• Linking abundance and distribution of small pelagic fishes with satellite-derived oceanographic parameters (SST, CHL, Wind, …)• Coupled physical–biological modelling for future studies of population connectivity in Alboran Sea

Main research lines in INRH

PhD thesis: Submesoscale processes in Strait of Gibraltar and NW Alboran Sea (Supervisor: Dr. Miguel Bruno, University of Cadiz)

1- Internal waves in the Strait of Gibraltar and their role in the vertical mixing processes within the Bay of Algeciras

2- Atlantic Jet fluctuations and its influence on the exchange between Algeciras Bay and Strait of Gibraltar

3- The importance of submesoscale processes for the exchange of properties through the Strait of Gibraltar

- Internal waves arrivals recorded in CTD and ADCP time-series along the submarine canyon

- Step-like patterns in density profiles within the Bay, indicative of notable vertical mixing activity both, in neap and spring tide conditions

- Mixing processes may be explained by the interaction between the local internal tide dynamics and the large amplitude internal waves entering the Bay

- Across-strait transport processes, divergences and convergences in the central zone of the Strait of Gibraltar, and smallscale circulation patterns along the northern coastal margin (cyclonic eddies).

- High-resolution (7 m) SST images acquired by air-borne hyper-spectral scanner, rhodamine-release experiments, moored and VM ADCP, …

- Characteristics of water masses in Algeciras bay seems to be connected with the inclination of the jet in the eastern section of the Strait of Gibraltar

- Tidal and subinertial variability

- HF radar surface currents data, SST data, CTD profiles, …
