Objective The general objective is to study the ocean's responses to changes in the environment induced by human activity. This mainly involves observing and predicting changes in a biogeochemical cycle of carbon and its associated elements in order to determine the ocean's response to the increase in carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations in the atmosphere and to other sensitive elements like some trace metals. Means used: Carrying out time series of monthly monitoring of hydrological and biogeochemical variables on an observation site (DYFAMED). The INSU's DYFAMED observation service, head scientist, J.C. MARTY, CNRS, BP 08, 06238 Villefranche sur mer (marty@obs-vlfr.fr). The INSU's observation service gathers several teams from the oceanographic laboratory of Villefranche (Observatoire Océanologique de Villefranche) and the AIEA marine environment laboratory in Monaco. The dates of days at sea (monthly cruises of an average of 3 days/month) were: from 14 to 18 February, from 10 to 14 March, from 8 to 10 April, from 13 to 15 May, from 15 to 17 June, from 7 to 11 July, from 1 to 3 August, from 1 to 3 September, from 20 to 22 October, from 27 November to 1 December and from 13 to 15 December. The site is located in the central part of the Ligurian Sea. The reference point is located at 123 of Cap Ferrat, 28 nautical miles away from this cape (ie, precisely at 43 deg 25,400' N and 07 deg 51,800' E). The study zone was defined with the maritime prefecture of Toulon for all studies: monthly series, moorings, buoys with instruments.
