Description
The funding is for projects that seek to enhance ocean models for climate projections covering regional to coastal scales and seasonal to decadal timeframes. These improved models will aid the sustainability of the blue economy, protect ocean health, and preserve coastal landscapes.
Objectives:
Project outputs and results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes:
- Fit for purpose and configuration demonstration of ocean models for climate change impact assessment in European sea basins, marine ecosystems and coastal areas;
- Coastal ocean climate services demonstration at an EU basin scale to support policy implementation and the development of climate adaptation strategies and of a carbon-neutral blue economy;
- Development and publication of indicators on ocean status and health, targeted towards territorial decision-makers, that complement and support current Global Climate Observing System (GCOS) Essential Climate Variables or Copernicus Ocean State Reports;
- Integration or interoperability of the developments with Destination Earth and the Digital Twin Ocean;
- Fostered collaboration between the climate science community and operational oceanography communities.
