Spatio-temporal variability of micro-, nano- and pico-phytoplankton in the Mediterranean Sea from satellite ocean colour data of SeaWiFS [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2015 The seasonal and year-to-year variability of the phytoplankton size class (PSC) spatial distribution has been examined in the Mediterranean Sea by using the entire time series of Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) space observations (1998 ...

Seismic source in the Iberian-African plate boundary [PDF]
, 2003 The plate boundary between Iberia and Africa has been studied using data on seismicity and focal mechanisms. The region has been divided into three areas: A; the Gulf of Cadiz; B, the Betics, Alboran Sea and northern Morocco; and C, Algeria.

Diagnostic préliminaire de l’exposition du littoral méditerranéen du Maroc face au risque de tsunami
Bulletin de l’Association de Géographes Français, 2022 In the Alboran Sea, the Mediterranean coastline of Morocco is exposed to tsunami hazard. The average regional seismicity (≈ 6.6 Mw) may be the direct cause of this phenomenon and may enhance the possibility of occurrence of submarine landslides, a ...

Forecasting the SST space-time variability of the Alboran Sea with genetic algorithms [PDF]
, 1999 We propose a nonlinear ocean forecasting technique based on a combination of genetic algorithms and empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis. The method is used to forecast the space-time variability of the sea surface temperature (SST) in the ...

On the upper layer circulation in the Alboran Sea [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1998 We present new experimental results and assemble them with previous results in order to develop an improved picture of the upper layer circulation in the Alboran Sea. It is suggested that the key idea to understanding this upper layer circulation is the tendency of the Atlantic jet (AJ) to have negative curvature.

A dynamic explanation for the origin of the western Mediterranean organic-rich layers [PDF]
, 2008 The eastern Mediterranean sapropels are among the most intensively investigated phenomena in the paleoceanographic record, but relatively little has been written regarding the origin of the equivalent of the sapropels in the western Mediterranean, the ...
