The African Marine Atlas developed by the Ocean Data and Information Network for Africa (ODINAFRICA) was officially launched on 23 February 2007 at the IOC Project Office for International Oceanographic Data and Information Exchange (IODE) in Ostend, Belgium.
The African Marine Atlas, which can be accessed at http://www.africanmarineatlas.net, provides substantial maps, images, data and information to coastal resource managers, planners and decision-makers from various administrative institutions and specialized agencies in Africa. The Atlas will be of immense benefit to national institutions and a variety of users such as environmentalists, local administrators, park managers, scientific community, fishing cooperatives, tourists, hotel keepers, teachers, NGOs, the general public, and any other interested persons. It has over 800 downloadable data products africanmarineatlas_map.jpgderived from the fields of marine geo-sphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, biosphere, geopolitical and the human socio-economic dimensions.
The Atlas indicates areas of intense use along the coastline requiring careful management and provides potential foresight on likely consequences of specific decisions. Further, the Atlas indicates gaps in knowledge and information base, where additional efforts may be directed. The Atlas will also act in other ways as a guide to recreational opportunities and tourist attractions.
In developing the Atlas, the main objective was to collate available geospatial datasets and information on the marine environment and to summarize it into an African Marine Atlas suite.
The website is one of a set of Marine Atlas products that will include web data services, web mapping and an Atlas publication when completed.
The Atlas was realized through intensive work between May 2006 and February 2007 by a team of 16 marine scientists and GIS experts from NODC’s in Benin, Ghana, Kenya, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Senegal, Seychelles, South Africa, and Tanzania. International ocean data experts provided key inputs in data analysis. It is based on an extensive survey of coastal and marine data needs undertaken in early 2006 in all the countries participating in ODINAFRICA.
Primary partners in this project were the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), and the African Coelecanth Ecosystem Programme (ACEP). UNEP will develop a clearinghouse and information system on coastal and marine resources of Eastern Africa from the regional atlas. The Atlas has brought great benefits to participating national institutions and Africa as a whole, by encouraging scientists to work together, learn new techniques, and build teams that will continue to regularly update the Atlas with national and local scale data sets.
In 2018 with assistance from the International Coastal Atlas Network (ICAN), the AMA project transitioned to the GeoNode Platform and became known as the African Coastal and Marine Atlas (ACMA).

The ShoreZone mapping system has been in use since the early 1980s and has been applied to more than 120,000 km of shoreline in Alaska, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia. As of 2018, approximately 94% of the state has ShoreZone imagery and of the area imaged approximately 98% is mapped. This project has been funded by NOAA and a number of other agencies and organizations throughout the years.
This standardized system catalogs both geomorphic and biological resources at mapping scales of better than 1:10,000. The high resolution, the attribute-rich dataset is a useful tool for extrapolation of site data over broad spatial ranges for creating a variety of habitat models and oil spill response tools.
Low tide, oblique aerial imagery sets this system apart from other mapping efforts. You can "fly the coastline" (aerial video), view and download still photos, and access physical and biological data using our interactive website. Power users can download the entire ShoreZone geodatabase.

American Tropical Seas Observatory - Institute for Marine and Coastal Research of Colombia
The Tropical Seas of the Americas Observatory Portal (TRITON) is an initiative of the Geosciences Program of the Institute for Marine and Coastal Research - INVEMAR (Colombia). TRITON aims to be a tool to support research, productive activities and the follow-up of the evolution (monitoring) of oceanic conditions in the Caribbean region. To this end, TRITON displays in an almost permanent way and in close to real-time (between 6 hours and 2 days late) highly relevant oceanographic information in the highest spatial resolution possible for the entire basin.
The global oceanographic information displayed in TRITON comes from or has been processed from different satellite databases and free access to numerical model outputs. Its original sources can be consulted in the links provided together with the information corresponding to each variable. The data processing is carried out through PYTHON modules and later it is stored in NetCDF format. The information is displayed through a THREDDS 4.6.9 server (Thematic Real-time Environmental Distributed Data Services) in WMS format. WMS services are consumed and interpreted through Arcgis 3.30 Javascript framework.

Planktonic ostracods are a neglected component of mesoplanktonic communities, despite being almost ubiquitous throughout the World's oceans. Currently the number of planktonic ostracods described from oceanic waters is 203. In addition there are 34 species of the family Thaumatocyprididae, which are predominantly either benthic or cavernicolous. We present a listing of the currently recognized species . In inshore waters, particularly in the vicinity of coral reefs, there is a great diversity of myodocopid ostracods that can be sampled in the water column especially at night. Most of these myodocopid species are not holoplanktonic, entering the water column at certain stages of their life histories. This site only covers the holoplanktonic species and does not deal with any of the neritic species.
In oceanic waters the vast majority of planktonic ostracods are halocyprids. They are often very abundant, and rank second to copepods in numerical abundance particularly in subthermocline waters. They may occur almost everywhere from the surface to abyssal depths. However, they are seldom encountered in the upper 100-200m of the water column at high latitudes (>50�), for example they are infrequently sampled by the Continuous Plankton Recorder, which is towed at 8-10m (Williams, 1975). However, their relatively small size (0.5->3mm) means their contribution to the overall planktonic biomass is usually small (<5%). Most species appear to be detritivores, seemingly adapted to exploit marine snow and other sinking particulates. The group frequently goes unreported, because there is a perception that they are difficult to identify, and so they are overlooked. This difficulty is more the result of a lack of good manuals of identification, rather than any greater intrinsic difficulty of identifying them compared with most other components of the plankton. As well as the halocyprids, there are eight very striking species of carnivorous deepwater myodocopids (i.e. Gigantocypris and Macrocypridina ) that are planktonic, but only two have been recorded from the Southern Ocean.
In preparing this atlas, we have compiled a complete inventory of published records for all known species that can be geo-positioned with reasonable accuracy. These data have been supplemented with a considerable body of unpublished data derived from material collected by Discovery Investigations mostly in the 1930's (identified by MVA). Our aim is ultimately to generate a global atlas for all the species. Here as an initial step we have focused on the species that have been recorded from the Southern Ocean . The criterion whereby we have chosen to include species is a single reliable record from south of 52�S. This reduces the number of species that are predominantly associated with low latitudes, but are advected into higher latitudes via mesoscale eddies. Other authors have used lower latitudes to delimit Southern Ocean species, for example Razouls et al. (2000) in their study of the biogeography of Antarctic copepods used 45�S as the northern limit of the Southern Ocean. Our compilation for these 47 species

Animations - Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array (ODIS id: 590)
The Global Tropical Moored Buoy Array Program is a multi-national effort to provide data in real-time for climate research and forecasting. Major components include the TAO/TRITON array in the Pacific, PIRATA in the Atlantic, and RAMA in the Indian Ocean. The major phenomenological foci of this array are: (i) El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in the Pacific; (ii) The interhemispheric dipole mode, equatorial warm events, and hurricane activity in the Atlantic; (iii) The monsoons, the Indian Ocean Dipole, and intraseasonal variability in the Indian Ocean.
The referred web page provides 3-D animations for temperature, currents, SST, wind.

The Antarctic Seismic Data Library System for Cooperative Research (SDLS) was created in April 1991 under the auspices of SCAR to provide open access to all multichannel seismic reflection (MCS) data collected south of 60° S.
The SDLS functions under the mandates of the Antarctic Treaty (ATCM XVI-12), and as such, all institutions that collect MCS data in Antarctica must submit their data to the SDLS for use in cooperative research projects. MCS data are submitted to the SDLS within 4 years of collection and remain in the library under SDLS guidelines until 8 years after collection. Thereafter, the data are available for unrestricted use, although recognition of the data collector is requested.
The MCS data in the SDLS may be accessed at library branches worldwide. MCS data are supplied to SDLS branches in a 'final stack' version in digital SEG-Y format on CD/DVD-ROM where they can be viewed and studied, but may not be copied without permission of the data collector. The SDLS is a research facility and not a data bank; MCS data in the SDLS are for use in cooperative research projects, and may not be used for commercial purposes.
This latest version of the SDLS website has been completely rebuilt, adding new functionalities, interactive data viewers and a new metadata structure based on OGC standards O&M (ISO/DIN 19156) and SensorML. SVG interactive graphics are still used but there is no longer any need to use the Adobe plugin. This also removes the restriction of the type of browser to use; any regular browser is now acceptable. The portal is now based on the SNAP framework, which is a web-based infrastructure developed by OGS where geophysical data can be located, interactively previewed and accessed.

Data contained in the SDLS are subdivided into six principal geographic regions around Antarctica (Ross Sea (RS), Wilkes Land (WL), Enderby Land (EL), Weddell Sea (WS), Antarctic Peninsula (AP), Marie Byrd Land (MBL)).

Welcome to the Atlas of Community-Based Monitoring in a Changing Arctic. Arctic communities are actively involved with observing social and environmental change; this atlas was designed to showcase the many community-based monitoring (CBM) and Indigenous Knowledge (IK) initiatives across the circumpolar region.
While interest in community-based monitoring (CBM) is growing, there has been little coordination of initiatives at a circumpolar level. The Atlas of Community-Based Monitoring in a Changing Arctic was initiated as a task of the Sustaining Arctic Observing Networks (SAON) to help address this gap. It is intended to serve as an inventory of initiatives that will assist with network building and identification of best practices and challenges for the field. A secondary phase of the project will draw on CBM initiatives inventoried by the atlas, as well as a literature review, and interviews and input from practitioners, to draft a review of the state of CBM in the Arctic.
CBM and TK initiatives are identified for the atlas through outreach by project collaborators and content partners. Many initiatives have provided information directly to the atlas, while in some cases, information was drawn from published articles or information that project Principal Investigators (PIs) have made publicly available on the Internet. In these cases, project PIs have been contacted to request permission to add them to the atlas.
Anticipated benefits of this project include: 1) Communities involved in monitoring will have an easier time connecting with one another and will have a better sense of how their approaches to monitoring fit within a wider context; 2) Researchers, funders, and other members of the Arctic monitoring community will better understand the role and potential of community-based monitoring.
The atlas is being developed under the direction of the Inuit Circumpolar Council in partnership with Brown University, the Exchange for Local Observations and Knowledge of the Arctic (ELOKA), and Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami's Inuit Qaujisarvingat: Inuit Knowledge Centre. The atlas draws on the Nunaliit Atlas Framework hosted by Carleton University's Geomatics and Cartographic Research Centre.
Additionally, a number of institutions are collaborating as "content partners" by assisting with identification of CBM and Indigenous Knowledge (IK) initiatives. Content partners include the European Commission through their "Study on Arctic Lay and Traditional Knowledge: Community-based Monitoring Programmes in the EU Arctic," implemented by the Nordic Agency for Development and Ecology (NORDECO). Additionally, the Alaska Ocean Observing System (AOOS) and Alaska Sea Grant are assisting with identification of CBM initiatives in Alaska.
While the Atlas was initially developed with a focus on environmental monitoring programs, environmental change and social change in the Arctic are significantly connected. Additionally, many communities take a holistic perspective on change and emphasize connections and linkages between the environment and society. The atlas was designed to be flexible to allow mapping of social and environmental monitoring initiatives. As a pilot social monitoring focus, we are currently working on developing a Mental Health and Wellness map within the atlas that draws on the Circumpolar Inuit Health Priorities: Best Health Practices and Research, a report completed in 2012 by ICC-Canada. We envision expanding this map to include other health and wellness initiatives in the future.

Atlas of Oceanographic Data for Colombia 1922-2013. Temperature, salinity, density, geostrophic velocity (ODIS id: 967)
Atlas of Oceanographic Data for Colombia 1922-2013. Temperature, salinity, density, geostrophic velocity
This document consists of a description of the treatment, processing and analysis of oceanographic data collected by the Colombian Navy and General Maritime Directorate in the Caribbean and Pacific waters of Colombia and neighboring basins, supplemented with data from the NODC database. The analysis is presented in maps of horizontal distributions for climatological fields of temperature, salinity, density and dynamic topographies at standard depths and calculations of geostrophic velocity in vertical profiles, based on data averaged in a grid of ½ degree of latitude and longitude. The purpose of the maps is to illustrate the characteristics of the distributions of these parameters in both basins. After comprehensive quality control of all available data, the fields used to generate climatological maps were calculated by analyzing statistics at 17 standard depths and plotted using DataInterpolating Variational Analysis (DIVA) for the printed material and using Optimal Interpolation for the digital application. Maps of mean distributions are presented for the overall data set and for decadal, annual, seasonal and monthly averages with corresponding standard deviations and standard error at standard depths down to 2500 m.

Atmospheric Dynamics - Indonesian Agency for Meteorological, Climatological and Geophysics (ODIS id: 654)
The Balearic RIssaga Forecasting System (BRIFS) aims to quantitatively predict the occurrence of extreme sea level oscillations associated with meteotsunamis in the Menorcan harbour of Ciutadella. Combining both atmospheric and oceanic modelling, the system is run once a day in the morning and provides a 48-hour prediction of air pressure disturbances and associated sea level response over the Balearic shelf and in Ciutadella harbour.
The Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) is implemented in a two-nested-grid configuration over the Western Mediterranean basin, with a grid refinement (4km) over an area around the Balearic Islands extending to the South until the Algerian coast. Ninety-seven vertical levels are employed with a finer resolution in the lower levels to adequately resolve the characteristic inversion layer associated with Rissaga phenomena. Initial state and boundary conditions are prescribed from the synoptic atmospheric conditions described by the FNL/GFS analysis/forecast from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP).
WRF air pressure outputs with a 2-minute temporal resolution are used to force a two-nested grid configuration of the Regional Ocean Modelling System (ROMS). ROMS is a 3D free-surface, split-explicit primitive equation model with Boussinesq and hydrostatic approximations. Due to the 2-dimensional nature of the processes involved in the build-up of the rissaga, BRIFS does not consider any density stratification. The larger domain covers the Balearic Islands with a horizontal resolution of 1km. It provides the boundary conditions to the inner domain, which covers the area around Ciutadella with a spatial resolution of 10m.
Further details of the system configuration can be found in Renault et al. (2011).

Baltic Sea Region Integrated Maritime Cultural Heritage Management Data Portal
The cultural heritage (CH) of the Baltic Sea is exceptionally versatile and well preserved even in a global comparison. To date, these cultural assets are barely included in Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) in the Baltic Sea. The BalticRIM project aims to integrate cultural heritage resource management into MSP in the Baltic Sea, using the opportunity of the ongoing processes driven by the MSP Directive across all Baltic Sea Region (BSR) countries. It will contribute to some lacking dimension of sustainability in the MSP processes in the BSR, thereby closing gaps to support regional efforts and to become an international model of MSP implementation. BalticRIM aims to improve the capacity of regional and maritime cultural heritage (MCH) planning agencies by developing, testing and implementing new planning solutions, innovative ways of public participation as well as sectoral MCH concepts throughout the BSR.

Biological Information System for Marine Life (ODIS id: 278)
The Biological Information System for Marine Life, in short BISMaL, is a web-based data system for biodiversity information, particularly in biogeographic data of marine organisms. BISMaL was constructed by the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC) and is operated in the Global Oceanographic Data Center (GODAC) of JAMSTEC. BISMaL mainly collects information on marine organisms around Japan. And its aim is to open information of marine organisms to the public and to contribute to a better understanding of marine biodiversity.
BISMaL is an integrated data system including photographs, movies, distribution records, references, and brief descriptions of morphology/ecology of each species or its higher taxon. Although BISMaL is a data system of JAMSTEC, it also works as the system of the Japan Ocean Biodiversity Information System Center (J-OBIS), the Japan node of the Ocean Biodiversity Information System (OBIS). Data and information collected and integrated by J-OBIS are opened to the public and provided to OBIS through BISMaL. BISMaL is contributing to global data sharing and information exchange as well as working as a data system of JAMSTEC.

Canary Islands Integrated Marine Data Repository
REDMIC (the Canary Islands Integrated Marine Data Repository, acronym in Spanish) is a permanent systematic system for the storage, safeguard and service of marine data, following the philosophy behind OpenData and OpenScience. It was specifically designed for the Canary Islands and, by extension, Macaronesia. However, it has been approached as a pilot project with the intention of reapplying it to other regions and, overtime, using it to manage a public repository as a registry for marine data.
REDMIC is different to others in that marine data of whatever kind (maritime transport, oceanography, biodiversity, fisheries, etc.) are introduced in an integrated manner in the same system of geographical information. Therefore, the effort to gather all data is only made once at the beginning, so they can be used and combined as often as necessary with the utmost speed. REDMIC is inspired by the following principles: Exploitability: facilitating the successive use of data. Generavity: storing data by maximising its potential of use.
Traceability: providing data related to how the original data were obtained and allowing the knowledge of its modifications.
Publicity: publicly funded system for the safeguard, harmonisation and service of data. Versality: allowing for its use as a general repository (all kinds of data) or as an institutional repository (limited to a sort of information or product).

Cefas WaveNet interactive map
WaveNet, Cefas’ strategic wave monitoring network for the United Kingdom, provides a single source of real-time wave data from a network of wave buoys located in areas at risk from flooding.
In operation since 2002, WaveNet collects and processes data from the Cefas-operated Datawell Directional Waverider buoys, tethered at strategic locations around the UK coastline. The WaveNet system also gathers wave data from a variety of third party platforms and programmes (industry and public sector-funded), all of which are freely available for visualisation on the WaveNet website.
Cefas sends the wave data to the Met Office (to help improve the wave and tidal surge model) and the National Flood Forecasting Service for access by the UK Coastal Flood Forecasting Service (UKCFF). Regional flood forecasters, local authorities and other stakeholders use the near-real time data from the buoys and the model predictions to provide better advice, guidance and warnings to emergency responders and communities about imminent coastal flood risk.
On a longer timescale, the data can provide coastal engineers and scientists with a better understanding of the wave climate when designing coastal flood defences and as evidence for climate change studies.
Some data are available for download from the WaveNet website; the procedure to access the data archive is available below. Please also see the Data Policy page for guidance on any restrictions on the use of the data.

CEOS International Directory Network IDN
The CEOS International Directory Network (IDN) is a Gateway to the world of Earth Science data. The CEOS IDN is an international effort developed to assist researchers in locating information on available datasets. The directory is sponsored as a service to the Earth science community.
CEOS was established in September, 1984 in response to a recommendation from a Panel of Experts on Remote Sensing from Space and set up under the aegis of the G7 Economic Summit of Industrial Nations Working Group on Growth, Technology, and Employment. This Panel recognized the multidisciplinary nature of space-based Earth observations and the value of coordinating international Earth observation efforts to benefit society.
Accordingly, the original function of CEOS was to coordinate and harmonize Earth observations to make it easier for the user community to access and use data. CEOS initially focused on interoperability, common data formats, the inter-calibration of instruments, and common validation and inter-comparison of products. However, over time, the circumstances surrounding the collection and use of space-based Earth observations have changed.
The number of Earth-observing satellites has vastly increased.
Onboard instruments are more complex and are capable of collecting new types of data in ever-growing volumes.
The user community has expanded and become more diverse as different data types become available and new applications for Earth observations are developed.
Users have become more organized, forming several international bodies that coordinate and levy Earth observation requirements.
In response to this changing environment, CEOS has evolved, becoming more complex and expanding the number and scope of its activities. In addition to its original charge, CEOS now focuses on validated requirements levied by external organizations, works closely with other satellite coordinating bodies (e.g. the Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites, CGMS), and continues its role as the primary forum for international coordination of space-based Earth observations.
Over the past three decades, CEOS has significantly contributed to the advancement of space-based Earth observation community efforts. CEOS Agencies communicate, collaborate, and exchange information on Earth observation activities, spurring useful partnerships such as the Integrated Global Observing Strategy (IGOS). CEOS played an influential role in the establishment and ongoing development of the Group on Earth Observations (GEO) and the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS). CEOS, through the major investments made by CEOS Agencies in developing the space segment of GEOSS, continues to provide space-based Earth observations in support of GEOSS implementation.
CEOS Agencies work together to launch multi-agency collaborative missions, and such cooperative efforts have highly benefited users all around the world. CEOS also provides an established means of communicating with external organizations, enabling CEOS to understand and act upon these organizations’ Earth observation needs and requirements.

Chilean Wave Atlas
Welcome to the wave information website of the School of Oceanic Civil Engineering of the University of Valparaíso .
On this site you will find statistical and forecast information for waves generated within the framework of the Fondef-Idea IT13I20006 project "A Wave Atlas for Chile".
The statistical information presented in the section "Atlas de Oleaje de Chile" was generated with the Wavewatch III v.4.18 model calibrated from satellite and buoy altimetry measurements, which was later corrected for systematic errors. This information corresponds to the best available on the project completion date and meets the main objective and motivation, which is to make the statistical behavior of the waves off the coast of Chile freely available.
The swell information from the Atlas was analyzed with a level of detail rarely seen. Thus, it was possible to characterize the operational and extreme wave climate, also including advanced technical aspects such as storm surge duration, storm trajectory, spectral shape, multimodality and uncertainty, among others.
The wave forecast is generated with the Wavewatch III model from NOAA operational forecast wind fields . Information is delivered in deep waters and in front of the mouth of the most important ports. Climate change projections were generated from global climate models whose bias was corrected using information from the Wave Atlas. The information on historical swells was compiled from bibliographic sources, press archives, and records of the Chilean Navy.
Degree memories , technical reports and publications in conferences and magazines support and complement the content presented in this document.

CoastAdapt is an information delivery and decision support framework. It is for anyone with an interest in Australia’s coast, the risks it faces from climate change and sea-level rise, and what can be done to respond to those risks.
CoastAdapt contains information and guidance to help people from all walks of life understand climate change and the responses available to manage the impacts. Although there is a focus on Australia’s coastal regions, CoastAdapt also links the user to climate change resources on the NCCARF website and beyond that are relevant to Australia more broadly.
There are three datasets in Shoreline Explorer:
Sediment compartments (Section 1 in this document). This summarises the available
information on physical (i.e., ocean currents, geomorphology etc.) coastal risks for each
coastal compartment in Australia.
Smartline (Section 2). This comes in a basic version and an advanced version. It is by far the most complex of the datasets in CoastAdapt, so you may wish to try the basic version first. It provides information on erodibility of the coastline based on geology.
Water Observations from Space (Section 3). This provides information on present-day flood risk using satellite data.
Local government boundaries are also provided. You can look at more than one dataset at once. Each dataset has a horizontal slider bar below its name – this controls the transparency and opacity of the dataset. Sliding it to the left makes the data more transparent, and to the right more opaque.

Coastal Behavior - European Geological Data Infrastructure
The public availability of satellite data and new analytical tools for processing big data, such as the Google Earth Engine, enable us to look at coastline migration in a new way. Scripts for automated detection of the land-water boundary generate numerous data points for each part of the European coastline. When averaged by year and analyzed for a decadal period, these data points form the basis for a new pan-European coastline-migration map that covers a consistent time period relevant for present-day coastal-zone management, eliminates data gaps, and portrays a single coastline indicator that is assumed to correspond to the mid-tide land-water boundary. As part of EMODnet-Geology, Gerben Hagenaars at Deltares performed an analysis for tens of thousands of transects with a spacing of 500 meters, giving a map resolution of 1:1,000,000.

Abstract
A global plankton database that contains over 400,000 observations of copepods along with other zooplankton, phytoplankton, and microbial plankton taxa. COPEPOD: The global plankton database. COPEPODITE: The global time-series directory and time series analysis toolkit. NAUPLIUS: Ecosystems data products and visualization tools. COPEPEDIA: Taxonomic information photos and biometric data. This database provides fisheries and marine ecosystems investigators with an integrated data set of quality reviewed globally distributed plankton data along with any available co-sampled environmental hydrographic and meteorological data. These data are provided in a variety of forms e.g. spatial mean fields time-series graphical maps and figures and compilations e.g. from individual data sets to regional or taxa based compilations.
Want to know what the Australian coastline may look like in 2100? Coastal Risk Australia (CRA) has been developed to show you just that. It is an interactive map tool designed to communicate coastal inundation associated with sea level rise to the year 2100. Using Google Earth Engine technology, CRA allows you to investigate the extent of coastal inundation using the latest 3D models of the Australian coastline. Data have been captured using airborne LiDAR technology to create detailed digital elevation models (DEMs), which are then combined with ‘bucket-fill’ inundation modelling to create the map-based visualisations. This capability has been developed through long term investments and partnerships between FrontierSI and NGIS Australia. The DEMs which underpin the inundation models are now available for download from Geoscience Australia at http://www.ga.gov.au/elvis/.

The data provided in this tool has been developed to help communicate the risks of sea level rise and storm surge. The data is not provided as professional advice, and should not be relied upon for site specific decision making or for making financial or any other commitments.
While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy and correctness of materials presented, the developers make no expressed or implied warranties (including warranties of merchantability and fitness) with respect to the accuracy, completeness, character, function, or capabilities of the tool and the data and images accessed through it. Appropriate use and conclusions drawn from the data and images are the responsibility of the user.
The developers expressly disclaims liability for any loss, however caused and whether due to negligence or otherwise, arising directly or indirectly from the use of, or reliance on, this visualisation tool or the information contained in it, by any person.
The Coastal Risk Australia website does not include the dynamic response of unconsolidated shorelines (eg. sand, mud and shell) or the increase in tidal flows in coastal waterways that will result from different coastal configurations in some locations. Nor does the model take account of the effects of catchment flooding from coincident extreme rainfall events. More detailed local study may be required to ensure that particular local circumstances and dynamics are adequately considered in any adaptation response to sea level rise.

Coriolis Ocean Dataset for Reanalysis (CORA) (ODIS id: 801)
The CORA dataset (Coriolis Ocean Dataset for Reanalysis) aims to diffuse all types of in-situ temperature and salinity measurements with a maximal sampling, including high frequency profilers (ARGO, CTD, etc...) surface and sub-surface timeseries (Thermosalinographs and surface drifters, etc...). The current version of the CORA dataset (CORA5.0) stands out from the previous version by the intake of millions profiles from the historical period (1950-1990) and the intake of year 2015 profiles from Coriolis. A very careful validation process is performed on the CORA measurements since the probably erroneous profiles are individually checked by an oceanographer which changes the data quality flags if necessary. This work flow reduces the amount of unnecessary flags leading to a better estimation of the ocean variability. Last, a correction is applied on the XBT measurement depth following the method bu Hamon et al. 2012. The CORA dataset is distributed by the Copernicus Marine and Environement Service online catalogue: Product User Manual and Documentation are also distributed by Copernicus.

Geographic Information Systems have become indispensable tools in managing and displaying marine data and information. However, a unique georeferenced standard of marine place names and areas was not available, hampering several marine geographic applications, for example the linking of these locations to databases to integrate data. The purpose of Marine Regions is therefore to create a standard, relational list of geographic names, coupled with information and maps of the geographic location of these features. This will improve access and clarity of the different geographic, marine names such as seas, sandbanks, ridges and bays and display univocally the boundaries of marine biogeographic or managerial marine areas.
Marine Regions is an integration of the VLIMAR Gazetteer and the VLIZ Maritime Boundaries Geodatabase. The VLIMAR Gazetteer is a database with geographic, mainly marine names such as seas, sandbanks, seamounts, ridges, bays or even standard sampling stations used in marine research. The geographic cover of the VLIMAR gazetteer is global but initially focused on the Belgian Continental Shelf and the Scheldt Estuary and the Southern Bight of the North Sea. Gradually more regional and global geographic information was added to VLIMAR and combining this information with the Maritime Boundaries database, representing the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of the world, led to the creation of marineregions.org.
Marine Regions is managed by the Flanders Marine Institute. Funding for the creation of the VLIMAR gazetteer was provided initially through the EU Network of Excellence MarBEF, but also other European initiatives such as Lifewatch provide the necessary funding for the maintenance and management of Marine Regions.
Marine Regions depends on data and knowledge sharing from global, European, regional and national data providers and relevant experts. By setting up Collaboration Agreements, data providers will benefit from belonging to the Marine Regions partnership as they would get increased visibility, gain access to a variety of data analysis services which will benefit from integration of several distributed spatial datasets, as well as enjoying the benefit of the creation of stable unique identifiers. An example template of a Collaboration Agreement can be found here. Please contact info@marineregions.org if your organisation is interested to explore this collaboration.

Electronic guide to the natural environment of the Caspian Sea (ODIS id: 266)
Electronic guide to the natural environment of the Caspian Sea
The Caspian Sea is inland and is located in an extensive continental depression on the border of Europe and Asia. The Caspian Sea has no connection with the ocean, which formally allows us to call it a lake, but it has all the features of the sea. It is elongated in the meridional direction and is located between 47 degrees. 07 minutes and 36 degrees. 33 minutes s.sh. and 45 degrees. 43 minutes and 54 degrees. 03 minutes v.d. The length of the sea along the meridian is about 1200 km, the average width is 310 km. The sea area at a level mark of 27.5 m BS is 386.4 thousand km.
textPhysically and geographically and according to the nature of the underwater relief, the sea is divided into three parts: northern, middle, and southern. The conditional border between the northern and middle parts runs along the line of Chechen Island - Cape Tyub-Karagan, between the middle and southern parts - along the line of Chechen Island. Residential - M. Kuuli.
The northern part of the sea is shallow, its average depth is 5 - 6 m, maximum depths of 15 - 20 m are located on the border with the middle part of the sea. The bottom relief is complicated by the presence of banks, islands, Borozdin.
The middle part of the sea is a separate basin, the area of the maximum depths of which - the Derbent depression - is shifted to the western coast. The average depth of this part of the sea is 190 m, the greatest is 788 m. The western slope of the Derbent depression is narrow and steep, the eastern slope is strongly stretched. The bottom of the depression is a slightly sloping plain with depths mainly from 400 to 600 m.
The southern part of the sea is separated from the middle Absheron threshold, which is a continuation of the Main Caucasian ridge. The depths above this underwater ridge do not exceed 180 m. The deepest part of the South Caspian Basin with a maximum depth of 1025 m for the sea is located east of the Kura delta. Several underwater ridges up to 500 m high rise above the bottom of the basin.
Meteorological conditions in different parts of the Caspian Sea are not the same due to its large meridional length. The northern part of the sea is characterized by the prevalence of east and south-east winds for most of the year. In the middle part, winds of the northwestern and southeastern directions prevail, in the area of the Absheron Peninsula due to the orographic effect - the winds of the northern and southern directions. In the southern part of the sea, north and north-east winds prevail in the south-west, north-west winds prevail in the extreme south-east in winter, and south-east in summer.
Strong and stormy winds, mainly of northwestern and southeastern directions, are observed most often in spring and winter near the western coast of the Middle Caspian, especially in the area of the Absheron Peninsula.
Average annual air temperatures vary from 10 degrees C in the northern part of the sea to 17 degrees C in the south. The coldest month is January, the warmest are July and August.
The distribution of precipitation over the sea area is extremely uneven. At the western coast of the southern part of the sea, it ranges from 65 (Oil Rocks) to 1250 mm per year (Lankaran zone). North of the Absheron Peninsula, the amount of precipitation is 400 - 430 mm. The eastern coast is dry, the maximum amount of precipitation does not exceed 15 - 20 mm.
Ice appears in the northern part of the sea every November. In severe winters, the entire water area of the northern part is covered with ice; in mild winters, the ice stays in shallow water within the 2 - 3 meter isobath. The appearance of ice in the middle and southern parts of the sea occurs in December - January.
The water temperature is subject to latitudinal changes, most pronounced in winter, when the temperature changes from 0 - 0.5 degrees C at the ice edge in the north of the sea to 10 - 11 degrees C in the south, i.e. the difference in water temperature is about 10 degrees C. The summer period is characterized by horizontal uniformity in the temperature distribution in the surface layer: in the middle part of the sea 24 - 25 degrees C, in the southern part 25 - 26 degrees C, in the southeast up to 27 - 28 degrees. C. The maximum water temperature is observed in August. Seasonal changes in water temperature are noticeable in the upper 100-meter layer. In the bottom layers of the sea, the temperature during the year is about 4.5 degrees C in the middle part and 5.8 - 5.9 degrees. From the south.
The salinity of water changes especially sharply in the northern part of the sea: from 0.1 ‰ in the mouth areas of the Volga and the Urals to 10 -11 ‰ on the border with the Middle Caspian. In the middle and southern parts of the sea, salinity fluctuations are small. Basically, it is 12.6 - 13.0 ‰, increasing from north to south and from west to east. Salinity increases insignificantly with depth (by 0.1 - 0.2.).
The level of the Caspian Sea is subject to significant fluctuations due to changes in the water balance and, above all, in the Volga runoff. During the historical time, sea level has undergone significant fluctuations, continuing in modern conditions. The annual course of the level is characterized by a maximum in June - July and a minimum in February. The range of intra-annual fluctuations is 30 - 35 cm. Surge fluctuations of the level are manifested throughout the sea, but they are most significant in the shallow northern part, where, with maximum surges, the level can increase by 2.0 - 4.5 m, with surges, decrease by 1, 0 - 2.5 m.

ERSP on hydrometeorological regime of the Laptev Sea
The electronic regime reference manual (ERS) on the hydrometeorological regime of the Laptev Sea is a reference book containing information on the climatic characteristics of the marine environment of the sea.
The ERSP was prepared on the basis of the initial domestic and foreign data of hydrometeorological observations accumulated in the State Fund of the Federal State Budgetary Institution "VNIIGMI-MCD" for a long time period.
The ERA is aimed at a wide range of users associated with the study and practical use of the natural resources of the oceans and seas. It contains extensive tabular and cartographic materials without their textual scientific analysis and does not replace other climatic publications of similar topics. It also presents a general climatic description of the region under study, prepared based on materials.
The ERSP is based on the calculated data of operating characteristics in the coastal zone of the sea, obtained from the results of urgent observations at the network of coastal hydrometeorological stations (GMR) and posts (GMP), and data from oceanographic and marine hydrometeorological observations in the open part of the Laptev Sea, including secular stations. cuts. As design parameters of the marine environment, we used such characteristics as water and air temperature, salinity, conditional water density, sea level, wind and wave characteristics, oxygen content, and sound speed.
In terms of structure, the ERSP consists of three parts. Its first part provides general background information on the sources of information that forms the basis of calculations. For the coastal zone of the sea, a map is given with the location of coastal observation points, as well as passport data on the GMR (names of stations, their code numbers, coordinates, and observation periods). For the open sea, maps of the water area illumination by observations and reference tables, respectively, for ship hydrometeorological and deep-sea oceanographic observations with the number and period of observations for individual one-degree squares of Marsden and stations of secular sections are provided.
In the second part of the ERSP, tabular and graphic materials with the climatic characteristics of the coastal zone of the Laptev Sea are given, containing the calculated data of the average and extreme values of the parameters and their recurrence over long-term months, as well as characteristics of the interannual variability of the parameters.
The third part of the ERSP contains the results of calculations of the climatic characteristics of the marine environment of the open sea with the presentation of maps of the calculated hydrometeorological and oceanographic fields on the sea surface and on individual observation horizons. In a tabular form, for all one-degree squares and stations of secular sections, statistics of monthly average and extreme values of parameters at standard horizons are given. In general, for the entire water area of the sea, the recurrences of parameter values for multiyear months and their annual variation were calculated.
The ERSP has a laser disk with the results of climatic data processing and a software application for accessing them and is supplemented by an NTML version oriented to a standard Internet browser.

For the open sea, maps of the water area illumination by observations and reference tables, respectively, for ship hydrometeorological and deep-sea oceanographic observations with the number and period of observations for individual one-degree squares of Marsden and stations of secular sections are provided.
In the second part of the ERSP, tabular and graphic materials with the climatic characteristics of the coastal zone of the East Siberian Sea are given, containing the calculated data of the average and extreme values of the parameters and their recurrence over long-term months, as well as the characteristics of the interannual variability of the parameters.
The third part of the ERSP contains the results of calculations of the climatic characteristics of the marine environment of the open sea with the presentation of maps of the calculated hydrometeorological and oceanographic fields on the sea surface and on individual observation horizons. In a tabular form, for all one-degree squares and stations of secular sections, statistics of monthly average and extreme values of parameters at standard horizons are given. In general, for the entire water area of the sea, the recurrences of parameter values for multiyear months and their annual variation were calculated.
The ERSP has a laser disk with the results of climatic data processing and a software application for accessing them and is supplemented by an NTML version oriented to a standard Internet browser.

Abstract
The electronic regime reference manual (ERS) on the hydrometeorological regime of the East Siberian Sea is a reference book containing information on the climatic characteristics of the marine environment of the sea.
The ERSP was prepared on the basis of the initial domestic and foreign data of hydrometeorological observations accumulated in the State Fund of the Federal State Budgetary Institution "VNIIGMI-MCD" for a long time period.
The ERA is aimed at a wide range of users associated with the study and practical use of the natural resources of the oceans and seas. It contains extensive tabular and cartographic materials without their textual scientific analysis and does not replace other climatic publications of similar topics. It also presents a general climatic description of the region under study, prepared based on materials.
The ERSP is based on the calculated data of operating characteristics in the coastal zone of the sea, obtained from the results of urgent observations at the network of marine coastal hydrometeorological stations (HMS) and posts (GMP), and data from oceanographic and marine hydrometeorological observations in the open part of the East Siberian Sea, including stations of secular sections. As design parameters of the marine environment, we used such characteristics as water and air temperature, salinity, conditional water density, sea level, wind and wave characteristics, oxygen content, and sound speed.
In terms of structure, the ERSP consists of three parts. Its first part provides general background information on the sources of information that forms the basis of calculations. For the coastal zone of the sea, a map is given with the location of coastal observation points, as well as passport data on the GMR (names of stations, their code numbers, coordinates, and observation periods). For the open sea, maps of the water area illumination by observations and reference tables, respectively, for ship hydrometeorological and deep-sea oceanographic observations with the number and period of observations for individual one-degree squares of Marsden and stations of secular sections are provided.

Events and Probabilities - European Geological Data Infrastructure
These datasets represent a systematic collection of harmonised data concerning geological events. The current update consists of 12 new GIS layers at a resolution of 1:100,000 scale concerning earthquakes, submarine landslides, volcanoes, tsunamis, fluid emissions and Quaternary tectonics, subdivided according to their geometry (polygons, points and lines). These products complement and update the 1:250,000 scale GIS layers already displayed on the Portal. They provide information on the type of events which have taken place in the past and might potentially occur again, including dimensions, state of activity, morphological type and lithology.
The elaboration of guidelines to compile GIS layers was aimed at identifying parameters to be used to thoroughly characterise each event. Particular attention has been devoted to the definition of the Attribute tables in order to achieve the best degree of harmonisation and standardisation complying with the European INSPIRE Directive.

Geoinformation portal 2020 - National Biodiversity Information System (SNIB)
Geoinformation portal is a geographic information portal where you can consult, view and download thematic cartography of different scales generated and compiled by CONABIO. Open-source software was used to develop this portal.
The main characteristics of the portal are to develop access mechanisms to CONABIO's geographic data collections through specialized information services, such as:
- Graphic view of the information by general topics.
- Detailed information on cartography available through metadata searches.
- Download information in a compatible format ( shapefile )
- The cartographic information is administered by the Geographic Information Systems Sub-Directorate.
The consultation of this information is made through a general classification of topics, under the following headings: SNIB, Biodiversity, Topography, Hydrology, Edaphology geology, Climatology, Vegetation and land use, Political division, Population, Infrastructure, Regionalization, Satellite products, Risk, Production.
Each of the previous topics, in turn, have subtopics, for example, for the heading of "topography" there are subtopics of land topography, marine topography, and General information.
As a requirement for a cartographic topic to be published on the portal, the geographic metadata must be included. For the generation of metadata, it was necessary to consult the formats already established for geographic information and; Among the different formats are: Graphic Representation NBII Content of Standard (1995), NBII Content of Standard for National Biological Information Infrastructure Metadata (December 1995), FDGC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (1994) and Dublin Core and ISO-19115, among others.
The metadata format used in this portal is the FGDC which presents the following items, which serve as an important source in the search of the system:
Identification information,
Quality of the information,
Spatial attributes,
Reference system,
Non-spatial attributes,
Information distribution,
Contact.
The cartographic information is available online for free in shapefile format and in two reference systems: geographic coordinates (degrees, minutes, and seconds) and metric coordinates (Lambert Conformal Conic or Mercator Universal Transverse Conic) with the DATUM WGS84 parameters.

GeoNetwork - FAO
FAO GeoNetwork's purpose is to improve access to and integrated use of spatial data and information, to support decision making, to promote multidisciplinary approaches to sustainable development, and to enhance understanding of the benefits of geographic information.
GeoNetwork opensource allows us to easily share geographically referenced thematic information between different organizations.
The FAO GeoNetwork provides Internet access to interactive maps, satellite imagery and related spatial databases maintained by FAO and its partners.
It's purpose is to improve access to and integrated use of spatial data and information.
Through this website FAO facilitates multidisciplinary approaches to sustainable development and supports decision making in agriculture, forestry, fisheries and food security.
Maps, including those derived from satellite imagery, are effective communicational tools and play an important role in the work of various types of users:
Decision Makers: e.g. Sustainable development planners and humanitarian and emergency managers in need of quick, reliable and up to date user-friendly cartographic products as a basis for action and better plan and monitor their activities.
GIS Experts in need of exchanging consistent and updated geographical data.
Spatial Analysts in need of multidisciplinary data to perform preliminary geographical analysis and reliable forecasts to better set up appropriate interventions in vulnerable areas.
The FAO GeoNetwork allows to easily share spatial data among different FAO Units, other UN Agencies, NGO's and other institutions.
The FAO GeoNetwork site is powered by GeoNetwork opensource.
FAO and WFP, UNEP and more recently OCHA, have combined their research and mapping expertise to develop GeoNetwork opensource as a common strategy to effectively share their spatial databases including digital maps, satellite images and related statistics. The three agencies make extensive use of computer-based data visualization tools, known as Geographic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) software, mostly to create maps that combine various layers of information. GeoNetwork opensource provides them with the capacity to access a wide selection of maps and other spatial information stored in different databases around the world through a single entry point.
GeoNetwork opensource has been developed to connect spatial information communities and their data using a modern architecture, which is at the same time powerful and low cost, based on the principles of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and International and Open Standards for services and protocols (a.o. from ISO/TC211 and OGC).

Layers contain contoured world-wide data; Platforms include icons for various observing assets, some of which display real-time data and many of which include links to data and metadata. For a given asset measuring carbonate chemistry, metadata includes information on which parameters are measured, links to data providers, and other useful details. The inventory of GOA-ON assets can be searched interactively by region, platform type, and variables by using the Filters tool.

The Global Runoff Data Centre (GRDC) is an international archive of data up to 200 years old and fosters multinational and global long-term hydrological studies. Originally established three decades ago, the aim of the GRDC is to help earth scientists analyse global climate trends and assess environmental impacts and risks. Operating under the auspices of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) the database of quality controlled “historical” mean daily and monthly discharge data grows steadily and currently comprises river discharge data of more than 9500 stations from 161 countries.
The exchange of hydrological data and information on a global scale is the principal reason for operating GRDC. National Hydrological and Hydro-Meteorological Services as primary providers of river discharge data and associated metadata and the scientific research community utilising this unique data collection are partners connected by GRDC. Positioned as a facilitator for exchanges between data providers and data users, the GRDC has become a focal point for international cooperation. Researchers, universities and other organizations make use of the facilities available for research programmes and projects.

GLODAPv2 is described in two publications in Earth System Science Data (Olsen et al., 2016 and Lauvset et al., 2016) and in one NDP document (Olsen et al., 2017). The NDP is a brief summary of the two ESSD papers. Full citations are provided below.
Whenever GLODAPv2 is used, the following citations must be included:
For data and data product: Olsen et al., 2016 and Key et al., 2015
For mapped product: Lauvset et al., 2016 and Key et al., 2015
Citing the Earth System Science Data publications is essential as this gives the team traceable citations and also enables tracking of GLODAPv2 use. This is important for justifying and sustaining the effort.

Historical Charts - General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans
The GEBCO chart series was initiated in 1903 by Prince Albert I of Monaco - providing information on the shape and depth of the global seafloor. Through the 20th Century, there were five paper editions of the charts series before GEBCO released its first digital products in the early 1990s.
The GEBCO chart archive is available to view online from the International Hydrographic Organization's web site.
Further information about GEBCO's history and the history of seafloor mapping during the 20th Century can be found in the History of GEBCO book.
Access a poster, from the Forum for Ocean Floor Mapping, showing the progression of how the Mid-Atlantic Ridge was portrayed on GEBCO's charts through the 20th Century to GEBCO's digital bathymetric grid in 2014.
