- | ====== S9.2.2 - Ecosystem health in the North Sea ====== | ||
- | ===== Description ===== | ||
- | This application demonstrate model based assessments of algal bloom activity in the NW European shelf seas (including harmful algal blooms) and prepare demonstration products for web based dissemination. Application of dissolved oxygen " | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | The existing services is a consolidated toward EuroDESS application and include | ||
- | * the POLCOMs-ERSEM MRCS model nowcasts running at the UK Met Office | ||
- | |||
- | * The CEFAS SMART monitoring buoys in the North Sea | ||
- | |||
- | * The NIVA Norwegian ferry-box monitoring. | ||
- | |||
- | * The MRCS model five-day forecasts . | ||
- | |||
- | ===== Users ===== | ||
- | |||
- | ===== User requests ===== | ||
- | |||
- | Interviews conducted with users and experts to find out what requirements are for this applications. The following quantities were found to be most important | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Variables: ==== | ||
- | |||
- | * Temperature, | ||
- | * Waves, wind and currents also useful. | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ==== Products: ==== | ||
- | |||
- | * Surface and bottom fields and anomalies, surface-bottom difference. | ||
- | |||
- | * Time series. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Time Horizon: ==== | ||
- | |||
- | * Daily for ecosystem health, past data plus five day forecast where available. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Regions: ==== | ||
- | |||
- | - Whole MRCS domain fine for Ecosystem Health – DESS provides full flexibility for region and zoom | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Resolution: ==== | ||
- | |||
- | * 6km model resolution adequate for many applications but maybe insufficient for very-near-coast applications. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== The present system ===== | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | The system will contain the following information | ||
- | * Ecosystem information from Met Office Medium Resolution Continental Shelf - European Regional Seas Ecosystem Model (MRCS-ERSEM), | ||
- | * Forecast and hindcast information from model and observations, | ||
