Oxygen budget of the north-western Mediterranean deep- convection region [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2021
The north-western Mediterranean deep convection plays a crucial role in the general circulation and biogeochemical cycles of the Mediterranean Sea. The DEWEX (DEnse Water EXperiment) project aimed to better understand this role through an intensive ...

Neustonic microplastic and zooplankton in the North Western Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2012
Neustonic microplastic and zooplankton abundance was determined in the North Western Mediterranean Sea during a summer cruise between July 9th and August 6th 2010, with a break between July 22 th and 25th due to a strong wind event. Ninety percent of the 40 stations contained microplastic particles (size 0.3-5mm) of various compositions: e.g ...

Extreme precipitation events in the Mediterranean area: contrasting two different models for moisture source identification [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2021
Concern about heavy precipitation events has increasingly grown in the last years in southern Europe, especially in the Mediterranean region. These occasional episodes can result in more than 200 mm of rainfall in less than 24 h, producing flash floods ...

Characterisation of Extreme Precipitation Events in the Pyrenees: From the Local to the Synoptic Scale

Atmosphere, 2021
Mountain systems within the Mediterranean region, e.g., the Pyrenees, are very sensitive to climate change. In the present study, we quantified the magnitude of extreme precipitation events and the number of days with torrential precipitation (daily ...

The Seabed Makes the Dolphins: Physiographic Features Shape the Size and Structure of the Bottlenose Dolphin Geographical Units

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The common bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) is a cosmopolitan delphinid, regularly present in the Mediterranean Sea. According to previous studies, this dolphin tends to form resident geographical units scattered on the continental shelf.

Determinants of Caulerpa racemosa distribution in the north-western Mediterranean [PDF]

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2011
Predicting community susceptibility to invasion has become a priority for preserving biodiversity. We tested the hypothesis that the occurrence and abundance of the seaweed Caulerpa racemosa in the north-western (NW) Mediterranean would increase with increasing levels of human disturbance.

Pulsed export of carbon in the north-western Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

Journal of Oceanology and Limnology, 2022
AbstractThe short term (hourly scale) variability of heterotrophic prokaryote (HP) vertical distribution and respiratory activity, was investigated in the north-western (NW) Mediterranean Sea. HP vertical distribution was determined on board by flow cytometry analysis of seawater samples collected by series of CTD casts.
