Sampling locations and depths across the western basin of the Mediterranean Sea. (a) Map of sampling stations (labelled black dots). The bottom depth is indicated for each station. Coastline and bathymetry from NOAA database (https://www.noaa.gov), using the ‘marmap’ package of R. (b) Potential temperature—salinity diagram (T–S) of all stations and cruises, colour scale corresponds to oxygen concentration (µmol kg−1). The water masses sampled are indicated: Levantine intermediate water (LIW), old western Mediterranean deep water (old WMDW) and Western Mediterranean Transition or bottom (WMT/bottom).
