Sažetak
Coastal Zone Colour Scanner (CZCS)derived fields of pigment concentration were used in this paper to assess the Adriatic Sea response to a spatially heterogeneou swind. By observing changes in the pigment fields of the Northern Adriatic surface waters further evidence was sought for previously studied effect o fbura, a gusty katabatic wind of north-easterly direction. CZCS registered similarities and differences in response to three bura episodes were analysed using available wind and Po River discharge data and a mathematical model prediction of the wind-induced circulation. In comparing the modelling results with spaceborne observations the bura-induced gyre emerged as the mechanism responsible for particular change of spatial pattern observed in CZCS-detected radiance and derived pigment concentration field. In this process relative timing of bura episodes and availability of Po-supplied tracing material seem to be important.
