COSYNA

COSYNA provides near real-time data from integrated observations and model results. The observations comprise a variety of in situ techniques (e.g. FerryBox, Gliders, Cabled Underwater Observatories) as well as remote sensing from shore by radar and from space by satellite. Key physical, sedimentary, geochemical and biological parameters are observed at high temporal resolution in the water column and the upper and lower boundary layers.

COSYNA’s modelling part consists of nested models with different grid sizes for hydrography (salinity, waves, currents), for suspended matter and for biogeochemical and ecosystem processes. Sophisticated data assimilation procedures, i.e. continuous corrections of the models by observations, improve the reliability of now-casts and short-term forecasts. All data and plots are generally available for download through the data portal (http://codm.hzg.de/codm/).

FerryBox data can be directly accessed via the data portal ferrydata.hzg.de where different vizualizaton tools are available (e.g. single transect, pool data along a certain transect for a longer time period or time-series at certain locations). Furthermore, all datasets can be exported in ASCII (tab separated tables) or NetCDF format and downloaded.

COSYNA’s motivation is bridging the gap between operational oceanography and the various users of forecasts of the marine state. For further outreach to stakeholders and the wider community an app has been developed for the most common platforms.
