GOSUD aims at assembling in-situ observations of the world ocean surface collected by a variety of ships and at distributing quality controlled datasets. At present time the variables considered by GOSUD are temperature and salinity. The GOSUD data are mostly collected using thermosalinographs (TSG) installed on research vessels, on commercial ships and in some cases on sailing exploration ships. GOSUD manages both near-real time (RT and NRT) data and delayed mode (DM-reprocessed) data. The GOSUD GDAC is hosted by the Coriolis data centre (France) and a back-up (permanent archived) is performed on a daily basis by NCEIS (NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information).

GO-SHIP, the Global Ocean Ship-Based Hydrographic Investigations Program, is conducting repeat hydrography with high accuracy high precision reference measurements of a variety of EOVs through the whole water column. A selection of continent-to-continent full depth sections are repeated at roughly decadal intervals. The data archive for CTD data and bottle data is currently at CCHDO, although the CTD data from European cruises are available at Seadatanet as well.

Moving 10-years analysis of Oxygen at Northeast Atlantic Ocean for each season: - winter: January-March, - spring: April-June, - summer: July-September, - autumn: October-December. Every year of the time dimension corresponds to the 10-year centred average of each season. Decades span from 1963-1972 until 2005-2014. Observational data span from 1963 to 2014. Depth range (IODE standard depths): -3000.0, -2500.0, -2000.0, -1750, -1500.0, -1400.0, -1300.0, -1200.0, -1100.0, -1000.0, -900.0, -800.0, -700.0, -600.0, -500.0, -400.0, -300.0, -250.0, -200.0, -150.0, -125.0, -100.0, -75.0, -50.0,-40.0, -30.0, -20.0, -10.0, -5.0, -0.0 Data Sources: observational data from SeaDataNet/EMODNet Chemistry Data Network. Description of DIVA analysis: Geostatistical data analysis by DIVA (Data-Interpolating Variational Analysis) tool. GEBCO 1min topography is used for the contouring preparation. Analyzed filed masked using relative error threshold 0.3 and 0.5 DIVA settings. Signal to noise ratio and correlation length were optimized and filtered vertically and a seasonally-averaged profile was used. Background field: the data mean value is subtracted from the data. Detrending of data: no, Advection consraint applied: no. Units: umol/l

Description of de desirable and recomended attributes for generating time-series of sea surface annual average temperature for the last 10, 50 and 100 yrs for the Mediterranean basin and for each NUTS region along the coast.

Specification of the desirable and recommended product attributes for generating time series of average annual sea-level rise for the last 50 and 100 yrs.

This dataset presents the estimated multiplication factor by which the frequency of flooding events of a given height in European tide gauges will change between 2010 and 2100, due to projected regional sea relative level rise under the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) 4.5 scenario. Values larger than 1 indicate an increase in flooding frequency. This dataset is derived from the Figure 13.25(b) of the Working Group I contribution to the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (http://www.climatechange2013.org/images/report/WG1AR5_ALL_FINAL.pdf). This dataset also contributes to an earlier version of the EEA Indicator "Global and European sea-level": https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/sea-level-rise-5/assessment.

Global Fishing Watch is working across the globe to provide governments and authorities with actionable reports and capacity building to help strengthen fisheries monitoring and compliance. Our global team of experts produce analyses to inform monitoring, control and surveillance of fisheries in five key areas: - Illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing - Transshipment - Port controls - Marine protected areas - Operation support Collaboration and information sharing are integral to achieving well-managed fisheries. By working with stakeholders and making analyses available to national, regional and intergovernmental partners, Global Fishing Watch is enabling fisheries agencies to make more informed and cost-efficient decisions. Topics: - Commercial fishing, Global Fishing Watch is harnessing innovative technology to turn transparent data into actionable information and drive tangible change in the way that fisheries are governed. - Transshipment, Through publicly sharing map visualisations and creating data and analysis tools, we seek to inform management and policy efforts and provide a more complete picture of transshipment at sea. - Marine protected areas, Global Fishing Watch is harnessing the data and technology revolution to support the effective design, management and monitoring of marine protected areas.

Specification of the desirable and recommended products attributes for generating spatial layers of sea mid-water and sea-bottom temperature for the last 10, 50 and 100 years for the Mediterranean basin and for each NUTS3 region along the coast.

The main aim of this product was to define the suitability of offshore sites in the area between the borders of France-Spain-Italy for wind farm development. The adopted approach classifies wind speed data by their level of suitability, ranging from a grade 5 for exclusion zones, to a grade 1 for areas deemed appropriate for wind farm development. The quality indexes adopted were based on mean and variation statistical measures taking into consideration both the expected energy potential and the corresponding variability.
