Vertical Fluxes of Water Mass and Nutrients in the Mediterranean Outflow Region Ingrid Wiedmann, Ingrid Puillat, Sdena Jamal Chioua, AriefRullyanto, Supervisors: Marc Gasser, Enric Pallas
Data: 27 stations (July 2009) • Temperature • Salinity • Pressure • U-velocity • V-velocity • Turbidity
Objective Mapping (Data interpolation) • Calculate Richardson Number • Calculate Vertical Mixing Coefficient / Vertical Density Diffusivity (Munk& Anderson, 1948) • Calculate Vertical Mixing Coefficient / Vertical Density Diffusivity (Sangra& Pelegri, 1998) Kma = Ksp =
Objective Mapping (Ex: Temperature) • Gridsize:50x50x141
