Modeling the buoyancy-driven Black Sea Water outflow into the North Aegean Sea

A three-dimensional numerical model was applied to simulate the Black Sea Water (BSW) outflux and spreading over the North Aegean Sea, and its impact on circulation and stratification–mixing dynamics. Model results were validated against satellite-derived sea surface temperature and in-situ temperat...
