Abstract

Investigates further the previously observed dichotomy in the Adriatic waters influenced by the Po river. An existing algorithm for pigment concentration retrieval has been improved and applied to the reprocessing of selected summer 1981 and winter 1981/1982 images of the Adriatic Sea. Analysis of the images reinforces the previous finding that two types of CZCS derived patterns can be observed on the Adriatic shelf: one, elongated, trapped along the Italian coastline ; and another wide, irregularly spread into the basin interior. Both may occur in summer and in winter.
