Abstract
The aim of this work is to develop a computer
model capable of simulating the water mass circulation in the Aegean Sea. There
is historical, phenomenological and recent experimental evidence of important
hydrographical features whose causes have been variably identified as the highly
complex bathymetry, the extreme seasonal variations in temperature, the
considerable fresh water fluxes, and the large gradients in salinity or
temperature across neighbouring water masses (Black Sea and Eastern
Mediterranean). In the approach taken here, physical processes are introduced
into the model one by one. This method reveals the parameters responsible for
permanent and seasonal features of the Aegean Sea circulation. In the first part
of the work reported herein, wind-induced circulation appears to be seasonally
invariant. This yearly pattern is overcome by the inclusion of baroclinicity in
the model in the form of surface thermohaline fluxes. The model shows an
intricate pattern of sub-basin gyres and locally strong currents, permanent or
seasonal, in accord with the experimental evidence.
