Aim Operational oceanography can add value to environment assessment: • Higher quality • More frequent assessment, especially to abnormal situation • Identify observation gaps
OUTLI NES • BOOS and CMEMS In-situ TAC => EMODnet What is In-Situ Observation and why? • • BOOS at a glance • CMEMS In-situ TAC at a glance o In-Situ Products in CMEMS catalogue o NRT service o Ocean State Report • Possibilities and advantages with collaborations between HELCOM, BOOS and CMEMS.
BOOS and I n-situ TAC CMEMS Baltic Operational Oceanographic System -BOOS BOOS is part of the EuroGOOS network of observing platforms • One of the Regional Operartional Oceanographic Systems (ROOS’s) • BOOS has the vision to provide integrated marine services to the marine users and policy makers.
BOOS and CMEMS I n-situ TAC Copernicus Marine Environm ental Service ( CMEMS) + In situ observations (INS TAC) + Monitoring and Forecasting Centers (MFC TAC’s) + Satellite observations (OC TAC,OSI TAC, SL TAC)
BOOS and CMEMS I n-situ TAC CMEMS In-situ TAC Thematic Assembly Center for marine In-situ observations within • the Copernicus Marine Service • CMEMS In-Situ TAC integrates thousands of observing systems to provide a global picture of the 3D ocean state and ocean variability at different spatial and temporal scales

W hat is I n-situ observation and w hy? In-situ observations are on-site local measurements of sea water properties.
W hat is I n-situ observation and w hy? • In-situ observations are obtained using ad-hoc on-site sensors on board of a wide range of platforms. • Sensors attached on eg. buoys and ships are used to capture ocean variability at different scales . In-situ observations are made • locally.

In-situ observations are made • locally. • CMEMS In-Situ TAC gathers them via the ROOS’s into ONE data base.
W hat is I n-situ observation and w hy? • Many organizations acquire in-situ data in different locations at sea. • BOOS and CMEMS’s job is not to acquire in-situ data and not to operate or maintain any observing systems. It is rather to identify (BOOS), gather and integrate them into ONE DATA BASE. • « Gathering data » from outsider organisations requires strong mutual agreements. • « Integrating data » into ONE data base requires strong format standard definition and quality control procedures.
