Twenty-four years of AVHRR-derived sea surface temperature (SST) data (1985–2008) and 35 years of NOCS (V.2) in situ-based
SST data (1973–2008) were used to investigate the decadal scale variability of this parameter in the Mediterranean Sea in
relation to local air–sea interaction and large-scale atmospheric variability. Satellite and in situ-derived data indicate
a strong eastward increasing sea surface warming trend from the early 1990s onwards. The satellite-derived mean annual warming
rate is about 0.037°C year–1 for the whole basin, about 0.026°C year–1 for the western sub-basin and about 0.042°C year–1 for the eastern sub-basin over 1985–2008. NOCS-derived data indicate similar variability but with lower warming trends for
both sub-basins over the same period. The long-term Mediterranean SST spatiotemporal variability is mainly associated with
horizontal heat advection variations and an increasing warming of the Atlantic inflow. Analysis of SST and net heat flux inter-annual
variations indicates a negative correlation, with the long-term SST increase, driving a net air–sea heat flux decrease in
the Mediterranean Sea through a large increase in the latent heat loss. Empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis of the
monthly average anomaly satellite-derived time series showed that the first EOF mode is associated with a long-term warming
trend throughout the whole Mediterranean surface and it is highly correlated with both the Eastern Atlantic (EA) pattern and
the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) index. On the other hand, SST basin-average yearly anomaly and NAO variations
show low and not statistically significant correlations of opposite sign for the eastern (negative correlation) and western
(positive correlation) sub-basins. However, there seems to be a link between NAO and SST decadal-scale variations that is
particularly evidenced in the second EOF mode of SST anomalies. NOCS SST time series show a significant SST rise in the western
basin from 1973 to the late 1980s following a large warming of the inflowing surface Atlantic waters and a long-term increase
of the NAO index, whereas SST slowly increased in the eastern basin. In the early 1990s, there is an abrupt change from a
very high positive to a low NAO phase which coincides with a large change in the SST spatiotemporal variability pattern. This
pronounced variability shift is followed by an acceleration of the warming rate in the Mediterranean Sea and a change in the
direction (from westward to eastward) of its spatial increasing tendency. 相似文献

The impact of the Black Sea Water (BSW) inflow on the circulation and the water mass characteristics of the North Aegean Sea
is investigated using a high-resolution 3D numerical model. Four climatological numerical experiments are performed exploring
the effects of the exchange amplitude at the Dardanelles Straits in terms of the mean annual volume exchanged and the amplitude
of its seasonal cycle. Larger inflow of low salinity BSW influences the water characteristics of the whole basin. The largest
salinity reduction is encountered in the upper layers of the water column, and the most affected region is the northeastern
part of the basin. The winter insulation character of the BSW layer (low-salinity layer) is reduced by the seasonal cycle
of the inflow (minimum during winter). The maximum atmospheric cooling coincides with the minimum BSW inflow rate, weakening
the vertical density gradients close to the surface and thus facilitating the vertical mixing. The inflow rate of BSW into
the North Aegean Sea constitutes an essential factor for the circulation in the basin. Increased inflow rate results into
considerably higher kinetic energy, stronger circulation and reinforcement of the mesoscale circulation features. Although
the position of the front between BSW and waters of Levantine origin does not vary significantly with the intensity of the
BSW inflow rate, the flow along the front becomes stronger and more unstable as the inflow rate increases, forming meanders
and rings. The changes in the intensity of BSW inflow rate overpower the wind and thermohaline forcing and largely determine
the general circulation of the North Aegean Sea. 相似文献
