The Levantine Intermediate Water (LIW) circulation in the Algerian basin is studied by means of an analysis of the Mediterranean Oceanic Data Base (MODB). The results show that LIW circulates in the area following two seasonal branches: the first going northward along the western Sardinian coast and the second directly westward in the middle of the AlgeriardProven~al basin. This background information will be useful for future design of operational monitoring networks in the region.

Abstract

The Levantine Intermediate Water (LIW) circulation in the Algerian basin is studied by means of an analysis of the Mediterranean Oceanic Data Base (MODB). The results show that LIW circulates in the area following two seasonal branches: the first going northward along the western Sardinian coast and the second directly westward in the middle of the AlgeriardProven~al basin. This background information will be useful for future design of operational monitoring networks in the region.
