This project aims to study the potential benefit of incorporating satellite-derived Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) measurements into oceanographic and environmental applications within the Baltic Sea. For such purpose, a team led by ARGANS Ltd (UK) with participation of Barcelona Expert Centre (BEC / ICM-CSIC, Spain) and the Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI, Finland) will develop an …
The overall goal of the ESA funded project Baltic+ SeaLaBio (Sea-Land Biogeochemical linkages) running from Dec 2018 to May 2020 is to develop methods for assessing carbon dynamics and eutrophication in the Baltic Sea through integrated use of EO, models, and ground-based data The poor state of the Baltic Sea again became apparent during summer …
Data from Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission can help to gain a better understanding of the Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) dynamics in the Mediterranean Sea, a hotspot for climate change. Unfortunately, this critical area is strongly affected by Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and systematic biases due to the coast contamination (also called Land-Sea …
Stakeholders from the Baltic region met at a workshop held in Helsinki in March 2017. The following elements were agreed as priority interests to be addressed by ESA funded projects: Platform services and processing resources: Reliable, robust regional data access and processing capabilities for all EO data, including rapid access to data Platform as a …
