Figure 2

(a) Climatological seasonal mixed layer depth (m) on the NW Mediterranean (see text for definition) computed by the model for the 2000–2015 period. Black circles mean daily value, gray lines standard deviation range. (b) Mean mixed layer depth (m) during the convective period (from day 18 to day 110) during the simulation period (2000–2015). (c) Accumulated number of days during the simulation period (2000–2015) in which the mixed layer depth exceed the 1000 m threshold. (d) Scatter plot of the mean mixed layer depth distribution (panel b) versus the mean MODIS surface chlorophyll map during the blooming period (Fig. 1b). Maps were created by the authors using MATLAB software vR2014b (https://it.mathworks.com/products/matlab/matlab-graphics.html).
