EMODnet

EMODnet's latest blog by Dr. Conor Delaney highlights the power of international cooperation in marine data sharing through the #ERDDAP data server. Developed by #NOAA, ERDDAP addresses key challenges in making marine and atmospheric data more accessible, findable, and interoperable. Learn how EMODnet leverages this open-source technology to centralize marine data and support the European Digital Twin Ocean initiative. 🌍 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/g-M4hg9r NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration EDITO - European Digital Twin Ocean Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) - Suomen ympäristökeskus (Syke) Geological Survey of Finland (GTK) / Geologian tutkimuskeskus (GTK) ETT S.p.A.

🚨 New EMODnet Human Activities Data Sets Released! 🚨 In August 2024, two new EMODnet Human Activities data sets made their debut, offering vital insights for marine and environmental management: 1️⃣ Fish Quotas by Fishery Management Zone This dataset reports total allowable catches (TACs), as Initial Quantity and Adapted Quota, providing catch limits for fish species by Fishery Management Zone (FMZ). The data spans from 2012 to the present and will be updated annually. It is recommended to download the dataset to access the full range of attributes and information. A valuable resource developed by EMODnet Human Activities thematic, in cooperation with DG MARE, offering detailed insights into fishery quotas and management zones. 2️⃣ UNESCO World Heritage Coastal Sites This dataset includes the location and details of coastal UNESCO World Heritage sites. It provides key information on cultural and natural coastal sites, classified according to European Commission guidelines. It features site names, codes, proximity to coastlines, and site descriptions, offering a wealth of data for cultural heritage and environmental studies. 🔗 Explore both datasets here: Fish Quotas Dataset: https://lnkd.in/e63j8Q8N and UNESCO Coastal Sites Dataset: https://lnkd.in/exim22Rg #MarineData #FisheryManagement #UNESCO #CoastalConservation #Sustainability #EMODnet #DataScience

👏 The OceanICU Decision Support Tools Webinar was a Technical Masterclass! We learned how EMODnet and Copernicus Marine, via the EDITO platform, help OceanICU use Big Data to build its decision support tools, and how the project will use Machine Learning with Big Data. Special thanks to our expert panellists Conor Delaney Jorn Bruggeman Patrizio Mariani and Marina T. for sharing their work in leading new innovative pathways toward providing crucial data needed in support of the EU Mission "Restore our Ocean and Waters by 2030" 💡 Missed the session?

🌊 New Resource for Marine Management and Conservation 🌍 EMODnet Seabed Habitats has launched a comprehensive Map Library of Benthic Habitat Maps, offering valuable data for marine management, conservation, and research. These maps provide detailed insights into the seabed, helping to inform sustainable practices and policy decisions across Europe. 📥 Explore the Map Library here: https://lnkd.in/e-4r_N94 Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) - Suomen ympäristökeskus (Syke) European Marine Board IVZW Marine Institute JNCC #MarineScience #BenthicHabitats #MarineConservation #EMODnet #SeabedHabitats

🌊 New European data collection on #eutrophication and #acidity EMODnet published the first validated European eutrophication and acidity dataset, covering all European seas with more than 1.3 million observation stations. This rich dataset enables interactive analysis and ready-to-use visualizations for researchers and policymakers. More information 👇

🌊 What an inspiring week at #ICESASC24! 🌊 The EMODnet Secretariat had an inspiring week connecting with the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) community at their Annual Science Conference 2024 in Newcastle, UK. EMODnet had an exhibition stand and spoke in sessions ranging from Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to marine data services, standards and best practices and dialogue with early career researchers on career pathways in marine data services. 🚀 EMODnet Technical Coordinator Conor Delaney co-chaired an exciting session on how #ArtificialIntelligence and #MachineLearning can be used in marine science, fisheries and wider societal applications, with many excellent presentations by the ICES community. Conor also updated the ICES community about the European Digital Twin Ocean developments and the joint effort by EMODnet and CMEMS, via the EDITO - European Digital Twin Ocean platform, which has created a cutting-edge data lake for #MarineData and #MachineLearning tools—a cloud-based community platform that is driving innovation and collaboration across the sector and delving into crucial topics like acoustic ecology, marine food webs, and fisheries management models, sparking valuable discussions and knowledge exchange. 👩🔬 Spotlight on Early Career Scientists: We were also thrilled to see early career scientists exploring the “seas of data” and gaining essential insights into best practices in marine data management. In a joint session co-organised by EMODnet and ICES, Kate Larkin (Head, EMODnet Secretariat) and Maria Makri (ICES Secretariat) shared their career paths to-date and presented on the EMODnet and ICES data services respectively, sharing their knowledge and experience to guide the next generation of marine scientists. 📊 A big thank you to everyone who joined us and engaged in our sessions at #ICESASC24 🌍 Stay tuned for more updates and opportunities to get involved with EMODnet! https://lnkd.in/gTFQ929G #MarineScience #OceanData #Sustainability #Innovation #DataScience #BlueEconomy #EarlyCareerResearchers #AIinScience
