Description
The research Program MareChiara was launched by SZN in 1984 for the study of the coastal pelagic system in the Gulf of Naples with the aim of investigating the structure and functioning of planktonic communities in relation to the environmental variability and climate change. The sampling site LTER-MC is located 2 miles offshore the city of Naples, on the 75 m isobath, at the border between the coastal eutrophic system influenced by land runoff and the offshore oligotrophic waters with characteristics of the southern Tyrrhenian Sea. LTER-MC belongs to the Italian (LTER-Italia), European (E-Europe) and International (I-LTER) networks of Long Term Ecological Research and is one of the few Mediterranean sites for the regular monitoring of marine plankton
