Ventilation of deep waters in the Adriatic and Ionian Seas following changes in thermohaline circulation of the Eastern Mediterranean
Manca, Beniamino B.; Ibello, Valeria; Pacciaroni, Massimo; Scarazzato, Paolo; Giorgetti, Alessandra (2006-07-27)
Hydrographic measurements obtained in March-April 2002 indicate a new ventilation of the deep layers in the Adriatic and Ionian Seas, following abrupt changes in the thermohaline circulation of the eastern Mediterranean observed since the beginning of the last decade. The water masses that reside in the Southern Adriatic basin were renewed by open ocean winter convection of water with potential density excess (sigma(theta)) > 29.18 kg m(-3) at depths 600 to 800 m and by a vein of still denser (29.26 kg m(-3...
SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION, COMPOSITION AND DNA BARCODING OF ZOOPLANKTON IN THE SOUTHERN BLACK SEA (JULY 2013)
Öztürk, İlayda Destan; Kıdeyş, Ahmet Erkan; Department of Marine Biology and Fisheries (2015-10-07)
Spatial distribution and composition of zooplankton was studied in the southern Black Sea at 46 stations in July 2013. The southern Black Sea was examined as three different study areas namely; western, central and eastern regions. Each region was also examined as inshore and offshore to determine the difference in zooplankton communities. Additionally a DNA barcoding study was also performed with samples collected from seven stations in the southern Black Sea to generate a gene library of zooplankton speci...
NUTRIENT AND ORGANIC CARBON EXCHANGES BETWEEN THE BLACK AND MARMARA SEAS THROUGH THE BOSPORUS STRAIT
Polat, Çolpan; Tuğrul, Süleyman (2005-08-01)
ecent systematic chemical data, together with a new estimate of the water fluxes, permit the calculation of the total phosphorus (TP), nitrogen (TN) and organic carbon (TOC) exchanged between the Black and the Marmara Seas through the Bosphorus. Assuming the chemical concentrations of the exchanging waters to be constant on a yearly time scale, the estimated total annual fluxes are as follows.
Recent surficial shelf sediments of the Cilician Basin (Turkey), northeastern Mediterranean
Ediger, V; Evans, G; Ergin, M (1997-11-01)
The continental shelf of Mersin Bay forms the northwestern margin of the Adana-Cilician Basin; it extends from the Goksu delta (in the southwest) to the Seyhan-Tarsus-Ceyhan delta (in the northeast) and is narrower and steeper in the southwest than in the northeast.
Evolution of satellite derived mesoscale thermal patterns in the Black Sea
Sur, HI; Ilyin, YP (1997-01-01)
Infrared image sequences covering the Black Sea are examined to investigate the evolution of mesoscale structures on the sea surface during the warm seasons of 1991-1993. Wind induced surface mixing and convective mixing are responsible for producing many features. The influence of seasonal evolution of the cold intermediate water (CIW) on the vertical and surface structures of eddies, including cold anticyclonic ones in summer, is examined. The annual variations of the short and long wave structures accomp...
