The oceanographic campaign BOUM<\/em> took place from 16 June to 20 July 2008<\/strong> in the western and eastern Mediterranean aboard the M\/O L'Atalante.<\/p>\r\n Its aim was to provide a longitudinal description of the biogeochemistry and biological diversity of the Mediterranean Sea, and to produce a detailed study of biological production and its fate in three sites representing, on a regional scale, the main characteristics of contrasting environments found in the oligotrophic ocean.<\/p>\r\n Most of the results have been published in a special issue of the European journal Biogeosciences: Interactions between planktonic organisms and the biogeochemical cycles of biogenic elements in the Mediterranean Sea during intense summer stratification: the BOUM experiment<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\r\n Editor(s): T.
