Climate Change Summer sea surface temperatures
Water Masses 1 - Levantine Surface Water - LSW In the Levantine Basin LSW is the overtopping warmer and more saline surface layer, extending down to 40 m; occupying most of the surface layer of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea during the warm part of the year. It is the product of intense evaporation, with the salinity reaching maximum values of around 39.5 by the end of the summer, especially in the northwest Levantine and southeast Aegean Seas around Rhodos 2 - Atlantic water - AW The existence of AW is due to the influx of the Atlantic water through the Strait of Gibraltar 3 - Levantine Intermediate water - LIW The LIW is formed in the Levant Basin (off the Antalya) occupying the layer between 300 to 500 meters; it is warm and very saline; and affects the oceanography of the entire Mediterranean 4 - North Atlantic Deep water - NADW Deep Water—a deep water mass that spreads at about 200 meters below the Levantine Intermediate water that exits from the Gibraltar straits; is cooler and less salty than LIW, but it is warmer and saltier than the surface AW (and Modified Atlantic Water)
