Chl-a content dependent on wind conditions; measured and from GlobColour, (a) daily measured mean Chl-a values relationship with mean wind magnitude and predominant wind direction in 5 days prior to the measurement; the blue box highlights two days shown in detail in panels (b) and (c), (b) depth-averaged Chl-a values measured on 27th of Mar 2021, (c) depth-averaged Chl-a values measured on 2nd of Apr 2021, (d) Chl-a values from all measurements at each sampling site as function of depth, (e) mean Chl-A from all measurements and depth-averaged at each site, (f) mean daily GlobColour Chl-a anomalies relationship with wind magnitudes 5 days prior to the observation; red line – 7.5 m/s wind magnitude, (g) areas around KGI in which U-test revealed a significant disparity between GlobColour Chl-a anomalies after westerly/easterly wind forcing; red areas – a significantly higher Chl-a values after westerly winds; white areas – no significant relation; grey areas – no data.
