Oxygen consumption in the Eastern Mediterranean
Rates of oxygen consumption are determined by fitting simulated oxygen concentrations to observations from a medium-resolution survey of the Eastern Mediterranean in 1987 (METEOR cruise M5/6). The simulations are obtained with a previously described two-dimensional kinematic model of the sea, which...

| description | Rates of oxygen consumption are determined by fitting simulated oxygen concentrations to observations from a medium-resolution survey of the Eastern Mediterranean in 1987 (METEOR cruise M5/6). The simulations are obtained with a previously described two-dimensional kinematic model of the sea, which is newly calibrated using concurrent hydrographic and tracer data, and with oxygen consumption as a function of depth being parameterized following previous work. The consumption rate is obtained as
