Objective

The PERLE (Pelagic Ecosystem Response in the Levant Experiment) cruises of the MISTRALS MERMEX programme implementation plan aim to describe the formation and dispersion of Levantine Intermediate Water (LIW), and determine its role in structuring the planktonic ecosystem in the eastern Mediterranean. A series of cruises aim to study the key periods of the annual cycle from both a physical and biogeochemical point of view. These periods are pre-conditioning (PERLE 1), formation of dense water by mixing (PERLE 2) and dispersion of LIW (PERLE 3). These complete but discrete observations are supplemented by a set of physical and biogeochemical parameters collected by autonomous platforms (mooring lines; profiling floats; gliders; drifting buoys), satellite imagery, as well as other oceanographic campaigns conducted by Greek, Turkish and Israeli partners. This set will make it possible to test and improve modelling at regional level (Levantine basin), but also at large scale (Mediterranean).
