Fig. 3: Maximum changes in total suspended solids concentration (TSS), chlorophyll-a concentration (Chl-a) and Secchi disk depth (SDD) between 6 June and 5 July 2023 after the Kakhovka Dam breach, compared to the average values in the week before the dam breach.
From: The biogeochemical response of the north-western Black Sea to the Kakhovka Dam breach
a Spatial distribution of maximum TSS changes, b profiles of the mean TSS in the week before the dam breach, the maximum TSS between 6 June and 5 July 2023, and the maximum change in TSS (in times). c spatial distribution of maximum Chl-a changes, d profiles of the mean Chl-a in the week before the dam breach, the maximum Chl-a between 6 June and 5 July 2023, and the maximum change in Chl-a (in times). e spatial distribution of maximum SDD changes, f profiles of the mean SDD in the week before the dam breach, the minimum SDD between 6 June and 5 July 2023, and the maximum change in SDD (in times). The location of the profiles in b, d, f is indicated by the white dashed line in a, c, e, respectively.
