As a consequence, where convection typically gives rise to the Western Intermediate Waters (WIW) a New Western Mediterranean Deep Water (N-WMDW) was produced, slightly denser (+0.01kg m−3), warmer (+0.05ºC) and saltier (+0.03) than the usual WMDW. Moreover, near the continental slope, a cascading of colder and even denser water was found (-0.1ºC and +0.025 kg m−3), formed over the shelf (C-WMDW). In both cases it appears the high surface salinity as a responsible for the excess of density. The origin of this higher surface salinity is discussed Peer Reviewed 2017-06-06T12:06:16Z 2017-06-06T12:06:16Z 2007 2017-06-06T12:06:17Z informe técnico http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_18gh issn: 0373-434X Rapports et procès-verbaux des réunions - Commission internationale pour l'exploration scientifique de la mer Méditerranée 38: 197 (2007) http://hdl.handle.net/10261/150971 http://ciesm.org/online/archives/abstracts/pdf/38/CIESM_Congress_2007_Istanbul_article_0197.pdf Sí none International Commission for the Scientific Exploration of the Mediterranean Sea
