Comparison of high resolution hydrodynamic model outputs with in-situ Argo profiles in the Ionian Sea

Abstract: In-situ monitoring is an essential component for the development of hydrodynamic numerical models. Argo expansion into marginal seas has enabled the advancement of high resolution regional nested models through initialization, assimilation and validation processes. The SANI (Southern Adriatic-Northern Ionian) hydrodynamic model is a regional nested model producing high resolution outputs for the period 2008-2012. For the corresponding time period, 21 free drifting Argo floats recorded Temperature –Salinity (T/… Show more

“…Furthermore, the AW and BSW have depicted only a weak presence in the Cretan basin. Especially regarding AW, its absence from the Cretan Sea western boundaries is in agreement with previous studies reporting a general gradual reduction of the AW inflow in the Ionian that reaches a minimum in 2012 (Kassis et al, 2017;Kassis & Korres, 2020). In the following years, only a few profiles present a weak AW signal in the Western Cretan Straits mainly during 2014.…”

“…In this regard, the structuring of environmental monitoring programs, carried out through measurements of hydrological, limnological, topographic and cartographic variables, can be assisted through the use of the GIS (Geographic Information System), and a better understanding of spatial characteristics in a determined study area [11,[13][14][15][16]. For that reason, it can be stated that one can contribute to environmental suitability of subbasins [17,18].…”

“…Within the framework of the Mediterranean Argo (MedArgo) project, Greece supports Argo infrastructure and research activities with an increasing number of deployed floats [more information is available in Kassis et al (2014) and at http://www.greekargo.gr], thus improving the description and analysis of the circulation characteristics and thermohaline structure in the Aegean and Ionian Seas (Krokos et al, 2014;Velaoras et al, 2014;Kassis et al, 2015Kassis et al, , 2016Kassis et al, , 2017. In 2010, the Hellenic Centre for Marine Research (HCMR) procured and deployed a float to initiate the Greek Argo program.…”
