Regional STOrm, WAve and SUrge Scenarios for the 2100 century (STOWASUS-2100)
Aims to study severe storms, surges and waves in the present climate and in a scenario with increased CO2-concentration. More specifically the project is a joint atmospheric/oceanographic numerical modelling effort aiming at constructing and analysing st

Global AssimilatioN Applied to Modelling of European Shelf Seas (GANES)
This EU-CEO project will use satellite altimeter and radiometer data assimilated into global ocean models, to provide ocean current, temperature and salinity boundary conditions for shelf and coastal models which predict sea-levels and currents around Eu

North East Atlantic, Greenland-Iceland-Norwegian sea experiment (NEAT GIN)
The NEAT GIN experiment took place during September-October 1989 at the Norwegian shelf edge near 68°N. Seven moorings, five in a closely-spaced cross-slope section, have proved a valuable precursor to the Shelf Edge Study (SES) west of Scotland. The NEA

Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) Project
Provides quantitative data on global ocean bio-optical properties to the Earth science community. Subtle changes in ocean color signify various types and quantities of marine phytoplankton (microscopic marine plants), the knowledge of which has both scie

Atmospheric Chemistry Studies in the Oceanic Environment (ACSOE)
A UK NERC Thematic Research Programme to investigate the chemistry of the lower atmosphere (0 - 12 km) over the oceans. The studies aim to bring about a clearer understanding of natural processes in the remote marine atmosphere, and how these processes

NERC Autosub Missions Thematic Programme (Autosub)
aims ultimately to provide scientists with the capability to collect routine physical, biological, chemical and geophysical data, to depths of 6000 metres and over transects of several thousands of kilometres via autonomous underwater vehicles.
