Characteristics of water level variations in the northern Levantine Sea have been investigated by reference to a sequence of hourly water level observations at Antalya and Iskenderun. Long and short period oscillations of non-tidal origin have been identified. Long-period oscillations (several days) correspond to variations in barometric pressure; the short-period oscillations (2.8 to 4.6 hours) can be attributed to seiche-like motions. The tidal oscillations are small in amplitude, with a spring range of 21 and 41 cm in Antalya and Iskenderun respectively. Tidal oscillations are dominated by semi-diurnal constituents. The seasonal fluctuations of monthly mean sea level show two maxima and two minima; the major minimum occurs in March and is followed by a... |

Characteristics of water level variations in the Sea of Marmara have been investigated. Long-period oscillations of non-tidal origin have been identified in the analysis. These oscillations are due to regular fluctuations of water level throughout the year caused by meteorological and oceanographic influences. Greater fluctuations are produced by local winds, river runoff and inflow from the Black Sea. These fluctuations increase rapidly in spring and early August, the latter due to Black Sea fresh water inflow. The data show the presence of small amplitude diurnal tidal variations. Far from the entrances to the straits, the Sea of Marmara is not affected by short period tidal oscillations of the neighbouring seas.The harmonic tidal constituents indicate... |
