As a consequence, where convection typically gives rise to the Western Intermediate Waters (WIW) a New Western Mediterranean Deep Water (N-WMDW) was produced, slightly denser (+0.01kg m−3), warmer (+0.05ºC) and saltier (+0.03) than the usual WMDW. Moreover, near the continental slope, a cascading of colder and even denser water was found (-0.1ºC and +0.025 kg m−3), formed over the shelf (C-WMDW). In both cases it appears the high surface salinity as a responsible for the excess of density. The origin of this higher surface salinity is discussed | Descripción: | 38th CIESM Congress, Istanbul, Turkey.-- 1 page, 1 figure | Versión del editor: | http://ciesm.org/online/archives/abstracts/pdf/38/CIESM_Congress_2007_Istanbul_article_0197.pdf | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/150971 | Identificadores: | issn: 0373-434X |
