Sea circulation

The large-scale circulation of the Mediterranean Sea has been described as sub-basin-scale and mesoscale gyres interconnected and bounded by currents and jets with strong seasonal and inter-annual variability. This general circulation flow impinges on the coastal regions and strongly influences the local dynamics of currents. (From COCONET Offshore windfarms database)
