Physical and chemical properties of seawater during 2013-2015 in the 400 m water column in the northern Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea.

This research investigated physical (temperature, salinity, and density) and chemical (dissolved oxygen, ammonium, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, and silicate) properties of offshore seawater in the Red Sea northern Gulf of Aqaba; Jordanian Site were measured during 2013-2015 to assess the temporal and seasonal variation of the upper 400 m of the water column. The study also investigated seasonal variations, assessing the relationships of temperature with physical and chemical parameters. The average value of temperature for all data was 23.
