14. Marine Core Service MY OCEAN Marine Core Service Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI) Sea ice service Assessment of products relevant to Baltic, especially in sea ice to improve ice information and ice forecasts. In the Baltic Sea the marine transport is about 0.9 B tonnes, an increase of 30% in 10 years and 40% during ice season. FMI is a link between MyOcean and end users FMI has a very good connection to main end users in the Baltic Sea maritime transport, eg. Nat. Maritime Administrations, BIM, EIS, IICWG, WMO/IOC-ETSI Benefits: maritime transport during ice season with better sea ice information and forecasts
