Mediterranean climate and oceanography, and the periodic development of anoxic events (sapropels)
Mediterranean sapropels are layers with elevated organic carbon concentrations that
contrast with surrounding sediments, which are organic poor. Sapropels occur (quasi-) …

Nutrient budget for the Eastern Mediterranean: Implications for phosphorus limitation
The eastern Mediterranean has a high nitrate to phosphate (N: P) ratio (~ 28: 1) in the deep

Why is the Eastern Mediterranean phosphorus limited?
The Eastern Mediterranean Sea (EMS) is a relatively small ocean basin with an unusually
high nitrate to phosphate ratio in the deep waters (∼ 28: 1). As a consequence, the typical …
