Oceanography of the Black Sea: a review of some recent results
Ozsoy, E; Unluata, U (1997-11-01)
A new synthesis of the Black Sea oceanography is presented, primarily based on studies carried out in the southern Black Sea, as well as on some recent work covering the entire basin, obtained in a new era of increasing cooperation between the riparian countries. A review of the physical environment is given. Seasonal and interannual climatic variability of the system are discussed in relation to its hydrology. Water mass variability and formation are studied, with emphasis on the inflow of Mediterranean wa...

Ocean acidification (OA) is a serious consequence of climate change with complex organism-to-ecosystem effects that have been observed through field observations but are mainly derived from experimental studies. Although OA trends and the resulting biological impacts are likely exacerbated in the semi-enclosed and highly populated Mediterranean Sea, some fundamental knowledge gaps still exist. These gaps are at tributed to both the uneven capacity for OA research that exists between Mediterranean countries,...

SEABIRDS OF THE NORTH EAST MEDITERRANEAN: SEABIRDS AS SENTINELS OF ECOSYSTEM HEALTH
Yapan, Batuhan Çağrı; Özkan, Korhan (null; 2017-10-13)
Seabirds are located at higher levels of marine food webs. Therefore, the distribution and abundance of seabird populations are important indicators of well-being of the marine ecosystems. North East Mediterranean Coast has high human activity like heavy industry and fisheries, whereas also hosts important environmental protection areas supporting regional biodiversity. Combination of those two contrasting features provides great opportunity to observe the effects of anthropogenic pressures on ecosystem hea...
PHYSICAL OCEANOGRAPHY OF THE EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN SEA
Akpinar, Anil; Yilmaz, Elif; Fach Salihoğlu, Bettina Andrea; Salihoğlu, Barış (null, Turkish Marine Research Foundation, 2016-01-01)
The Mediterranean basin-scale circulation can be described in terms of a surface inflow of Atlantic Water from the Atlantic Ocean entering through the Strait of Gibraltar and flowing eastward at the surface towards the eastern basin, and a return flow of intermediate water originating in the Levantine Basin at subsurface, proceeding towards Gibraltar and finally exiting into the Atlantic (Malanotte-Rizzoliet al.2014). However, the circulation of Atlantic Water in the eastern basin of the Mediterranean Sea i...
