Short summary
Between 2023 and 2024, the northern Adriatic Sea experienced extreme surface freshening driven by storms, heavy rainfall and river flooding. Using high-frequency in-situ data, satellite imagery, and Copernicus Marine Service products, this study traces the evolution, causes, and ecological impacts of these events. Salinity dropped to 15 g/kg, triggering stratification, turbidity peaks, and algal blooms. Findings stress the need for integrating autonomous monitoring into operational services.
