NOOS Project: 3D Modelling

• BSH-DMI-SMHI NOOS-BOOS – BSHcmod/HIROMB shared model development

• Met Office / met.no exchange– bilateral exchange Atlantic 1/9° (1/3°) FOAM with met.no

→ NEMO Atlantic in Fall 2008

• Met Office POLCOMS ~12km Atlantic Margin model – Ongoing development to share North Sea data from Atlantic

Margin model – pilot with MUMM, with DMI for T&S initial and lateral BCs

– Core forecast system in MyOcean, serving all in NOOS

EMECO into NOOS

• The European Marine Ecosystem Observatory (EMECO) is a consortium with partners aiming to integrate marine environmental monitoring, modelling, and research to provide a holistic approach to improve understanding of the status and predict future changes in ecosystem structure and function.

NOOS opportunities

• We can do a lot more with what we have by just coordinating among providers

• We should better cover the shelf seas (Irish, Celtic Sea, Western Channel)

• Gathering different views on implementing the Marine Strategy Directive

• Offering services to EU-MSD initial assessment in 2012

• Start with Eutrophication (EMECO-framework)
