Talk:Gulf of Aden

Updates to Gulf of Aden article

There seemed to be a decided lack of information in the article when I recently accessed it, and I added a series of subsections to perhaps spark some interest in fleshing out the Gulf of Aden page. Looking forward to see what the Wikipedia community makes of the article! Historymike (talk) 22:45, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

The Gulf of Aden

The Gulf of Aden (Arabic: خليج عدن, Somali: Gacanka Cadmeed 𐒅𐒖𐒐𐒕𐒌 𐒋𐒖𐒆𐒗𐒒) is a deepwater gulf of the Indian Ocean between Yemen to the north, the Arabian Sea to the east, Djibouti to the west, and the Guardafui Channel, Socotra and Somalia to the south. In the northwest, it connects with the Red Sea through the Bab-el-Mandeb strait, and it connects with the Arabian Sea to the east. To the west, it narrows into the Gulf of Tadjoura in Djibouti. The Aden Ridge lies along the centerline of the Gulf and is causing it to widen about 15mm per year. Gulf of Aden 122.248.107.70 (talk) 16:43, 13 May 2023 (UTC)

No Gulf of Tadjoura

The 1953 IHO document does not recognize any Gulf of Tadjoura – according to that document, at least as far as I can tell, the water at Tadjoura is simply part of the Gulf of Aden. Please provide a reliable source proving that the Gulf of Tadjoura has received the proper international recognition and that the limits of the Gulf of Aden have legitimately been changed. TooManyFingers (talk) 22:58, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

The newer draft IHO document from 2000 makes it very clear that the Gulf of Tadjoura is not separate, and is still a part of the Gulf of Aden. I'm removing the mistaken addition that was calling it a separate body of water. TooManyFingers (talk) 23:38, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

The 2000 IHO document does change the dividing line between the Gulf of Aden and the Arabian Sea. The 1953 line begins at Cape Guardafui / Ras Caseyr and goes exactly north to an arbitrary point on the Yemeni coast. The 2000 line begins in the same place, but goes northeast to Ras Fartk / Ras Fartak. Do what you like with that; the newer info is not officially published, but only because Japan and Korea have a standing disagreement on what to call the body of water between them, and the IHO is not siding with either party.
