General circulation of the Eastern Mediterranean

Earth-Science Reviews, 1992
Abstract A novel description of the phenomenology of the Eastern Mediterranean is presented based upon a comprehensive pooled hydrographic data base collected during 1985–1987 and analyzed by cooperating scientists from several institutions and nations (the POEM project). Related dynamical process and modeling studies are also overviewed.

Heat Storage in the Eastern Mediterranean [PDF]

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1993
Abstract Results of the monthly climatological fields of heat storage for the Eastern Mediterranean are presented. The zonal annual trend of monthly mean storage in the Levantine, Aegean, and Ionian seas are shown as well as the horizontal distribution of the amplitude of the annual signal. These distributions are presented for the upper 100- and 300-m
