Project ID 549RER2012

Oceans are a part of our earth system, providing a wealth of resources. However, there are gaps in ocean observing and forecasting systems, limiting our capacity to sustainably manage the ocean and its resources. Ocean observing is "big science" and cannot be solved by individual nations; we need coordinate and sustain ocean observations long term. EuroSea brings together key European actors of ocean observation and forecasting, our vision is a truly interdisciplinary ocean observing system that delivers the essential ocean information needed for the wellbeing, blue growth and sustainable management of the ocean. EuroSea will strengthen the European and Global Ocean Observing System.
