Abstract | The Meteor cruise M44/4 was substantial part of a joint ship programme in the Levantine and Ionian Seas. The topic of the combined hydrographical and biological research was the transient change of the Eastern Mediterranean ecosystem which is strongly influenced by the long term variability in the atmosphere. Though the Hydrosweep was operated during this cruise, no further acquisition information were provided. |
