Description
Numerical modelling has not yet offered satisfactory description of the functioning of the Adriatic/ Ionian and Levantine system.
So far, the explanation for the inversion of the near-surface circulation has been mainly sought in the wind stress curl.
Recent results have however suggested that the wind forcing cannot explain such inversions.
Scientific objective of this study is to show from physical modelling that the inversions of the NIG circulation
in an idealized Adriatic-Ionian/ Eastern Mediterranean circulation system can be generated
only bu changing the inflowing water density (from the Adriatic) with respect to the residing water in the Ionian basin.
