The RADMED project is devoted to the implementation and maintenance of a multidisciplinary monitoring system around Spanish Mediterranean waters. This observing based on periodic cruises covering coastal waters, continental shelf slope waters some deep stations (>2000 m) from Westernmost Alboran Sea Barcelona in Catalan Sea, including Balearic Islands. was launched 2007 unifying extending previous projects which had more reduced geographical coverage. Some time series currently available...
Abstract. Employed for over a century, the traditional way of monitoring sea level variability by tide gauges – in combination with modern observational techniques like satellite altimetry is an inevitable ingredient studies climate scales and coastal seas. The development instrumentation, remote data acquisition, processing, archiving last decades has allowed extension applications to variety users hazard managers. Mediterranean Black seas are examples such transition while having long...
• Physical, chemical and isotopic models indicate the influence of groundwater. Morphological features control water salinity in enclosed coastal lagoons. Saltwater wedge position determines origin inputs During dry seasons, groundwater is responsible for maintenance these Coastal wetlands are among most productive ecosystems world, playing an important role defense wildlife conservation. These ecosystems, however, usually affected by human activities, which may cause a loss degradation...
Marine and atmospheric parameters, including temperature observations from surface to 80 m (at 6 depths) are measured since September 1973 on a higher-than-weekly frequency, at coastal station 4 km offshore L'Estartit (Costa Brava; NW Mediterranean). This constitutes the longest available uninterrupted oceanographic time series in Mediterranean Sea. The present contribution focuses observed climatic trends (°C/year) of air (AT; 0.05), sea (SST; 0.03), depth (S80T; 0.02) level (SL; 3.1...
Dense Shelf Water (DSW) cascading in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea is an important winter phenomenon for ventilation of deep-water ecosystems and modulation physical chemical properties deep waters. This study combines reanalysis data recent observations to explore drivers DSW formation cascading, across multiple spatial temporal scales.At subsynoptic scale, Gulf Lion area, action cold dry northern winds, named Tramuntana, freshwater inputs from rainfall, rivers, continental runoff...
Different works appearing during the last decade show that western Mediterranean has suffered a temperature and salinity increase 20th century. Most of these analyze long‐term trends in Levantine Intermediate Water (LIW) Western Deep (WMDW); those dealing with changes shallow coastal waters are very scarce. It is still an open question whether due to meteorological factors occurring or if they caused by water masses contributing deep formation. In this work we data obtained century (and...
The analysis of a 24-year time series Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) casts collected in the Balearic Channels (1996–2019) has allowed detecting and quantifying long-term changes water mass properties Western Mediterranean. For complete period, intermediate waters have experienced warming salting at rates 1.4°C/100yr 0.3–0.6/100yr for Intermediate Water, 1°C/100yr 0.3–0.4/100yr Levantine Water. density these two masses not changed. deep waters, defined as those denser than 29.1 kg/m 3 ,...
In a global context of climate change affecting the marine environment, it is important to consider effect extreme events in driving ecological and gain better understanding conditions be expected under future scenarios. this study we focus on monthly oceanographic data collected off Barcelona city during period 2002-2012, which air temperatures exceptional were reported western Mediterranean basin. These included two heat waves major episodes dense water formation that produced unusually...
This study analyses the water temperature changes in Lake Banyoles over past four decades. Banyoles, Spain’s second highest lake, situated western Mediterranean (NE Iberian Peninsula). Over 44 years, warming trend of lake’s surface waters (0.52 °C decade−1) and cooling its deep (−0.66 during summer (July–September) have resulted an increased degree stratification. Furthermore, stratification period is currently double that 1970s. Meanwhile, two decades, lake turbidity has remained constant...
