| Abstract: | During two cruises of the MEDUZA experiment conducted in July 2003 and May 2005 various data were obtained over the deepest part of the southern Adriatic Pit. Temperature, salinity, light transmission and fluorescence were measured in July 2003. During May 2005, except CTD measure- ments the samples were taken for laboratory determination of phytoplankton pigments with HPLC technique. During both cruises irradiance and radiance were measured at 14 wavelengths in the range 340-715 nm with optical probe to about 100 m depth. Bad weather conditions during both cruises caused interruption of measurements that continued after 24 to 48 hours. Stormy conditions have resulted in a slightly different structure of the water column. In the periods of measurements recorded were diurnal rhythms in a series of parameters, caused by solar radiation cycles in the surface layers as well as fluctuations in the deeper layers under the influence of the internal tide. Meteorological conditions and changes in sea level are also described. The analysis included the principal component and correlation analysis between the measured and derived parameters in order to establish a link between the in-situ pigments and multispectral data. During both cruises diurnal vertical oscillations were observed in biotic and abiotic parameters. Chlorophyll pigments prevailed over other pigments preventing other pigments to be distinguished spectrally. Regression models for chlorophyll a were established from radiance and reflectance ratios.
