The gap analysis of observing systems presented in this report is focused on the evaluation of the continuum between coastal observations and open ocean observations (including the shelf-break transition region). Some recommendations are suggested with the aim of improving the efficiency of existing observing systems in coastal and open ocean regions. Gaps in Observing networks, Data availability, Sustainability and Technology are considered. Main recommendations following identified gaps can be summarized as: - The spatial coverage of observing networks need to be improved between the near-coast and open ocean observing systems. - The general lack of observations over the shelf break and the continental shelf can be improved based on opportunity... |

Rivers are primary receiving environments for agricultural runoff and for domestic and industrial discharges. Rivers assimilate and treat incoming pollution load until self-purification capacity is reached. The remaining pollution load and natural nutrients are carried to and discharged into the sea causing variations in the receiving area's nutrient concentration. This study evaluated nutrient loads and effects of the Asi River on the northeastern Mediterranean Sea. Monitoring data from 2006 to 2014 from the State of Hydraulic Works of Turkey were analyzed with an interpolation-based average-estimator model for nutrient load calculation. The nutrient load's impact on the receiving area was determined using satellite images. Annual nitrite (NO2), nitrate... |
