Marine Core Service MY OCEAN Project overview

Marine Core Service Main keys n Objective: pan-European service for ocean monitoring and forecasting n Targetted users: specialized service providers n Challenge: a sustained European Marine Core Service n Framework: European Union « GMES » program n Budget: 55 M€ n Funding: European Commission 33 M€ / Partners 22 M€ n Duration: 3 years n Consortium: 61 partners, 29 countries n Organization: a pan-European system composed of 12 units, 5 for observations, 7 for assimilation/modelling, and shared facilities n … the GODAE centres in Europe, working together to provide a single pan-European service, reducing unnecessary redundancies, increasing the service value

Marine Core Service The Consortium 61 partners throughout Europe

Marine Core Service MyOcean is … n MyOcean is a PROJECT –An FP7 project, the GMES « Marine Fast Track » project –3 years ; has started on 1st April 2009, will end 31 March 2012 –Cost 18 M€/year, with 11 M€/year EC funding 2009 – 2010 – 2011 – (2012) n MyOcean is a SERVICE –The main component of the « GMES » Marine Core Service –Global & regional Ocean monitoring and forecasting Marine Core Service n MyOcean is a TEAM of European partners –61 partners, out of 28 countries ; an effort of ~150 person/year –20 core partners committed for operations; european best monitoring and forecasting systems Pan-European team

Marine Core Service Users of the MyOcean core service are specialized service providers of the downstream sector. Targets: Intermediate users

Marine Core Service Market Segmentation  The users, their requirements, their assessment Area 1 « MARINE SAFETY » (marine operations, oil spill combat, ship routing, defense, search & rescue, …) Area 2 « MARINE RESSOURCES » (fish stock management, ICES, FAO, …) Area 3 « MARINE AND COASTAL ENVIRONMENT » (water quality, pollution, coastal activities, …) Area 4 « CLIMATE & SEASONAL FORECASTING » (climate monitoring, ice, seasonal forecasting,..)

Marine Core Service A European Marine “core” service seeking for the “european added value” From GMES MCS Implementation Group report by P.Ryder & al, oct 2005  In 3 years, create the maximum “core” value for the users by providing on a reliable basis “ the common denominator data for all users in the marine sector, in other words the information for existing & new downstream services.”

Marine Core Service The MyOcean offer  MyOcean will  “deliver regular and systematic reference information (processed data, elaborated products) on the state of the oceans and regional seas:  at the resolution required by intermediate users & downstream service providers, of known quality and accuracy,  for the global and European regional seas.”  Physical state of the ocean, and primary ecosystem  For global ocean, and main European basins and seas  Large and basin scale ; mesoscale physics  Hindcast, Nowcast, Forecast  Data, Assimilation and Models
