The SWOT KaRIn Level-3 Wind Wave product (L3_LR_WIND_WAVE) is an innovative product derived from the Unsmoothed L3_LR_SSH product (DOI: 10.24400/527896/A01-2024.003), which is based on the algorithm presented by Ardhuin et al. (2024). L3_LR_WIND_WAVE takes advantage of the KaRIn Low Rate (LR) chain's ability to resolve waves with wavelengths greater than 500 meters (approximately 18 seconds) and provides detailed information on the characteristics of these wave regimes. This includes significant wave height (SWH), dominant wavelength, and wave propagation direction. These regimes are associated with long-period swells and extreme events that play a critical role in ocean dynamics, coastal processes, and maritime operations. The SWOT L3_LR_WIND_WAVE product is organized into two subproducts, "Light" and "Extended". The L2_LR_SSH "Light" product is described in this metadata sheet. The "Light" L3_LR_WIND_WAVE (also known as the "lightweight" product) includes the SWOT L3_LR_SSH 250-m SSHA spectrum, corrected for instrumental effects and expressed in both Cartesian and polar coordinates. It also includes the swell partition of the spectrum and the wave parameters integrated over this partition, for both the WW3 model and the KaRIn model (significant wave height, wavelength, and direction). The "Extended" L3_LR_WIND_WAVE includes the aforementioned variables plus the WW3 spectrum in the same frequency grid as the KaRIn spectrum and the KaRIn transfer functions used for correction, as well as some parameters derived from KaRIn observations (e.g., coherence, mean backscatter).

Tidal ranges on the French coasts of the Channel and the Atlantic for a coefficient of 95 : tidal range for mean neap tides for average atmospheric conditions..

The objective of this tender is to examine the current data collection, observation and data assembly programmes in the Meditterranean Sea, identify gaps and to evaluate how they can be optimised.

A 40-minute tutorial to use OGC webservices offered by the Mission Atlantic GeoNode in your data analysis. The workshop makes use of Python Notebooks and common GIS Software (ArcGIS and QGIS), basic knowledge of Python and/or GIS software is recommended. • Introduction to OGC services • Search through metadata using the OGC Catalogue Service (CSW) • Visualize data using OGC Web Mapping Service (WMS) • Subset and download data using OGC Web Feature and Coverage Services (WFS/WCS) • Use OGC services with QGIS and/or ArcGIS

MISSION ATLANTIC assesses the whole Atlantic, and ecosystem components at risk from natural hazards and the consequences of human activities, including individual regional Case Studies, and their interconnectivity. To do this, Mission Atlantic develops IEAs for seven regional Case Studies, in sub-Arctic and Tropical regions of the Atlantic Ocean, ranging from shelf seas to the mid-Atlantic Ridge: 1) Norwegian Sea 2) Celtic Sea 3) Canary Current 4) North Mid Atlantic Ridge 5) South Mid Atlantic Ridge 6) Benguela Current 7) South Brazilian Shelf

Data from a number of different sources have been integrated to provide new perspectives on fishing activities. Vessel Monitoring Systems (VMS) record and transmit the position and speed of fishing vessels at intervals of two hours or less. Fishing time can be calculated from the VMS data and combining this parameter with vessel logbook data, maps of fishing effort and intensity at different spatial and temporal scales can be calculated. The statistical software package “R” is used to extract the required information then re-interrogated to produce maps of fishing effort or intensity per month and year. The use of Automatic Identification System (AIS) data was not considered as combining AIS data with fisheries logbook data would pose issues namely; the ability of the AIS system to be switched off, only mandatory on vessels > 15 meters in length, cost involved to purchase data, and confidentiality.
