Marine biogeochemistry dynamics in coastal marine areas is strongly influenced by episodic events such as rain, intense winds, river discharges and anthropogenic activities. We evaluated in this study the importance of these forcing events on modulating seasonal changes in the marine biogeochemistry of the northwestern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, based on data gathered from a fixed coastal sampling station in the area. A 4-year (2011–2014) monthly sampling at four depths (0.5 m, 20 m, 50 m and 80 m) was performed to examine the time variability of several oceanographic variables: seawater temperature, salinity, inorganic nutrient concentrations (NO3−, PO43 − and SiO2), chlorophyll a (Chl a), dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM). FDOM dynamics was predominantly influenced by upwelling events and mixing processes, driven by strong and characteristic wind episodes. SW wind episodes favored the upwelling of deeper and denser waters into the shallower shelf, providing a surplus of autochthonous humic-like material and inorganic nutrients, whereas northerlies favored the homogenization of the whole shelf water column by cooling and evaporation. These different wind-induced processes (deep water intrusion or mixing), reported along the four sampled years, determined a high interannual environmental variability in comparison with other Mediterranean sampling sites
The continuity of the sampling program has been possible thanks to the funding of projects: ECOSER (CTM2011-15937-E), DOREMI (CTM2012-342949), SUAVE (CTM2014/23456/1) and ANIMA (CTM2015-65720) from the Spanish Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO) and the Grup de Recerca Consolidat 2014SGR1179 and 2014SGR1029 financed by the Agència de Gestió d'Ajuts Universitaris i de Recerca (AGAUR) from the Generalitat de Catalunya. F.L.A. benefited from a JAE-pre pre-doctoral fellowship (JAEPre_2011_00923) from the Agencia Estatal Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC). M.N.-C. was funded by the project FERMIO (MINECO, CTM2014-57334-JIN) co-financed with FEDER funds
