence of ENSO was considered. We show that the thermal characteristics of Cuban waters are always favorable for tropical cyclone development.
