Sažetak
In 1953, Buljan published the first detailed study on the salinity variability in the Adriatic Sea ( “Fluctuations of salinity in the Adriatic”). Analyzing several oceanographic campaigns from 1875 to 1949, he hypothesized a mechanism called “Adriatic Ingression” at the base of the salinity oscillations in the Adriatic Sea. Here, the effects associated with the Adriatic ingressions are more appropriately explained by the recently discovered Bimodal Oscillating System (BiOS) mechanism, connecting the change of salinity with the circulation in the Ionian Sea. Our analysis is corroborated by the physical, biogeochemical and biological observations carried out in the past 130 years.
