- | **Objectives**: | ||
- | the European coastal seas and providing them to coastal and shelf seas monitoring and forecasting | ||
- | services. | ||
- | |||
- | **Description**: | ||
- | forecasting system. The activities are: identifying the relevant data sources and their providers | ||
- | (catalogue), | ||
- | and putting into effect actual data streams for the major sources. This work is necessary for ECOOP | ||
- | because fresh water fluxes to the coastal seas, and the accompanying nutrient and pollutant loads, | ||
- | are important for accurate monitoring and forecasting the coastal zone ecosystem, pollutant fate as | ||
- | well as for coastal flood management. Observing systems are fragmented, even within nations, and | ||
- | the data are difficult to access, especially in near-real-time (NRT). Efforts towards integrating | ||
- | observations have been mainly focused on hydrology and river flooding, not coastal monitoring. | ||
- | Consequently, | ||
- | runoff, such as climatologies. Integration is necessary since fresh water effects on the coastal seas | ||
- | are intrinsically trans-boundary. | ||
- | |||
- | Given the fragmented state of the European river observing system, this task will work through the | ||
- | five EuroGOOS regional associations: | ||
- | GOOS. It will be most efficient to exploit the national contact networks represented by the | ||
- | association memberships. The task team therefore includes a key member from each regional | ||
- | association plus a task leader. Each regional partner will liaise closely with their association | ||
- | membership in carrying out the Work. This will ensure that the resulting data provision system is | ||
- | properly tuned to the needs of the regional users and that it will optimally benefit those users. This | ||
- | approach builds on early initiatives within some of the associations, | ||
- | objectives has been started in NOOS as a "best endeavours" | ||
- | archived and on-line data, volume flux, nutrient and pollutant loads, but the focus will be on | ||
- | implementing a NRT data access to fresh water volume flux, since this is the basic time-critical data | ||
- | stream. | ||
