Ten sea level tide Gauge stations are analyzed to investigate sea level variability dynamics at the Mediterranean Sea covering the 2009-2012 period. The analyses are based on separate tidal and nontidal part from observed sea level using classical harmonic analysis to show weather part is significantly contributing the observations. Sea level is co...

Context 1
... Mediterranean Sea which extends from 30oN to 46o N and from 6oW to 36.5oE is a semi enclosed basin connected to the Atlantic ocean through Gibraltar strait (Fig.1). Mediterranean Sea level changes are significantly affected by the exchange through Gibraltar strait, North Atlantic Oscillation Index (NAOI) and the Mediterranean local features (Menemenlis et al., 2007, Shaltout and Omstedt, 2012, Tsimplis et al., 2013and Landerer and Volkov, 2013. ...
Context 2
... level fluctuation analysis is based on separating the tidal part (astronomical tide) and non-tidal part (residual) to show weather part mostly contribute to the observed sea level. Moreover, the present paper analyze the observed sea level at ten stations well distributed in the Mediterranean Sea ( Fig.1) by knowing its relation with mean sea level pressure, surface thermal expansion, net precipitation rate, zonal wind, meridional wind, NAOI, river discharge and amount of bartropic flow through Gibraltar strait (Q o ). ...
