Spatio-temporal variability of SSS and SST in the western Mediterranean basin with the TRANSMED data
Résumé
Initiated by the CIESM and upgraded to the operational status within the HyMeX/MISTRALS program, the TRANSMED
initiative aimed at developing an autonomous and low-cost thermosalinometer system to record SSS (Sea Surface Salinity) and
SST (Sea Surface Temperature) while underway. The seven-year time series recorded from February 2012 till present between
France (Marseille) and Algeria yield an unprecedented insight in the basin-wide seasonal evolution of the Western Basin, up to
mesoscale features, and is used to validate the Copernicus Marine Service global operational system in the area.
