Abstract
The overall objective of the MEDAR/MEDATLAS II project was to make available a comprehensive data product of temperature, salinity and biochemical data in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea, through a wide co-operation of the Mediterranean countries. It aims to contribute to increasing the use of the data collected within the scientific programs, to enhance the exchange of information and data between projects and to improve the overall level of data quality, especially for handling oxygen and nutrients data.
It is a European MAST/INCO concerted action and a regional contribution to UNESCO/IOC's Global Ocean Data Archeology and Rescue (GODAR) project. See also http://www.ifremer.fr/medar/
