  • Glider HCMR

  • SeaDataNet Temperature and Salinity historical data collection for the North Arctic Ocean, including revised quality flags after quality control with ODV. For data access please register at http://www.marine-id.org The dataset format is ODV binary collections. You can read, analyse and export from the ODV application provided by Alfred Wegener institute at http://odv.awi.de/

  • ISMAR OS is a system around Italy and is composed by 11 fixed platforms, HF radars, a glider. The installations proposed for TNA embrace different marine environments and can be used independently. SiCO is a twin-mooring system placed is in a key area connecting the Eastern and Western Mediterranean Sea. Equipped with current profilers and CTD probes, it continuously monitor surface and intermediate exchange of water masses and properties between the basins. A pCO2 probe is installed in SiCO1 near the bottom to widen the contribution of the observatory to climate studies and ocean acidification research. The site is part of the CIESM Hydro-Changes Programme.

  • SeaDataCloud Temperature and Salinity historical data collection for the Arctic Ocean, including revised quality flags after quality control with ODV. The dataset format is ODV binary collections. You can read, analyse and export from the ODV application provided by Alfred Wegener institute at http://odv.awi.de/.

  • Data access will be provided in near real time and in delayed mode. Parameters include salinity, temperature, chlorophyll fluorescence, turbidity, oxygen, pH, pCO2, wave height and direction, current speed and direction and also in air data on temperature, irradiation and air pressure. Also data from laboratory analyses of water samples are included, e.g. chlorophyll, salinity, CDOM, coloured dissolved organic matter, phytoplankton abundance and biodiversity. Data is distributed through the Baltic Operational Oceanographic System, BOOS and through the Swedish Oceanographic Data Centre at SMHI. Data is accessible through download and through web services. Data and metadata is delivered through SMHI systems for distributing oceanographic data, e.g. http://sharkdata.smhi.se according to EU standards and procedures.

  • This autonomous platform is deployed at the mouth of the bay of Villefranche-sur-mer, (43°40’54.16”N; 07°19’10.48”E). It is moored over rocky bottom depth of 90 m. As no continental platform is present in this area, this site is under offshore influences, for physical parameters as well as for biological ones. Its equipment comprises: a meteorological station (station Vaisala WXT 520), a winch dedicated to ctd (temperature and salinity at the moment, extension to others sensors in the future) profiles. Core oceanographic parameters (temperature, salinity, fluorescence, dissolved oxygen) are acquired with a SeaBird SBE19 on an hourly basis at a fixed depth (1.5 m). A fixed pH sensor is deployed in a developmental phase of validation.

  • A 30-year (1971-2000) temperature and salinity climatology is presented for surface and near-bed regions of the NW European shelf seas, with a resolution of 1/6 longitude by 1/10 latitude. The data have been extracted from the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) data centre and supplemented by additional records from the World Ocean Data Centre (WODC). From the original data, which are irregularly distributed in space and time, the mean monthly temperature and salinity are calculated, as well as the climatic mean annual cycle. The climatology presented here is an improvement upon all existing climatologies presented in the literature for the NW European shelf; covering a wider area on a finer scale and including the surface and near-bed distribution of both temperature and salinity. Comparison of our data with existing climatologies shows good agreement, with differences occurring where our climatology is an improvement. This climatology, which will prove to be valuable to many users in the marine community will be regularly updated and made available to all users via the ICES data centre.

  • The data collection of the North Sea is divided in two datasets : the discrete collection and the trajectories collection. The Discrete SeaDataCloud Temperature and Salinity Historical Data Collection for the North Sea includes open access in situ data on temperature and salinity measured with “discrete” instruments (CTD, XBT, discrete water samplers…). The data span between 4°W and 10°E in longitude, and from 49°N to 62°N in latitude. It covers the time period 1893 – 2017. The data were retrieved from the SeaDataNet infrastructure in November 2017. The “Trajectories” SeaDataCloud Temperature and Salinity Historical Data Collection for the North Sea includes open access in situ data on temperature and salinity measured by continuously recording sensors (e.g. Ferryboxes). The data span between 4°W and 10°E in longitude, and from 49°N to 62°N in latitude. It covers the time period 1989 – 2017. The data were retrieved from the SeaDataNet infrastructure in November 2017. The quality control of the data has been performed with the help of ODV software. Data Quality Flags have been revised following common recommended procedures defined under SeaDataNet 2 project in conjunction with visual expert check. The dataset format is ODV binary collections. You can read, analyse and export from the ODV application provided by Alfred Wegener institute at http://odv.awi.de/. For data access please register at http://www.marine-id.org/.

  • The SeaDataCloud TS historical data collection V2 for the North Atlantic Ocean, includes open access in situ data on temperature and salinity of water column in the North Atlantic Ocean from 10°N to 62°N, including the Labrador Sea, The data were retrieved from the SeaDataNet infrastructure at summer 2019. The dataset format is Ocean Data View (ODV - http://odv.awi.de/) binary collection. The quality control of the data has been performed with the help of ODV software. Data Quality Flags have been revised and set up using the elaborated by SeaDataNet2 project QC procedures in conjunction with the visual expert check. The final number of the Temperature and Salinity profiles (stations) in the collection is 10119755. For data access please register at http://www.marine-id.org/.

  • SYKE Alg@line project in the Baltic Sea monitors the state of the sea and detects algal blooms. Several millions of data points are collected annually from the Baltic Sea, using a fleet of 5-7 ferries. Two best equipped ferries offered in TNA are m/s Silja Serenade, which travels daily between Helsinki and Stockholm (Sweden) and m/s Finnmaid, which travels approx. twice a week from Helsinki to Travemünde (Germany) and back. Both ferries are equipped with flow-through system with thermosalinograph, chlorohyll, phycocyanin and CDOM fluorometers, turbiditymeter and refrigerated sampling unit providing discrete water samples for laboratory analyses (e.g. microscopy, flowCAM, nutrients, optical analysis, experimental work). Additional sensors e.g. for primary production (FRRF) and light reflectance are used periodically, new sensors for light absorption and pCO2 will be soon implemented. Data can be retrieved in real time using satellite or GSM connection (basic sensors) or downloaded during harbour visits (additional sensors). Alg@line data is available e.g. through MyOcean and has also been delivered to users based on mutual cooperation, including scientific advice. Algaline ships maintained by SYKE host measurement systems from other countries, and periodically they are used as platforms for international short-term studies.
