Climate change impacts on sea surface temperature in the eastern mediterranean, levantine basin

Samuel-Rhoads, Y.; Zodiatis, George; Nikolaidis, A.; Hayes, D.; Georgiou, Georgios C.; Konnaris, G.; Nikolaides, Marios (2013)

Increases in sea surface temperatures (SSTs) have been recorded to occur globally, with the Mediterranean SSTs rising about twice as much as those of the global oceans. Here we analyse and compare satellite remote sensing ...
