The investigation is based on data collected between the eastern Algerian Basin and the Strait of Sicily and in the southern Tyrrhenian Sea. The major pathways of water masses are identified by the core method and geostrophic currents are derived from the objectively analysed density field. Between the Sardinia Channel and the Strait of Sicily, the large-scale circulation of Modified Atlantic Water and Winter Intermediate Water is found to be cyclonic. Inflow into the gyre occurs via the Sardinia Channel by means of a boundary current attached to the Algerian coast, and from the northern Tyrrhenian. The outflow is accomplished via the Strait of S;icily and to the Tyrrhenian. The Levantine intermediate water flow resembles that of Modified Atlantic... |

Recent studies have provided a better understanding of carbonate system parameters and their spatial and temporal variability in several areas of the Mediterranean Sea. This study uses a new dataset that covered the entire Algerian Basin during the summer of 2014 (SOMBA cruise) to describe the distribution of carbonate system parameters. The findings show that almost the entire basin was a source of CO2 to the atmosphere during the studied period. Besides the well-known TrOCA (Tracer combining Oxygen, Carbon and total Alkalinity) approach, the study proposes new parametrization for the standard back calculation method to assess the anthropogenic carbon concentration. The results of both approaches yield similar distributions and concentration ranges... |
