Black Sea ECOOP system G.K. KOROTAEV MARINE HYDROPHYSICAL INSTITUTE SEVASTOPOL, UKRAINE

T5.6 - Regional Black Sea integrated system Korotaev Gennady (MHI) - IMS-METU, IO-BAS, MHI, NIMRD Objectives: to build the baseline integrated Black Sea GOOS system made up of a regional and 3 coastal systems: the North Western shelf system, the Bosphorus and Western shelf system and the South coast of Crimea and North East Black sea system, enhance this integrated system by upgrading individual parts of it and provide connections to EuroMISS and demonstration in a target perational period TOP. S Regional system capacity and TOP experiment Korotaev Gennady (MHI) - IMS-METU, MHI Objectives: Integrate the Black Sea regional system to the ECOOP environment S Downscaling and upgrades of targeted demonstration coastal areas (North Western shelf system) Nicolaev Simion (NIMRD) - MHI, NIMRD Objectives: Integrate the Black Sea N-W shelf sub-system to the ECOOP environment S Downscaling and upgrades of targeted demonstration coastal areas (Bosphorus and Western shelf system) Temel Oguz (IMS-METU) - IMS-METU, IO-BAS Objectives: Integrate the Black Sea Bosphorus and Western shelf sub-system to the ECOOP environment S Downscaling and upgrades of targeted demonstration coastal areas (South coast of Crimea, North East Black Sea) Korotaev Gennady (MHI) - MHI Objectives: Integrate the South coast of Crimea, N-E Black sea sub-system to the ECOOP Environment

COASTAL FORECASTING

ECOOP Meeting on the Black Sea Coastal Forecasting System Istanbul July Goals of the meeting: to describe the V0 of ECOOP coastal forecasting system; to arrange what will be the V1 system; to arrange how to develop the V1 system what can be the validation data base for on-line and off-line validation of the Black Sea coastal system products

V0 coastal forecasting (near-operational) Romanian coastal region Kalamita Bay region Novorossyisk region Georgian region Burgas Bay NWS POM-model in σ-coordinates Like POM-model in σ-coordinates Bulgarian domestic model in z-coordinates Georgian domestic model in z-coordinates
