Figure 5B-4 provides profiles of the ARVOR-L Profiling Float in the Mediterranean Sea. The left profile shows the change in temperature (°C) with depth. The right profile shows the change in salinity (psu) with depth. The data was collected on 21 November 2020, a week after the data collected from the Atlantic sample in Figure 5B-2.
