Oceanographic data is available in real time and delayed mode from across the NOMOS facilities. Including physical and biogeochemical variables from platforms such as moorings, floats, ferryboxes and coastal stations. The data can be accessed through Bulgarian Oceanographic Data Centre. In addition a variety of interactive tools to help visualize the data are available through the BGODC website. All data are available for download.

SMARTBUOY is an autonomous data buoy used by SBI and the MI for testing environmental and meteorological sensors and to efficiently collect metocean time series. All data is transferred to the MI via a variety of wireless communication options and onto users through the MI online data portal or specialized access. Different mooring designs are adaptable to any specific testing environment; the buoy allows for easy integration of sensors and instruments into the available power and data transmission facilities, with deployment in air, at the ocean surface or deeper in the water column. The buoy is part of the Galway Bay Marine And Renewable Energies Test Site (GB MARETS), previously known as SmartBay Marine Test and Validation Facility (SMARTBAY TDS)

NOMOS is a system designed to allow the real-time assessment of weather and marine conditions in the western part of Black Sea and to support sustainable development of the Bulgarian Black Sea coast and EEZ. It consists of several subsystems. The proposed NOMOS’s installations for TNA are GALATA and POMOS. GALATA is built on a fixed, unmanned, earth gas production platform, located in western part of the Black Sea on the Bulgarian shelf 26 km east from the city of Varna and aim to provide real time oceanographic data. The system collects data with minimum components to maximize the use of existing facilities: weather station, water temperature, conductivity, DO, chlorophyll and ADCP.

SOCIB Fixed Platform

The seabed cabled observatory EMSO-Molène was deployed off shore 2 km north of Molène in the marine protected area “Iroise Marine Park”. MOLENE is an EMSO testing site at depth 18 meters, dedicated to sensors and equipment in-situ and long-term qualification. The instrumental module is a removable device that includes the electronic core of the observatory: the “Node” and the “Junction Box”. The Node inputs an optical signal and converts it into electrical. On the node output, the Junction Box relays instructions, collects data, protects the equipment in case of electrical malfunction and provides failure warnings. Remote control of the instruments and data recovery. Network throughput: 1 Gbit/s between the sensors and the relay station, restricted between the island and Brest. A land-based server transmits data to the subscriber. Data time stamping: GPS clock, NTP/PTP Network, Network Attached Storage. Available for the instruments: 6 identical inputs (Subconn MCBH12M, Micro Bulkhead, 12 contacts), voltage: 15V and 48V, power supplied for the 6 connections: 75 W under 15V and 75W under 48V. Seawater physico-chemical measurements are performed by the platforms on the site (high frequency sampling).

POSEIDON is an operational marine monitoring, forecasting and information system for the Greek Seas. The observing component is a distributed infrastructure made by three coastal buoys (Saronikos buoy-SB, Heraklion Coastal Buoy-HCB and Athos buoy-AB) and one FerryBox (PFB). A calibration laboratory is supporting the observing activities. The Saronikos buoy is equipped with meteo, T, C/S, wave sensors and current meter, is moored in one of the most eutrophic areas in Greece greatly affected by the effluents sewage treatment plant of Psitalia and the Anthropogenic activities in the wider Athens -Piraeus urban environment. HAB’s are frequent in some parts of the Gulf while clear trophic gradients are observed.
