I don't know too much about the water mechanics in the game (in regards to halocline [salinity gradient], thermalcline [temperature gradient] and pycnocline [density gradient.]) The thermohaline circulation of the oceans is rather constant for about 90% of the ocean and only disapates at 50-60 degrees of latitude North and South of the equator. Here another interesting event occurs (which could be the key to your problem.) Around Midway and Pearl Harbour an upwelling of water is present, thus having a near undefinable thermocline due to the constant supply of water being brought in by deep ocean currents and the corealis effect. Also the time of year (winter v. summer) will have an impact on everything.
I don't even want to think about the El Nino effect.
Then in theory, if the game is as amazingly written as I preceive it, this may not be a glitch.
I would be interested to see if you get the same 'problem' in latitudes closer to the equator. Because if you don't, thermohaline circulation could very possibly be written into the game as a dynamic factor.
As for your problem, just make a silent sound file for the message.
Yeah, I took my Oceanography final exam today. Sorry for being drawn out though I hope it could help explain why this message would appear so often.
