What it is all about
MY OCEAN
Marine
Core
Service
MyOcean: a service, a team, a project
Marine Core Service

MyOcean is a SERVICE
–
–
–
–
The main component of the « GMES » Marine Service
Global & Regional Ocean monitoring and forecasting
Information based on Data Combination and assimilative Models
Currents, Temperature, Salinity, Sea level, Ice, ….
• GMES Marine Service

MyOcean is a TEAM of European partners
– 61 partners out of 29 countries ; ~450 people involved
– 20 core partners committed for operations; european best
monitoring and forecasting systems
• Pan-European team

MyOcean is a PROJECT
– An EC/FP7 project, the GMES « Marine Fast Track » project
– 3 years ; has started on 1st April 2009, will end 31 March 2012
– Budget 18 M€/year, with 11 M€/year EC funding
• 2009 – 2010 – 2011 – 2012

Baltic Sea MFC: Model development
Marine Core Service
Goal: Integrate existing operational Baltic Sea models
into one operational forecasting system:
HIROMB-BOOS-Model HBM
HBM V2
Time
HBM V1
FMI & MSI
HBM V0

Baltic Sea MFC: The HBM physical model
Marine Core Service

HBM V1
• Currently running at SMHI, DMI, BSH. (FMI to follow.)
• 2 daily 60 hour forecasts (00Z and 12Z).
• 3 nautical mile horizontal grid, 17 vertical output levels (V1).
• (DMI and BSH run high resolution nested grids in the Danish
Straits and German Bight.)
• Output Parameters – sea level, ice cover, ice thickness,
current (u, v), salinity, temperature.
• Data assimilation (SMHI & DMI) – SST, sea ice, salt and
temperature from IceMap, satellite, ferrybox and buoys.
• Output to 3nm grid in NetCDF format.
Baltic Sea MFC: The HBM biochemical models
Marine Core Service

HBM V1
• Coupled to biogeochemical model:
• HBM-ERGOM (DMI)
• HIROMB-SCOBI (SMHI)
• V1 Operational since June 1st 2011
• 20 year reanalysis, HBM V2 since December 15th 2011
