EUROPEAN REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT FUND INTERREG III

C




ObjectivesSurvey on marine monitoring applications, technologies,

research and future perspectives in the 3 regions

• Establish a report on application potential and future needs of marine monitoring systems in the 3 regions

• Provide related information to stakeholders

• Provide industry perspectives, future trends and chances

• Foster cooperation among the 3 institutions

• Establish links to the OMS Project (Schleswig-Holstein) and other regional, national and international marine monitoring projects (e.g. Marel, Fishery Monitoring, FerryBox Network)

Participants




Highlights from Germany

Marine Monitoring• Operational network of fixed monitoring stations and regular monitoring

cruises in the German EEZ by the German Maritime and Hydrographic Agency (BSH)

• Operational forecast model system for the North Sea, Baltic Sea and the German Bight operated by BSH (daily forecasts, emergency response)

• Several coastal / nearshore fixed monitoring stations and a network of tide gauges plus regular monitoring cruises on regular sampling grids in the German territorial waters operated conducted by the German Coastal States

• Networks of tide gauges in the Federal marine waterways (shipping channels) plus task specific monitoring (e.g. for risk and impact assessment) operated / conducted by subsidiaries of the Federal Ministry of Transport

• Some monitoring stations operated by large research centres (primarily research driven)

Future Trends• Tendency to operationally measure more “green” parameters (eg. nutrients,

chlorophyll-a, TOC)

• Development / application of more stable and less maintenance / calibration intensive sensors

• Reduction of costly monitoring cruises

• Eventually increased use of systems installed on voluntary ships of-opportunity (e.g. Ferryboxes – presently qualified with pilot projects)

• Improvement of operational forecast models and integration of water quality and marine ecosystem models into operational systems

• Operational GIS and information systems for marine spatial planning

• Enhanced European cooperation and thereby eventually achievement of improved coverage and optimised station positioning through collaborative operational oceanography projects (mainly EU funded)






OMS Pilot System & Project• Industry driven end-to-end Ocean Monitoring System combining

Classical subsystems (fixed monitoring stations – buoys, piles, moorings)

HF-Radar surveillance (currents, waves, over-radar-horizon targets)

Coastal X-Band and wave radar (radar surveillance, waves)

Operational forecast models

Information systems and services (public and end-user tailored)

Warning system including robust emergency broadcast services

Modular, open and multi-purpose approach Flexible, portable, adaptable

Integration of proven, commercially available subsystems Cost reduction

Combines elements of marine monitoring, coastal surveillance, maritime security and early warning systems Multi-purpose, enlarged user community, improved use of infrastructures, capacities and resources
