Seasonal and interannual variability of Mediterranean Sea overturning circulation
Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, 2023 The overturning streamfunction is a widely used metric to monitor ocean circulation changes in the North Atlantic Ocean. Analogously, it is known that an overturning circulation develops in the Mediterranean Sea, although substantially weaker and smaller
