Winter trends in the northern Adriatic

Winter (February) phytoplankton blooms characterise the northern Adriatic. A significant decrease of winter phytoplankton abundance in the western part and an increase in the eastern one during the 1990-2007 period was observed. Furthermore, salinity and nutrient winter trends in the western and eastern part of the northern Adriatic differ as well. An interpretation of the observed changes was required.
