Google PR: project is to improve the understanding of the active processes in coastal and shelf seas and their essential interactions, thereby enabling the development of coupled models for forecasting and management into the next century.
Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: The World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) is a component of the World Climate Research Program (WCRP) and is the most ambitious oceanographic experiment undertaken to-date.
Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: PROMISE's objectives are to develop a framework in which to optimise the application of existing pre-operational dynamical models of the North Sea and to quantify sediment exchange rates and scales between coast and the near-shore. PROMISE is an EU-RTD Project.

Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: The aim of this study is relate changes in the properties of the water column and associated sucessions in the phytoplankton with changes in optical properties and ocean colour. Models based on these relationships will be developed and validated. These models will facilitate the interpretation of measurements of ocean colour (remote or in-situ) in terms of the temporal and spatial structures of phytoplankton communities.

The patterns of diversity in this species - an important component of Atlantic communities - will be investigated at specific locations in the north-eastern Atlantic, the Kattegat and the Meditarranean.

Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: Examines the susceptibility of the Baltic Sea to external forcing and to improve the quantification of past and present fluxes in the area.
Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: GRACE will be able to map the Earth's gravity fields by making accurate measurements of the distance between two satellites, using GPS and a microwave ranging system. It will provide scientists with a way to map the Earth's gravity fields. The results from this mission will yield information about the distribution and flow of mass within the Earth and its oceans and surroundings.

Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: The OCCAM project has developed two high resolution (1/4 and 1/8 degree) models of the World Ocean - including the Arctic Ocean and marginal seas such as the Mediterranean. The project is being carried out by researchers at the Southampton Oceanography Centre in collaboration with colleagues from the Universities of East Anglia and Edinburgh.
Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: The study aims to develop and test (in both laboratory and the field) an autonomous atmospheric measuring system which will measure surface stress, sensible and latent heat flux and also carbon dioxide flux.
Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: studies the role of physical processes controlling water-property distributions, suspended sediments controlling the availability of light, nutrients and phytoplankton growth. The project comprises development of a 3-D nearshore model, measurements in contrasted ROFIs and comparisons between them.
