\section{Adriatic Sea morphology and bathymetry}  The Adriatic Sea is a latitudinally elongated continental  basin, with length and width of 800 km and 180 km respectively and with its major axis oriented along the northwest–southeast direction. It is located in the central Mediterranean, between the Appennines chain and the Balkans. Its northern section is very shallow Balkans  andgently sloping, with an average bottom depth of about 35 m. The middle Adriatic  is 140 m deep on average, with the two Pomo Depressions reaching 260 m. The southern section is characterized by a wide depression more than 1200 m deep. The water exchange with connected to  the Mediterranean Ionian  Sea takes place through by  the 74 km wide  Otranto Channel, whose sill is 800 m deep.  The eastern coast is generally high and rocky, whereas the western coast is low and mostly sandy. A large number of rivers discharge into the basin, with signif- icant influence on the circulation, particularly relevant being the Po River in the northern basin, and the en- semble of the Albanian rivers in the southern basin. strait.  Its northern section is very shallow and gently sloping, with an average bottom depth of about 35 m.  The middle  Adriatic(Fig. 1)  is 140 m deep on average, with  the most continental basin in two Pomo Depressions reaching 260 m.   The southern section is characterized by a wide depression more than 1200 m deep.
