Reconstructions of Mediterranean ocean temperature fields back to 1950 show a proxy relationship between heat content changes in the North Atlantic and Western Deep Water (WMDW) formed Gulf Lions winter, because consistent air‐sea fluxes over these areas, strongly correlated Oscillation (NAO).
In this work, an extended overview of the marine renewable energy in Mediterranean Sea is provided as regards current status, potential problems, challenges, and perspectives development. An integrated holistic approach necessary for economic viability sustainability projects; comprises three different frameworks, not always aligned, i.e., geotechnical/engineering, socio-economic, environmental/ecological frameworks. context, geomorphological, climatological, particularities basin are...
Marine data are needed for many purposes: acquiring a better scientific understanding of the marine environment, but also, increasingly, as knowledge decision making well developing products and services supporting economic growth. Data must be sufficient quality to meet specific users' needs. It also accessible in timely manner. And yet, despite being critical, this access known-quality proves challenging. Europe's have traditionally been collected by myriad entities with result that much...
The Joint Committee for Oceanography and Marine Meteorology (JCOMM), a joint technical commission of IOC UNESCO WMO, has devised coordination mechanism the fit-for-purpose delivery an end-to-end system, from ocean observations to met-ocean operational services. This paper offers complete overview activities carried out by JCOMM status achievements up 2017. stakeholders are WMO Members Member States, their research Institutions, which mandated devise international strategy advance toward...
Abstract. We present a new product composed of set thermohaline climatic indices from 1950 to 2015 for the Mediterranean Sea such as decadal temperature and salinity anomalies, their mean values over selected depths, ocean heat salt content anomalies at depth layers well long time series. It is produced high-resolution climatology on 1∕8∘ regular grid based historical high-quality in situ observations. Ocean differences between 1980–2015 1950–1979 are compared evaluation climate shift Sea....
The Mediterranean Sea is warming at a rate faster than the global ocean average, as recent research highlights. This region particularly vulnerable to climate change due its distinctive topography and thermohaline circulation patterns. Observational evidence model-based analyses have revealed considerable shifts in properties of water masses.A crucial metric for tracking this phenomenon Ocean Heat Content (OHC). study addresses challenge devising cloud-based workflow estimate OHC, enabling...
SeaDataNet is a major pan-European infrastructure for managing and providing access to marine data sets products, acquired by European organisations from research cruises other observational activities in coastal waters, regional seas the global ocean. Founding partners are National Oceanographic Data Centres (NODCs), institutes, ICES. The network, initiated nineties, expanded over time its network of centres infrastructure, during series dedicated EU RTD projects, engaging as core...
European and global institutions are working hard to collect share high quality environmental data and  information. This is because it clear that the ocean knows no borders, sharing necessary make policies based on knowledge informed by extensive data.Fifteen years ago, DG MARE launched EMODnet infrastructure, which today provides a consolidated framework for open access marine data, products services. The behind work together scientific thematic area offer FAIR (Findable,...
The European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet) is the gateway to multidisciplinary marine in-situ data products has been funded by Commission for 15 years. In particular, EMODnet Chemistry collects makes freely available nearly 1,300,000 million metadata entries related datasets on seawater quality in various matrices.The aim of this contribution EGU illustrate long-term initiative its wealth use cases. These show how fairness can enable faster more accurate modelling solutions...

The integration of the radioactivity spectrometer KATERINA II in a fixed station (buoy) POSEIDON network at North Aegean Sea within framework MARRE Project is presented. acquisition period lasted from 20 November 2019 till 22 February 2020. An intense increment activity concentration radon progenies (up to an order magnitude) was recorded during rainfall. More specifically, 214Bi varied 0.09 0.53 Bq L−1 without rainfall and 214Pb 0.14 0.81 L−1. ranged 0.4 5.4 0.3 5.3 minimum detectable...
Abstract. The goal of the present work is to provide scientific community with a high-resolution atlas temperature and salinity for Mediterranean Sea based on most recent datasets available contribute studies long-term variability in region. Data from pan-European marine data infrastructure SeaDataNet were used, complete and, our best knowledge, quality dataset as today. situ measurements acquired between 1900 2015. consists horizontal gridded fields produced by Data-Interpolating...

Harmonization of monitoring protocols and analytical methods is a crucial issue for transnational marine environmental status assessment, yet not the only one. Coherent data management quality control become very relevant when assessed at regional or subregional scale (e.g. Mediterranean Adriatic Sea), thus requiring from different sources. Heavy metals are among main targets activities. Significant efforts have been dedicated to share best practices assessment ecosystem strengthen network...
