GLOSS aims at the establishment of high quality global and regional sea level networks for application to climate, oceanographic and coastal sea level research. The programme became known as GLOSS as it provides data for deriving the 'Global Level of the Sea Surface'.

Marine Productivity was the UK contribution to the international Global Ocean Ecosystem Dynamics (GLOBEC) project.
Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: An international programme to assess more accurately, and understand better the processes controlling, regional to global and seasonal to interannual fluxes of carbon between the atmosphere, surface ocean and ocean interior, and their sensitivity to climate changes.
Details Hits: 0 Votes: 0 Ratings: Reviews: Google PR: STABLE is a large instrument to measure sea bed currents. Rapidly changing 3-D turbulent currents are measured by three pairs of electromagnetic current meters, while slower, tidal currents are measured by four, red Savonius rotors and a current-direction vane. Water depth and wave-induced pressure changes are measured by two pressure transducers, while suspended sediment concentration profiles are measured by three acoustic backscatter sensors. Housekeeping functions are measured by a compass, pitch and roll sensors and two temperature sensors.

In the UK this is reinforced by MAFF High Level Targets for Flood and Coastal Defence, and will support the delivery of Biological Action Plans aimed at securing the management of Natura 2000 sites.
