Additional Activities

Medspiration is a project funded by ESA to produce a robust and reliable set of SST data by combining the best outputs from several independent SST missions

The Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) is organised as a partnership between regional groups responsible for generating SST products, to a common GHRSST specification, within a limited geographical area.

The GECA project is an ESA initiative (in collaboration with CEOS) for the global calibration and validation community.

Coriolis a project hosted by Ifremer, a member of our consortium.

Magic Seaweed is a website aimed at the global surfing community.

The Data INtegration System for Eutrophication Assessment (INSEA) in coastal waters is a project aimed at the analysis of excessive plant growth in coastal regions, caused by water bodies receiving excessive nutrients (e.g. nitrogen, phosphorous) assessment of coastal related activities which combine models with satellite and in-situ measurements.

The Prediction Of Waves, Wakes and Offshore Wind (POW'WOW) was an initiative funded by the European Commision to harmonise the approach to offshore wind and wave modelling and to help the wake research communities by establishing virtual laboratories (ViLabs), creating expert groups and setting up specialised workshops with a focus on key topics within the wake user community.

The Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS) is the oceanographic component of the Global Earth Observing System of Systems (GEOSS).

The Optimal Design of Observational Networks (ODON) was an initiative to develop new techniques for sea surface temperature observing systems in the Baltic and North seas.

COASTALT is a project funded by ESA, with the main objective to move pulse-limited coastal Altimetry towards an operational status by defining and testing a new coastal radar Altimeter product so that ESA can routinely generate and distribute the Envisat coastal Altimetry product.
