Copernicus Marine Service

Last month, we held our 8th #CopernicusMarine General Assembly❗️     Nearly 1,000 participants from 106 countries joined us online to review past achievements and outline strategies for 2024.     Key themes included developing our service based on user and policy needs, collaborating with other services and Member States, and strengthening our National Collaboration Programme 🌊     Discover more key highlights from the event 👇  https://lnkd.in/etm-JQkB

The 3rd edition of the Digital Ocean Forum #DOF2024 recently took place in #Brussels 🇧🇪     It brought together representatives from five EU Commission Directorates-General (DG): DG Research & Innovation, DG Defence Industry and Space, DG Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, DG Environment, and DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology.    During the event, the pre-operational European Digital Twin Ocean #EUDTO 🌐 was introduced to the DG's for the first time.     This groundbreaking tool harnesses #AI and ocean data to support the implementation of 🇪🇺 environmental protection policies 🌊 and marks a significant step towards sustainable ocean management     Read more at 👇  https://lnkd.in/e7whCjb3

🚨 New call for tender! 🎯 Its goal: providing observation products to be integrated into the Copernicus Marine Service. The selected services, called Thematic Assembly Centres (TACs), will provide high-quality real-time and delayed-time ocean products for the global ocean and European regional seas.

🚨 New call for tender! 🎯Its goal: providing Ocean analysis & forecasting products to be integrated into the Copernicus Marine Service. The selected services, called “Monitoring and Forecasting Centres” (MFC), will provide real-time and delayed-time physical, biogeochemical and sea ice model products for the global ocean and European regional seas.

¿Sabías que 🛰️ #Copernicus ofrece datos libres y abiertos con información precisa y actualizada para el monitoreo del huracán #Beryl? Este huracán atlántico, de categoría 5, es el más temprano e intenso del que se tenga registro.   Uno de los objetivos del Centro CopernicusLAC Panamá es apoyar la asimilación de los datos EO de Copernicus en la región LAC, aumentando las capacidades para la reducción del riesgo de desastres y la resiliencia al cambio climático.   Más información: https://lnkd.in/gnPyAmA7   ⬇️ Este #dataviz, basado en datos de Copernicus Marine Service, muestra la trayectoria del huracán Beryl a través del Mar Caribe en los próximos días.

Wow! That is one large phytoplankton bloom 😮 This image was captured from space by the #Copernicus Sentinel-3's Ocean and Land Colour Instrument on 27 June in the #BalticSea. The bloom is likely caused by cyanobacteria, which are a seasonal occurrence in the region and can be exacerbated by nutrient run off from land. These blooms can impact both human and environmental health. Visualise Copernicus Sentinel-3 data with EUMETview (view.eumetsat.int) or Sentinel-2 and -3 data with WEkEO (https://www.wekeo.eu/) 🛰️

🌊The European Digital Twin Ocean (EU DTO) is making strides! The Digital Ocean Forum 2024 on 13 June marked an important milestone for the #EUDTO, as the European Commission, Mercator Ocean International (MOi) and the VLIZ - Flanders Marine Institute unveiled the pre-operational platform. The event featured a live demonstration in the presence of European Commission representatives, scientific officers and civil society organisations, underscoring the collaborative nature of the project. A powerful tool for science-driven decision-making, the EDITO - European Digital Twin Ocean will represent a significant leap forward in our ability to monitor, predict, and understand Ocean dynamics, helping to drive sustainable Ocean management. As a flagship initiative of the EC's Mission Restore Our Ocean and Waters, the EU DTO supports the EU Green Deal and the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development. The platform is set to gradually scale up throughout 2025. The #DOF2024 was organised under the auspices of the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the European Union 2024 and co-hosted by the European Commission’s Directorates-General for Research and Innovation (DG RTD), Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (DG MARE), and Defence, Industry and Space (DG DEFIS), in collaboration with Mercator Ocean International (MOi) and the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ).
