Recent Publication: Variability of the Red River Plume in the Gulf of Tonkin as Revealed by Numerical Modeling and Clustering Analysis

Vietnamese and French researchers from LEGOS, LOG and VAST investigated the daily to interannual variability of the Red River plume in the Gulf of Tonkin using 6-year (2011-2016) high-resolution numerical simulations. Their results show that the temporal evolution of the plume surface coverage is correlated with runoff (with a lag), but that runoff alone cannot […]

Recent publication : Oxygen budget of the north-western Mediterranean deep- convection region.

Caroline Ulses, Claude Estournel, Marine Fourrier, Laurent Coppola, Faycal Kessouri, Dominique Lefevre, Patrick Marsaleix; 2021 Biogeosciences 18(3):937-960 DOI:10.5194/bg-18-937-2021 The north-western Mediterranean deep convection plays a crucial role in the general circulation and biogeochemical cycles of the Mediterranean Sea. The DEWEX (DEnse Water EXperiment) project aimed to better understand this role through an intensive observation platform […]
